Issues like a lack of diversity amongst mental health professionals and stigmas around going to a therapist make it difficult for Black and brown people to get proper mental health treatment.
There are many barriers that prevent Black and brown people from accessing mental health services like the stigma that s attached to seeking help, lack of transportation, affordability and the lack of Black and brown therapists. But Black Space in Milwaukee is hoping to help change that.
Founded by Dr. Lia Knox, Darius Smith and Corey Fells, Black Space offers free, group therapy sessions to help normalize seeking professional help for mental health issues.
