Description

Dive deep into the mental health needs of bisexual and queer communities of color with Dr. Tangela Roberts, a psychologist and researcher at the University of Buffalo. In this illuminating interview, Dr. Roberts shares her insights on identity development, the dual tracks of representation and policy, funding gaps that disproportionately affect bi+ individuals, despite being the majority of the LGBTQ+ population, and reveals how systemic barriers shape both healthcare and educational experiences for queer youth. Discover how embracing all parts of one’s identity can foster resilience, counter feelings of isolation, and fuel personal growth. From debunking damaging myths to championing intersectional research, Dr. Roberts offers practical steps for accessing community for the first time, finding supportive care, and affirming your full, authentic self. Tune in for expert guidance and actionable strategies! Dr. Tangela reminds us that embracing ourselves can feel scary while we try to anchor ourselves in a world that systemically diminishes bi+ voices and people of color as agendas. https://www.instagram.com/talk2drtangi/
