Sanity x ABCT: Harms in Therapy with Dr.’s Ilana Seager van Dyk and Alexandria Miller

This episode of the Sanity Podcast focuses on the harms caused by the misapplication of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), particularly towards minoritized populations. Guests Dr. Ilana Seager van Dyk and Dr. Alexandria Miller discuss their research on mental health disparities and the importance of culturally adaptive treatments. They address how misapplied therapeutic interventions can inadvertently harm LGBTQ+ and other minoritized groups by failing to consider the societal and structural factors affecting these individuals. The conversation also covers the significance of inclusive research, culturally responsive practice, and systemic changes within the mental health field to prevent further harm and ensure equity in mental health care.
