In this episode, I speak with Holly Walters, a licensed professional counselor and Louisianan who has survived multiple major hurricanes. In Hurricane Ida, Holly lost her house. Then she went right back to providing mental health care to her storm-ravaged community.
What's it been like for Holly and her clients? And what has she learned from the experience that can help clinicians in other climate disasters in the future?
