Dr. Wang works exclusively with women’s mental health issues across the lifespan with a specific focus on racial identity and trauma, social justice, and cultural reverence.

In this episode, Dr. Jenny Wang talks about the stigmatized relationship between mental health and Asian culture, the doubt expressed by her parents in pursuing social work, and how she is trying to bridge together her psychological practice and her own Asian American identity.
