“Church and Therapy” Lenisha Phillips and LaNita Johnson

HONEY today we are talking about church AND therapy I have a very special guest for this touching episode. Her name is Lenisha Phillips. She is a singer, writer, podcast host and MUCH more!!! On this inspiring episode of "A Fresh Start Podcast," titled "Church and Therapy" Lenisha shares her story about her experiences of church and therapy within the African American Community. Y’all this episode is truly amazing. For so long therapy has been a taboo subject within the black community. It's ok to have faith and seek therapy, especially a Christian based counselor or therapist that aligns with your belief systems. I want to say that we are not licensed therapists, doctors, or specialists. On this show we share our real life journey and talk about real life topics and issues. As always you are not alone.
