SUMMARY:Rogers Behavioral Health Nashville's Clinicians Corner
DESCRIPTION:Rogers Behavioral Health Nashville is excited to start Clinician’s Corner\, a monthly clinical collaboration space for therapists and behavioral health clinicians in the community. This group was created to offer a consistent space to think through cases with other clinicians\, troubleshoot challenges\, and stay grounded in evidence-based care. \nEach session is structured but flexible. We’ll spend a little time on a relevant clinical topic and then shift into open consultation and discussion. You’re welcome to bring a case\, a question\, or just come listen and connect. \nThis isn’t a lecture or a passive training—it’s a working space for clinicians who want to: \n\nTalk through “stuck” cases\nGet new ideas and perspectives\nStrengthen clinical decision-making\nBuild meaningful connections with other providers\n\nWhether you’re early in your career or have years of experience\, you’re welcome here. Would love to have you join us—feel free to reach out with any questions or to get connected.

SUMMARY:The Aunt Jemima Syndrome Group Session
DESCRIPTION:The Aunt Jemima Syndrome Group Therapy. \nWhat is Aunt Jemima Syndrome? As you know\, African American women often have the gift of helper\, organizer and healer. With this gift African American women may carry the invisible weight of always having to “do more” and “be more.” It addresses the deep-rooted anxiety\, guilt\, and emotional fatigue that often go unspoken–the constant self-questioning of “am I doing enough?” and the pressure to measure self-worth through productivity. Together\, we will explore the psychological and physical toll of what is known as The Aunt Jemima Syndrome-a condition rooted in historical stereotypes and systemic expectations placed on Black women to remain strong\, nurturing\, and self- sacrificing at all costs. \nI hope to see you in group therapy where we will learn to ground ourselves in self-love\, self-awareness\, and come out feeling revived\, refreshed and grateful. The sessions are 2 hours long\, and light refreshments will be served. All meetings are in-person. Group cost: $75

SUMMARY:The Aunt Jemima Syndrome Group Session
DESCRIPTION:The Aunt Jemima Syndrome Group Therapy. \nWhat is Aunt Jemima Syndrome? As you know\, African American women often have the gift of helper\, organizer and healer. With this gift African American women may carry the invisible weight of always having to “do more” and “be more.” It addresses the deep-rooted anxiety\, guilt\, and emotional fatigue that often go unspoken–the constant self-questioning of “am I doing enough?” and the pressure to measure self-worth through productivity. Together\, we will explore the psychological and physical toll of what is known as The Aunt Jemima Syndrome-a condition rooted in historical stereotypes and systemic expectations placed on Black women to remain strong\, nurturing\, and self- sacrificing at all costs. \nI hope to see you in group therapy where we will learn to ground ourselves in self-love\, self-awareness\, and come out feeling revived\, refreshed and grateful. The sessions are 2 hours long\, and light refreshments will be served. All meetings are in-person. Group cost: $75
