And now we are proud to present to you our 2nd full episode:  Therapy and Mental Health.  Extra special thanks to Ernie Tamayo for being our second podcast guest, and for sharing his experiences as a social worker with Asian Pacific Women’s Center (APWC). APWC offers support to survivors of domestic violence, so if you or someone you know needs help, they are a great organization to connect with.
