Unsilencing the Self: Social Work, Community & Radical Listening with KaRon Spriggs-Bethea

KaRon talks about starting and growing a private practice focused on LGBTQIA+ and other marginalized individuals, and how clinical work informs her teaching and vice versa. He shares stories from internships at a Federal Public Defender’s office and a state hospital where relationship-building turned disengaged people into participants in treatment. KaRon outlines practical steps for finding community, large or intimate and stresses the importance of resources, curiosity, and stepping slightly outside your comfort zone. The interview is full of accessible insight for clinicians, students, people in recovery, and anyone supporting loved ones through healing.
