For too many Black women, accessing mental health care has historically been limited by cost, stigma, and a lack of culturally competent providers. The Loveland Foundation was created to change that, and in just a few years, has built one of the nation's most innovative models for expanding equitable access to therapy.
Host Carol Cone welcomes Sharlene Kemler, CEO of The Loveland Foundation, for an inspiring conversation about reimagining mental health through community, partnership, and listening. Sharlene shares how the Foundation evolved from a birthday fundraiser into a national organization and the work they’re doing now to strengthen the entire mental health ecosystem—from investing in therapists' well-being and professional development to continuously improving programs based on participant feedback.
Together, Carol and Sharlene explore why culturally competent care matters, how authentic partnerships create lasting impact, and why supporting both those seeking care and those providing it is essential to making mental health access truly sustainable.
