Dr. Bill Johnson: Navigating Relationship Dynamics in an Interracial Relationship | Reloscope #16

Interracial relationships can be a beautiful thing, but they also come with a unique set of challenges. Navigating the clash of cultures can be complex and difficult, especially when faced with a lack of support from family or societal stigma. So, how can you successfully navigate these issues when your partner comes from a different cultural background?

In this episode of Reloscope: The Relationships Science Insights Podcast, host Aditi Kutty dives deep into this topic with Dr. Bill Johnson – a Licensed Clinical Psychologist. Dr. Johnson is an expert in anti-racism, equity, and social justice, having published scholastic articles and delivered presentations on culturally competent psychotherapy, anti-racism, and psychotherapy with African American men at national and international conferences. Additionally, he is a Mindful Self-Compassion teacher and has a certificate in Mindfulness and Psychotherapy from the Institute of Mindful Psychotherapy.

But that's not all! Dr. Johnson is also a sex therapist who specializes in providing psychotherapy to individuals and couples experiencing sex and sexuality related concerns. He is sex-positive and focuses his practice on men’s sexual concerns, as well as kink, BDSM, and Polyamory communities. As a member of various professional organizations, including the Australian Psychological Society, the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapist, and the American Psychological Association, Dr. Johnson has a wealth of experience in his field.

Originally from St. Louis, MO, USA, Dr. Johnson received his bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Central Missouri and earned his Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Wright State University School of Professional Psychology in Dayton, Ohio. When he's not busy practicing psychology, Dr. Johnson enjoys sports, traveling, and indulging in his love of movies.

Join Aditi and Dr. Johnson in this engaging and informative episode as they discuss the complexities of navigating interracial relationships and the importance of anti-racism, mindfulness, and sex-positivity in therapy.
