We are celebrating Pride, so Dan called on Crossover clinical psychologist Dr. Matthew Chester to have a conversation on LGBT+ health, disparities, and his own personal experiences. Growing up as a gay man in the South, Matt now advocates for the LGBT+ community, with access to health and wellness as one of his clinical specialties and practice.   

With staggering statistics of the queer population experiencing discrimination in the healthcare system, hear how Matt dedicates his work to helping those who have experienced adversity not only cope, but thrive. And, hear how Dan gets a lesson on when to use what terms (sexual orientation vs. gender identity)—which might be helpful for those of us who are not LGBT+.

Stick around until the end to find out Matt’s ironic choice of podcasts and how his guilty pleasure stays true to his Texas roots.
