The Viva View
The Viva View was created by Dr Julie Lopez to disrupt the harmful and inaccurate labeling that is dominating the mental health landscape and keeping people sick. Joined by special guests, the podcast is a dynamic opportunity to redefine how we understand mental health from a “trauma-informed” perspective so that listeners can drop the labels, see a faster path to joy, and continue the critical conversation with others. Every month we delve into a label in mental health and how to more accurately understand it. You’ll hear about different first-hand experiences with courageous guests and surprising stories. Start listening to any episode or topic that interests you. So whether you have experienced the traps of mental health diagnostic labeling or not, there’ll be something to relate to in each episode and a reminder that you are not broken!
