ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Mental health and tabletop RPGs go together like barbarians and battle axes. I've been playing and running games in multiple systems for almost thirty years. From Dungeons and Dragons to Vampire: The Masquerade and everything in between. I also have a masters degree in counseling and currently am a licensed chemical dependency counselor intern in the state of Texas. Come with me as I try to learn and teach about all the wonderful ways applied RPGs can step your game up.
