This episode of Sweet Tea features Austin-based clinical psychologist Peyton Jones, Psy.D., who specializes in relationship and sex therapy for LGBTQIA+ communities. From his roots in rural Ohio to his practice in the heart of Texas, Peyton has dedicated his work to helping queer and trans people connect with their bodies, embrace pleasure, and push back against the stigma and shame that too often shadow mental health. Together, we explore what it means to practice radical care in the South today, navigating the impact of hostile politics, cultivating resilience and joy, and building collective liberation through community, connection, and love.
