I was pretty blessed, I had one of those based therapists. I had no idea how lucky I was til hearing people's experiences with bad therapists. I would complain about how overwhelmed I felt by political stuff, racism, capitalism etc (in 2020) and she would say I was correct to feel that way and just gave me tools to help deal with it when the feeling was too much. I would talk about wanting to protest or take bigger actions and she would encourage me, suggesting even joining a politically active org or starting my own.
