What happens when a Black therapist turns his insider view of the mental health system into fiction?
On this episode of The Author’s Mic™, I’m joined by Chris Gamble — a mental health professional, publisher, and author of Tales of a Black Therapist and his new thriller Where We Are Free.
Instead of writing another self-help book, Chris is using story to challenge how we look at mental health, power, and systems.
In this conversation we get into:
🧠 How his work as a therapist shaped his storytelling
📚 Why he chose fiction instead of traditional self-help
🏙️ The world of Where We Are Free — a therapist vs. big tech, backed by an underground Black organization called The Village
🏢 Why he launched his own publishing company, Blank Passage, instead of stopping at KDP
🎮 His dream of one day writing for video games (because yes, someone has to write those stories too)
If you love:
– mental health conversations that go beyond “fix yourself” talk
– Black storytelling with depth and world-building
– thrillers that have something real to say
…this episode is absolutely for you.
