GROUP CONSULTATION

I have transformed my two consultation groups below into one program. This is now an 8-week program for mental health practitioners who want to incorporate more anti-oppressive, social justice oriented, and liberation focused values in their practices. The program consists of one BIPoC cohort and one white-identified cohort.
