Workshop Description: This workshop will be interactive and engaging. The purpose of this workshop is to further deepen your work as antiracist, especially when it comes to therapy and the work you do with clients. We will talk about different models of therapy and how they can be bridged to have an antiracist lens. Storytelling is a part of the fabric of the workshop. Participants will be encouraged to share their experiences and expertise. 

Workshop Objectives:

1. Further therapist's awareness of racist automatic responses. 

2. Gather new ideas about how to show up in an anti-racist or non-racist way in the therapy space. 

3. Make a plan for more study and understanding of anti-racist practice, group development, newsletter add-ons and day to day efforts.
