Helping Others and Activism

As you may have seen, there are some painful events happening in the US right now, especially affecting people of color. Many activists are speaking out, which I hope will bring about positive changes. As an American and as a therapist, this touches me deeply, and I have been reflecting on my role as a white person, a woman, and as a therapist on a global scale.

I feel that as therapists, we cannot limit our work to the counseling room, but should also be aware and active in our communities. I have decided to partner with the Loveland Foundation to start a campaign which provides free therapy to black women and girls in the US, who are in need of support.
