Walk to the well.
Turn as the earth and the moon turn,
circling what they love.
Whatever circles comes from the center.
(Rumi, translation by Coleman Barks)
DESCRIPTION
This interactive workshop will invite looking into the well of what is already known -through the body and personal experience - for bringing about therapeutic change. Through clinical case scenarios, we will apply interlocking models from the Beyond Inclusion, Beyond Empowerment book. We will oscillate between experience and analysis with a focus on building musculature for sustained engagement in social justice in our healing and advocacy work.
This presentation will be based on the framework of anti-oppressive practices outlined in Dr. Nieto’s book, Beyond Inclusion, Beyond Empowerment. You can purchase the eBook version of Beyond Inclusion, Beyond Empowerment for $20. Until the website is set up for the eBook, people who are interested can get a copy by contacting Garth Johnson at garth@cuetzpalin.com. He will reply with a paypal link people can use for payment, and provide a copy of the book.
OBJECTIVES
- Participants will deepen abilities to effect change by examining operations of systemic structures in clinical settings.
- Participants will recognize the role of dynamics such as implicit bias, and micro-aggression's while addressing accountability when working with clients, colleagues, and supervisees.
- Participants will recognize, and learn to use. social justice wisdom inherent in embodiment and narrative when working with individuals, families and communities.
