Racial Equity Resources
Therapy is an opportunity to process and heal from challenges and/or traumas, and integrate experiences to live a more full and empowered life.
Parent coaching focuses on identifying current parenting challenges and learning practical tools and solutions.
Equity work involves exploration and accountability on a personal level, while also deconstructing oppressive systems and reconstructing more equitable forms of power sharing.
There are so many great resources out there. I included some resources that I find helpful, and I tried to organize them in a way that also seems helpful, but the reality is that racism and associated concepts/constructs do to not fit neatly into categories. I am open to more resources and ideas about restructuring--just contact me here.
