Showing Up Whole In the Therapy Room: Doing Relational Work with Queer and Trans People of Color
Manage episode 390554940 series 3519350
Applying relational psychotherapy frameworks when working with Queer and Trans clients of color often will require an anti-expressive lens whereby as therapists we must dismantle dominant narratives that shape QTPOC communities. To translate the work into something concrete in the therapy session requires our own self examination of positionality, use of language, and reframing QTPOC experiences. In this episode, we speak with Jordan Alam, a therapist and writer who speaks about how to build a relational understanding in a more nuanced and transformative space for healing and growth for QTPOC clients.
