You will benefit from this special program if…

  • You sometimes feel overwhelmed or at a loss when navigating difficult topics relating to identity, race, and culture
  • You occasionally grapple with how to be a culturally competent clinician or therapist

WHERE: ZOOM meeting info provided to all that RSVP
WHO: Facilitated by Siana Orun-Walker Director of Client Development & Initiatives of Paradigm Treatment
WHAT: Cultivating safe spaces for difficult conversations in clinical and therapeutic settings can be challenging. During this fast-paced and inspiring hour together, we will uncover unique challenges and opportunities inherent in exploring this growth edge for ourselves, our clients, and our communities. 
This process-style group will empower you with valuable information, interventions, and support to imbue your clients with confident, clear, and culturally sensitive, identity-affirming therapy.
We hope to see you there!
