In The New Frontier of Social Justice: Cross-Cultural Compassion in Clinical Practice, Deran Young leads us into the new frontier of anti-oppression work for therapists and helping professionals worldwide.  You may register for this online training session at any time!

The next frontier for therapists is cultivating cross-cultural compassion. By understanding the root of our collective guilt and shame — racism, patriarchy, materialism, and individualism — and dismantling these four legacies, we can begin to repair and connect.

The 8 pre-recorded sessions explore:

• Session 1. Social Justice, Self Compassion & Shame Resilience
• Session 2. Prejudice, Power & Privilege
• Session 3. Legacy Burdens & Systems Thinking
• Session 4. Decentering Patriarchy and CisHet Privilege
• Session 5. Cognitive Behavioral Impact of Poverty
• Session 6. Isolation & Intergenerational Trauma
• Session 7. Developing a Change Plan
• Session 8. Integration & Application

-Develop cross-cultural connection so all your clients feel seen and respected, and you can prevent unintentional harm.

-Be aware of how race, class, and gender dynamics show up in your practice.

-Understand how power, privilege, and prejudice impact relationships.
