A Counselling & Psychotherapy Perspective on Intersections of Privilege & Otherness
About this Event

Since 2020, when the world moved into Lockdown because of the Corona Virus, it seems that there has been a massive shift in our awareness and our approaches to issues of equality, diversity, privilege, and otherness. The deaths of George Floyd and Sarah Everard, together with the trials of the LGBTQ community and those who are neurodiverse, have meant that we have all collectively had to look at issues of privilege and otherness.

My work explores through a therapeutic lens how we might approach and work with the varying different communities who sit and reside in cities such as Bristol. This session will be part taught but also partly experiential and participants are encouraged to bring their own sense of difference and otherness for us all to explore and discuss in a safe and contained environment.

Event Learning Outcomes:

  1. At the end of this session practitioners will have an understanding of how an intersectional approach to issues of difference and diversity brings their own experience into the consulting room
  2. How working initially with one's own experience of privilege and otherness then allows us to empathise with our clients
  3. This session will enable practitioners to recognise where they are provoked by the unconscious material of those who are speaking about their experiences of difference and otherness
  4. This will help practitioners to provide a safe enough space for their clients in order to receive the difficult stories of difference and diversity
