About this event
Sneaky forces in our world like patriarchy, capitalism and white supremacy impact our relationships, functioning, overall wellness and mental health.
Despite knowing this, the mental health profession has a long way to go in combatting oppression. This 1 hour free event is a primer on how to think about mental health differently. For savvy mental health consumers and curious mental health professionals.
We'll be exploring how the mental health industry can sometimes perpetuate these harmful forces with or without knowing it. We'll discuss alternative and socially just ways of supporting people in counselling. Finally, you'll learn actionable ways to address and resist these harms in your own life and in the lives of your loved ones.
