Reflective space for trans and non binary therapy practitioners
Gendered Intelligence is running an online (Zoom) facilitated reflective space for therapists and counsellors who are trans and/or non-binary. Our intention is to hold a space that meets the need for therapists and counsellors in the trans community to reflect in a peer space.
For block bookings or organisational discounts, please enquire by email to training@genderedintelligence.co.uk
The group is a space to collectively reflect on our experiences as peers and practitioners working in therapy and counselling, building a place of community, support and learning.
Who is eligible to join?
- Any therapists/counsellor who would describe themself as trans, non-binary, agender, genderfluid, gender-questioning or any identity within the broad ‘trans’ umbrella.
- This space is not open to cisgender practitioners.
- Both qualified and trainee practitioners are welcome.
- While client work may come up in discussions, it is not intended as the primary focus.
This will be a small group, between 4-10 people.
In recognition of the times we're living and working in, our summer reflective spaces will take 'The on-going impact of the Supreme Court Ruling & The EHRC's code of practice' as their theme. We really look forward to sharing space together and offering each other our support and solidarity in these really difficult times.
