Who’s in the Room? Black Women Therapists: Challenging the ‘Strong Black Woman’ Archetype Workshop with Mary Pascall

 

Back by popular demand – the workshop that inspired the first ever Black first Women Therapists UK One-Day Online Conference (1st June 2024). Who’s in the room? Black Women Therapists: Challenging the ‘Strong Black Woman’ Archetype offers a reflexive online space in which to explore the influence of the ‘Strong Black Woman’ Archetype on the psyche and clinical practice of Black/BIPOC women therapists.
