About this Event

Join us for our May gathering of the After Sessions Book Club — a reflective, community-centered space for therapists, counselors, and grad students.

This month, we’ll be reading and discussing My Grandmother’s Hands by Resmaa Menakem, a powerful exploration of racialized trauma and healing through the body.

This is not your typical book club.
It’s a space to:

  • Reflect on your work and lived experiences
  • Connect with others in the mental health field
  • Engage in meaningful, grounded conversation

Whether you’ve finished the book or are still reading, you’re welcome to join.
