About this Event

BIPOC Therapist Social

Come join us at McCarren Parkhouse for a BIPOC Therapist Social!

This is an opportunity for BIPOC Therapists to breathe, share, and be in community with others who understand the unique weight we carry in this work. So often, we pour into others while holding the complexities of our identities, often in isolation. But healing work isn’t meant to happen alone.

Whether you're a seasoned therapist, just starting out, or somewhere in between, you are welcome here.

Guest Speaker

Elizabeth Cavic (they/she)

Elizabeth (they/she) is a doctoral student in clinical psychology at Teachers College, Columbia University who broadly focuses on promoting psychological wellness among LGBTQ+ young and young adults of color. Their program of research aims to: (1) further develop the minority stress literature regarding LGBTQ+ youth and young adults of color, (2) explore how this population leverages support to cope with identity-based stressors, and (3) develop multi-level interventions to promote psychosocial wellbeing among this population. Elizabeth completed their EdM and MA in Counseling at Teachers College, Columbia University, and their BS in Human Development at Cornell University.
