Decolonising Counselling and Psychotherapy: Depoliticised Pathways towards Intersectional Practice Book Launch with Dr Dwight Turner
About this Event

Decolonisation is a term, which has become a modern-day buzzword as we look to understand the influences of the systemic structures of oppression, which have moulded all of our identities., Yet in the worlds of counselling and psychotherapy, there has been a struggle to understand what this term means in regard to our profession. Decolonising Counselling and Psychotherapy considers the ways in which the systems of colonisation have taken over and are continually reconstituted within our profession.


As part of this 2-hour book launch event, we will explore some of the themes of the book as it challenges our profession by offering practical ways in which we might diversify our practices, proffering varying perspectives about how to create pathways for greater inclusion in training courses and examining the many opportunities to explore and expand the ways in which we undertake research. Most importantly, it will encourage the therapist to look at the internalised experiences of colonisation on themselves. The book shows that working creatively with techniques common to counselling and psychotherapy could lead the profession to not only broaden out what it knows and understands of human nature but, through a process of decolonisation, assist in meeting the needs of a wider range of clients.
