Fostering authentic connection between clients living under systemic oppression
BIPOC and LGBTQI relationships have unique needs because minority stress, racialised trauma, and transphobia, homophobia and biphobia can compromise one’s ability to feel safe enough to connect to the world and others. Yet, all too often, marginalised couples are let down by conventional therapeutic models which were designed for white, cisgendered, heterosexual clients.
This book puts forth a therapeutic approach specifically designed for working with the impact of systemic oppression in couple’s therapy. It emphasises a courageous and vulnerable therapeutic stance rooted in an understanding of the lived experiences of marginalised couples, and a structured yet flexible path to healing. The author invites therapists to become active agents of change, making this not only a practical guide but also a call to action for fostering a more just and equitable world in which intimacy flourishes for all. With this innovative and inspiring approach, readers can help their clients journey towards liberation and authentic connection.
