How the course is structured

Staying connected in unlearning.

Justice-oriented therapy is not just knowledge or learning, it's about an embodiment of practice, creativity, and building community in the work. We've structured the course specifically with that in mind: 

  • Access to a comprehensive, one-of-a-kind, 17-module course to guide your unlearning in translating theory into practice
  • Hands-on skills practice and facilitated coworking to support practical skill development
  • Specially curated integration prompts for each module to help deepen your unlearning
  • Six-month access to monthly community debriefs and co-learning spaces where you get to access generative learning that's only available through collaboration

We are uninvited settlers occupying the stolen, unceded, ancestral territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh), and S’ólh Téméxw (Stó:lō) peoples. 


Our relationship with these lands dictates our commitment to understanding the ongoing impacts of colonization and decolonizing our practices in and out of the counselling room. 

Justice Foundations

Professional Skills Training

Comprehensive anti-oppressive therapeutic skills training
for justice-oriented therapists to better serve SDQTBIPOC+ community members.

We all know we need to change the way we’re trained. Our clinical programs are largely built on unquestioned colonial ideology, appropriated ways of healing, and the theories determined by the same forces of systemic oppression we’re trying to dismantle.


So how do we move towards practicing in alignment with our collective ethics? What do we need to unlearn in order to address the nuances of perpetuating oppressive practices in our work? How do we continually adapt and realign with the folx we are dedicated to support?


We learn outside of academia and learn from our community leaders instead.
