Description
Power and privilege are inherent in every relationship, including the therapeutic relationship. Experiencing racism, ableism, ageism, homophobia/heterosexism, and social exclusion and other forms of oppression has a detrimental impact on the mental health of individuals and communities. These parameters of social exclusion are always present in the therapy room in implicit and explicit ways. The therapeutic alliance between therapist and client has been demonstrated to be a key element for therapeutic effectiveness (Wampold, 2015). Differences in culture, social identity, and power affect how a client and clinician experience the therapeutic relationship, as well as clinical outcomes. In this session, you will discover strategies, practices, and clinical interventions that minimize power imbalances and promote equity and empowerment for all clients.
