Welcome to The Full-Bodied Book Club!
More than a reading group, this is a supervision space rooted in reflection, liberation, and community care. Created for pre-licensed therapists who want to think critically about their work and their place in the world, we center self-of-the-therapist exploration through texts that challenge the status quo and reimagine your therapy practice.
This Month’s Read
In September, we’ll explore Decolonizing Therapy: Oppression, Historical Trauma, and Politicizing Your Practice — a bold, heart-centered invitation to remember what therapy could be outside of colonized systems.
Dr. Jennifer Mullan weaves together ancestral wisdom, collective grief, personal narrative, and political analysis to help us unearth the roots of our work and reconnect with our deeper callings as healers. Her book isn’t a manual, but a mirror, a reckoning, and a prayer. Together, we’ll reflect on what this means for each of us as healers-in-community.
What to Expect
This 4-week group supervision series is a space for deep reflection and self-of-the-therapist exploration. Each 2-hour session will include:
Guided reflection questions,
Space for open dialogue, discussion, and community support, and
Collective inquiry around what it means to do liberatory work in colonized systems.
Rather than focusing on client consultation or case review, this space prioritizes you—your experiences, your ancestry, your identities, and your evolving sense of what healing means in your life and the work you do.
