Description
Places of higher learning, of all places, should be places where all students, faculty, and staff are safe from bigotry and exclusion. Sadly, this hasn’t been the case for Jewish members of university communities. As the year gears up for those Jewish therapists working in college counseling centers, teaching at the grad and undergrad level, and otherwise engaged with universities in any capacity, we want to be sure there’s a space to decompress, find support and empathy, and get that necessary reminder to your nervous system that you are not alone. This group does that. Whether you are faculty or staff, clinical or academic, or even a grad student serving your university community, you are welcome to join us. This biweekly (every-other-week) drop-in group begins September 4 and meets on Wednesdays at 10am Pacific / 1pm Eastern. It’s a 75-minute group with 15 minutes to schmooze afterward. This is an affinity space for Jewish participants only. Hosted and facilitated by Halina Brooke, founder/director of the Jewish Therapist Collective and licensed psychotherapist.
