Thursday, February 27, 2025, 6-8PM (Zoom)

How can we center justice-based and relational approaches when addressing addictions in therapy and beyond? This transformative workshop invites mental health professionals to rethink dominant narratives and embrace Disability Justice (DJ) principles in therapeutic practice.
What You’ll Learn:
-
Unpack the prevailing models in therapy and addictions, including the biopsychosocial model and public health policies.
-
Explore key Disability Justice principles and their transformative relevance in reframing addictions.
-
Gain practical tools to integrate these principles into your work through guided reflection and roleplay.
