Anti-Oppressive Coaching:  What exactly is it?

I work to assist people in achieving their goals around creating and/or sustaining healthy and realistic introspection around your understanding of race, racism, and oppression.  I work with you to achieve your goals of gaining clarity around obstacles that support covert and overt instances of anti-Black racism and/or oppression.

I am not a licensed therapist or a fixer; instead I serve as a content expert and accountability partner to support you in building the emotional intelligence on this topic that you and those around you deserve.  While we will meet weekly for 60 minutes, I will also provide other opportunities for engagement and deeper reflection of your role in unraveling oppression.

I will challenge you to learn and face what form of racism exists within you and how that impacts your view of the world and people around you in the highest confidence. Our relationship will be one built on mutual respect, truth, patience, trust, and empathy. Coaching components include:

• Weekly confidential sessions that unpack the Anti-Oppressive Advocacy® Coaching Curriculum

• Journal writing and in-session thought work

• Examination of the Eight White Identities

• Interrogation of forms of White Supremacy

• Strategy for creating change within your sphere of influence
