When political winds shift and systemic threats resurface, LGBTQ+ communities feel the impact first and deepest. In today’s political and social landscape, LGBTQ+ communities are facing renewed uncertainty, fear, and systemic adversity.
As therapists, how do we hold space for both the real dangers they face and their inherent resilience? How do we help them thrive, not just survive?
Join us for an open, practical Clinical Conversation with Roshni Chabra, LMFT, an intersectional feminist therapist, educator, and fierce advocate for healing. This is not a dry webinar or check-the-box training. It’s a safe, truthful space to explore how clinicians can stand with LGBTQ+ and immigrant clients, fostering resilience, creative expression, and true community connection in difficult times.
What We'll Explore:
- How today’s political climate impacts LGBTQ+ clients and their sense of safety
- The role of community, resistance, and joy in trauma recovery
- Therapist presence: how to offer support and “stay in the fight” without burnout
- Practical strategies for helping clients access sources of meaning, creativity, and connection, even in the face of systemic adversity
- The importance of activism, advocacy, and celebrating small victories
- Cultivating hope -how therapists can nurture resilience while honoring real pain
