I approach therapy with a simple question: 

"What do you want out of life, and what is holding you back from that?" 

This question, and your answers, is where we begin the journey. I look forward to hearing from you.

Anti-oppression

The Color of Compromise

By Jemar Tisby

The History of the American Church's Complicity in Racism

White Fragility

By Robin DiAngelo

The seminal book on understanding white privilege and white fragility. In my eyes a necessary read for all white people wanting to do anti-racist and anti-oppressive work.

You Are Your Best Thing: Vulnerability, Shame Resilience, and the Black Experience

By Tarana Burke and Brene Brown

This anthology is a space to recognize and process the trauma of white supremacy, a space to be vulnerable and affirm the fullness of Black life and Black possibility, a space that gives Black humanity breathing room.

Emergent Strategy: Shaping Change, Changing Worlds

By Adrienne Maree Brown

We often feel helpless in the face of so many things we want to change. This book gives you a place to land, to be connected in the work of social change. It gives you a blueprint from our ecosystem of how to effect change on a large scale through small actions. Some of the things this book is fighting for: "dignity, collective power, love, generative conflict, and community."

How We Show Up: Reclaiming Family, Friendship, and Community

By Mia Birdsong

Through research, interviews, and stories of lived experience, How We Show Up returns us to our inherent connectedness where we find strength, safety, and support in vulnerability and generosity, in asking for help, and in being accountable. Showing up—literally and figuratively—points us toward the promise of our collective vitality and leads us to the liberated wellbeing we all want. It seems counterintuitive that living the “good life”—the well-paying job, the nuclear family, the upward mobility—can make us feel isolated and unhappy. What separates us isn’t only the ever-present injustices built around race, class, gender, values, and beliefs, but also our denial of our interdependence and need for belonging. In response to the fear and discomfort we feel, we’ve built walls. How We Show Up teaches us how to build community instead.

Native: Identity, Belonging, and Rediscovering God

By Kaitlin B. Curtice

This book is incredible. A reflection on what it means to embrace Native ways of knowing oneself and God.

Braiding Sweetgrass

13th: From Slave to Criminal with One Amendment

Documentary on the 13th Amendment

This movie is such a clear overarching explanation of racism over time in our country, how it morphs but hasn't gone away. The link here is for the trailer. I think you can watch the movie on Netflix or IMBD.

Deconstructing White Privilege

By Robin DiAngelo

This video is the best explanation I have seen for understanding white privilege. Robin is clear, concise, unequivocal and also compassionate. A life-changing video, and a great primer to anti-racist and anti-oppression work.

The Antiracist Enneagram

By Jessica Dickson

Mix Antiracism and the wisdom of the Enneagram and you have Jessica Dickson's magic.

People-Pleasing

Post-Capitalist Philanthropy

By Alnoor Ladha & Lynn Murphy

Post Capitalist Philanthropy takes us on a journey from the history of wealth accumulation to the current logic of late-stage capitalism to the lived possibilities for other ways of knowing, sensing and being that can usher in life-centric models. These “ontological shifts”, as we call them, are at the heart of the text. Creating emerging realities is not simply about how we redistribute wealth or “fight power”, but rather, how we perceive and embody our actions in relationship to a dynamic, animate world.
