As comes to a close, we recognize and celebrate the contributions of bisexual people in social work and beyond. Bisexual people have always been part of our workforce and our movements. Yet they continue to face erasure, stigma, and exclusion in both cis-heteronormative and 2SLGBTQIA+ spaces. must ensure our practice reflects inclusion, affirmation, and the full dignity of bi+ clients, colleagues, and communities.

One week out! I’m looking forward to presenting “Faith, Identity, and Healing: Navigating Church Hurt in Black LGBTQIA+ Communities” at ClinicianFestPalooza. Come check me out as well as other fantastic presenters.

I am excited to present on this topic as it is a close to me. If you're wanting to learn how to help your Black LGBTQIA+ clients navigate church hurt consider joining me bright and early on Friday, September 26th. I hope to see you all join!

Faith can be a source of strength. It can also be a source of pain, especially for Black LGBTQIA+ communities navigating church hurt.

Joyce Miles Jacquote has dedicated her work to helping people find healing at the intersection of faith, identity, and belonging.

This powerful session will shine a light on the complexities of spirituality and identity, and offer clinicians strategies to support clients who are carrying both deep faith and deep wounds.

Did you know? A person’s recovery journey is often deeply connected to the healing process of their entire family or relationship.

That’s why LMFTs are uniquely trained to support individuals within the context of the systems they live in—whether that’s a couple, a family, or a broader support network.

LMFTs don't just focus on one person’s story—they help facilitate recovery in a way that brings collective healing to everyone involved.

It's National 💜
We dedicate this month to celebrate the power of recovery from substance use disorders and mental health conditions.

for EVERYONE! samhsa.gov/recovery-month
