This course was deep\, valuable\, and because of its experiential grounding\, also personally transformative. Natalie’s course helped me to develop my attunement to difference\, and to move more deeply into my commitment to work through the unconscious biases that are part of what we inevitably internalize from the social context. This is important to me\, as a psychotherapist\, because these biases are blocks in my practice to connecting and collaborating with racialized clients. \n\n– Kristin Casady\, RP\, MA\, CTP Dipl (she/her)\nFaculty Member\, The Centre for Training in Psychotherapy\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhy Should I Learn to Have Conversations About Race?\n\n\n\n\nBecause you…..\n\nHave taken the courses or have lived experiences and you are still unsure what to say if the topic of race comes up with colleagues\, clients\, vendors\, friends and family\nWant to know how you impact others in conversations about race so you do not unintentionally hurt someone\nWant to know how to respond if someone makes a mistake with you\nWant to know what to do and say if you make a mistake\nWant to be able to show up as your full self so you can confidently and effectively communicate with others\nWant to understand why you feel so uncomfortable with this topic \nWant to feel like you CAN have conversations about race in an embodied\, present and courageous way\nWant to be a part of the change required for a racially equitable society\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Not everything that is faced can be changed\, but nothing can be changed until it is faced.”\n\n– James Baldwin\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhy Should I Take This Course?\n\n\n\n\n‘The Comfortable Race Conversation Process’ not only provided me with a greater understanding of the individual actions I can take\, it also gave me the courage to remain active & consistent in bringing forward systemic improvements to policies and practices in my workplace.\n\nKelly B. – Organizational Leader and Mother of 2\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYou want to have conversations about race because bridging the gap of diversity is important. You want to lean in and engage in conversations because they need to happen and your discomfort gets in the way. I want you to know that you are not alone. The emotional\, physical and psychological discomfort that emerges when talking about race gets in everyone’s way. \n  \nWe need our humanity at this moment.\nOur human emotions\, feelings\, physical and psychological responses are where we are more the same than different. Our unique experiences are vastly different\, but our humanity\, which is where we are the same\, is where contact is possible. \nWe need a common ground.\nHow will we collectively make a change for our children\, our communities\, our workplaces and our society\, if we are not able to talk to each other?   so that everyone\, who wants change\, can connect\, hear and understand each other. \nWe need a common language.\nThis program is about creating that common ground and language so we all can find a new way to meet each other. \nCreating the space and awareness for the emotional\, physical\, psychological and relational energy that is ALWAYS PRESENT between humans\, especially when speaking about the subject of race\, is a key element of this process. \nIf you want to be able to lean into conversations about race – then this course is for you. \nLearn how to have conversations about race by having conversations about race.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“When you know better\, you do better”.\n\n– Maya Angelou\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWho Will Teach Me?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHi!  I am Natalie Haynes and I have been a Training Consultant\, Workshop Facilitator and Psychotherapist for over 10 years.  I became a therapist because I was a client and I became a client because of my anxiety.  I love what I do.  I teach people how to be with their emotions in a new way\, so they can have more permission and compassion for themselves. \nMy relationship with my racial identity wasn’t always a good one. Having conversations about race was difficult at best\, until I understood what the emotional turmoil I avoided was about. When I changed my relationship to my racial identity and embodied the emotional responses I resisted\, everything shifted. I created this program because I want to change how people feel about talking about race so they can have the awareness about how they interact and engage in the places and spaces they live in. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nListen to Our Previous Livestream/Podcast Episode \n \n\n\nPowered by RedCircle \nIn this episode\, Natalie shares invaluable strategies for practicing positive mental health techniques at work. Discover methods to cope with stress\, burnout\, anxiety\, and other professional challenges\, with actionable tips to help you stay balanced and resilient. \nNatalie is a Registered Psychotherapist specializing in Emotional and Mental Wellness and DEIB Training\, certified by the Ontario Association of Mental Health Professionals (OAMHP) and serving as the President of the Board of the Gestalt Institute of Toronto. \nWe also delve into the stories we tell ourselves about professional situations. How do we interpret and internalize events like not receiving a callback or missing out on a sale? Natalie helps us understand the personal meanings we attach to these experiences and how to embody more empowering narratives. \nTune in for an insightful conversation on maintaining mental wellness and fostering a positive mindset in your professional life. \n  \n
