What are you? Therapy for Mixed Race Clients with Dr Yvon Guest
Q: Can you describe how you approach the topic of race and identity in your work with clients who feel they don't belong?
We acknowledge loss and grief, create space for authentic expression, and guide clients toward a viable identity by validating their experiences in real-world contexts.
What are you? Therapy for Mixed Race Clients with Dr Yvon Guest
Q: What should therapists know first when working with mixed-race clients?
Enter with cultural humility, not cultural competence; acknowledge you don't know everything, listen to the client's story, and be prepared to repair ruptures in the relationship.
What are you? Therapy for Mixed Race Clients with Dr Yvon Guest
Q: What kinds of identity work do you see mixed-race clients bringing into therapy, and how do you help them navigate it?
Clients often grapple with belonging and the pressure to choose a side; I help by validating multiple identities, avoiding assumptions, and supporting a nuanced self-definition that respects their lived experience.
Feel the fear (but ask for help) with Gemma Anderson
Q: What advice would you give therapists just starting out?
Her key guidance is to ask for help and to leverage support networks rather than trying to prove everything alone.
