Pride is Protest! We marched and danced in the rain as a tribe of passionate practitioners who want to see Ireland ban conversion therapy now! Since 2011 we have created a safe space for 600 clients weekly many from our LGBTQ community. It’s a privilege & my heart is full! ❤️🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

This thread on @DilW presentation at the @IACP_ie conference on exploring identity and intersectionality 👇🏼 #iacpconference2020
So many of us are asked 'where are you really from?' And the underlying messages of not belonging here. This is a microaggression and intrusive z @DilW #othering #iacpconference2020

This thread on @DilW presentation at the @IACP_ie conference today 👇🏼 She absolutely named it - privilege in identity and intersectionality - and the need for better training in it and how we can create inclusive practice and therapeutic spaces 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 #iacpconference2020

Over the moon to hear @Myira_Khan speaking at @IACP_ie annual conference on power, privilege & oppression in society & asking where does our profession & accreditation bodies sit in relation to this - are we taking an observer role or taking a stand? #iacpconference2020

Listening to @Myira_Khan “our profession cannot sit in a vacuum when it comes to the social justice issues of our time” Does the profession make “being white, middle-class & middle-aged as being normative”. YES!!! Thank you 🙏🏽 @IACP_ie #iacpconference2020
