WHAT I DO      - WRITING-      POETRY        -      WORKSHOPS    -     RESOURCES

I am a specialist in Anti racist Psychotherapy: I am proud of my success in presenting workshops on the Challenge of Racism in counselling and psychotherapy. These workshops are based on the principles of anti-racist practice. They facilitate professionals and students in the caring professions to develop expertise when engaging with the traumatic impact of racism.

I have had thirty-nine years’ experience as a Transcultural Psychotherapist, Supervisor, Lecturer, Writer and Reiki Master and as a published writer & poet.
I am the author of ‘Black Issues in the Therapeutic Process’ (2009) and ‘The Challenge of Racism in Therapeutic Practice’ (2016). I also co-authored an autobiography’ ‘In Search of Mr Mckenzie’ (1991)  I am currently producing a book that culminates the research and training work, presenting 'a black Empathic Approach'.
 
The legacy of these workshops is supported by facilitators trained by me in developing consciousness, dialogue and action culminating in a ‘black Empathic Approach’ to mental well-being, therapeutic practice, clinical supervision and training.
