Office Hours with Dr. Jenn
Join the global movement that is radically reimagining the old mental health paradigm.
In these monthly 2-hour group sessions, we will embark on a journey that explores how to practically work with the Political, the Personal, the Psychological and the needs of the People.
We're not just considering therapists* as laborers or instruments but as whole individuals with rich experiences.
Who is this for?
Professional Care Workers, such as:
- Therapists
- Social workers
- Psychologists
- Psychiatrists
- Educators
- Peer support advocates
- Coaches
- Spiritual and intuitive guides
- Bodyworkers
- And those that hold space and tend to emotions
“Dr. Jenn shared so much knowledge in session and so many resources that I'm looking forward to learning from.”
What are the Office Hours with Dr. Jenn?
A Decolonial Humanizing Intersectional Space for Care Workers from All Fields to:
- Learn to implement the Decolonizing Therapy™ Method: the ancestral, political, psychological and collective framework
- Unlearn and Learn in community
- Ask the burning questions you have as a care worker
- Join us in giving a middle finger to colonial time and slowing down with our ancestral land and labour acknowledgement
- Learn to discern between intuition and anxiety
- Receive guidance, feedback, and practical application with support
- Learn to weave intergenerational, rage, grief and lineage work
- Practical applications that are realistic and paradigm-shifting
The focal points of these transformative "office hours:"
Anti-Pathology Space:
We'll create a safe environment that challenges traditional pathologizing approaches.
Pro-Humanizing Helper Space:
Therapists are more than just helpers; they are whole individuals with unique experiences and stories.
Forming a Relationship with Rage:
Explore the wisdom and power in acknowledging and embracing your sacred rage.
Pro-Queer, Pro-Black:
Our discussions will embrace diversity and inclusivity,
honoring the experiences of the queer and Black communities.
Making Space for Messiness:
Life is messy, and we'll embrace the complexity and beauty of it all.
Your Questions, Dr. Jenn's Insights
During these sessions, you'll have the chance to submit your questions to Dr. Jenn. While we may not be able to address every question, you'll gain invaluable insights from the questions and answers of your fellow participants.
A politicized group consultation can support you with:
Having a place to come in and ask the “unaskable” questions and talk about the things that keep you up at night in your work.
How to navigate putting your therapeutic education to use when not wanting to be confined to licensure.
How to work with people who have done a lot of personal development, and have a good intellectualized grasp on concepts but they are not embodying the change/ healing.
Managing power dynamics with colleagues, supervisors, and institutions.
Discovering more language that is in alignment with your values.
How to integrate ancestral knowledge & invite communityhealers into your work.
How to live your boundaries whether with clients, colleagues, supervisors.
How to talk to coworkers you really like about uncomfortable things.
How to stay buoyant and inspired.
How to incrementally and consistently engage in intellectual, emotional and somatic practices that help to unhook you from white supremacy.
Investigate the energetics of white supremacy still affecting you and your practice.
How to navigate history, lineage and identity and how that shapes and influences the struggles people come in with and how you meet them.
Disclaimer: The "Office Hours" are not therapy, and they are not supervision.

Breaking Down Barriers to Access:Office Hours with Dr. Jenn
Understanding Gatekeeping: In the world of psychology and social work, access to high-quality consultation and support is often restricted. These spaces are typically gatekept—meaning that only those who are part of exclusive programs, expensive supervision groups, or academic institutions can benefit from them. Gatekeeping creates significant barriers, making it difficult for many to access the support they need.
Dr. Jenn's Inclusive Approach: Office Hours with Dr. Jenn is a groundbreaking initiative designed to swing open the doors of these exclusive spaces. Dr. Jenn is committed to ensuring that everyone has access to critical consultation and care. This initiative dismantles the traditional barriers, offering a welcoming and inclusive environment for all.
Exceptional Value Typical group consultation sessions in psychology and social work can be prohibitively expensive. In addition, many of these sessions lack a decolonial, anti-oppressive framework, often adhering to outdated Eurocentric approaches. In contrast, "Office Hours with Dr. Jenn" provides these valuable consultations at a significantly more economical rate, ensuring that everyone can benefit from expert guidance without the high costs.
By participating in"Office Hours with Dr. Jenn", you gain access to professional consultation that is not only affordable but also grounded in modern, inclusive practices. This is not just a bargain; it’s an essential resource that democratizes access to high-quality care.
