A Black Empathic Approach to Psychotherapy: Growing from Rage to Compassion

This book presents the concept of a black Empathic Approach, an experiential model used as a means of developing powerful feelings associated with racism, such as fear, guilt, and rage, into a useful THERAPEUTIC tool for healing the intersectional impact of anti-black racism and associated oppressions.

Dr. Isha Mckenzie-Mavinga, contributed papers and poetry to several anthologies and initiated therapeutic services at the African Caribbean Mental Health Association, and Women’s Trust. She presents talks and trains facilitators to present her concept of a Black Empathic Approach.
