Decolonizing Teaching in Systemic Therapy Programs: Dr. Felicia Holloway and Briana Roberts
Welcome to the "Learning and Teaching Systemic Therapy" Podcast, hosted by Dr. Shofia Georgiadou. In this episode, we explore the decolonization of marriage and family therapy education with Dr. Felicia Holloway, a passionate advocate for accessible and affirming mental health care for marginalized groups. With questions sourced by our Ph.D. student guest Briana Roberts, our conversation explores the importance of reducing hierarchy and gatekeeping in academia and therapy while promoting collaborative learning and teaching environments. We also discuss strategies for supporting students of color and creating empowering mentorship networks. Tune in for an inspiring discussion about what decolonizing systemic education for the next generation of MFTs looks like.
