DESCRIPTION:"Race is a little bit like gravity," says john a. powell, "experienced by 
 all, understood by the few." The Psychotherapy Institute presents renowned 
 social justice advocate john a. powell at our Fall Symposium. Race is 
 relational, Dr. powell reminds us. It's as much about whiteness as about 
 color, and it largely plays out in our unconscious minds. Professor powell 
 will share his ideas on race, identity, and 'othering and belonging' as a 
 framework for exploring core concepts such as implicit bias, racial 
 anxiety, and stereotype threat. Drs. Regina Shields and Diane Swirsky will 
 join us for a dialogue adding clinical and theoretical perspectives on race 
 and 'othering.' CE units available.\n\nProfessor john a. powell is Director 
 of the Haas Institute for a Fair and Inclusive Society (Haas Institute) and 
 Robert D. Haas Chancellor's Chair in Equity and Inclusion at UC, Berkeley. 
 He led the development of an "opportunity-based" model that connects 
 affordable housing to racialized spaces in education, health, health care, 
 and employment. He is the author of Racing to Justice: Transforming our 
 Concepts of Self and Other to Build an Inclusive Society.\n\nRegina 
 Shields, PhD, MFT, has a private practice in Oakland where she treats 
 children, adolescents and adults. She has taught and/or supervised at TPI, 
 Access Institute, Ann Martin Children's Center, and the Wright Institute. 
 Dr. Shields was one of the co-founders of the Bay Area Black Mental Health 
 Professionals Network.\n\nDiane Swirsky, PhD, provides psychotherapy and 
 consultation in Oakland. She is on faculty at TPI and is a past president 
 of NCSPP. She has taught widely in the bay area, particularly in the field 
 of trauma, and is a participant in the New Directions Writing Program at 
 the Washington Center for Psychoanalysis.\n\nFor over 40 years, The 
 Psychotherapy Institute has provided affordable psychotherapy to Bay Area 
 residents as well as continuing education and advanced training to 
 psychotherapists.\n\n$110-190 plus discounts for registration before Sept
