CLINICAL APPROACH
Feminist therapy looks at how gender, power, and social context shape your mental health, rather than treating your struggles as purely individual. Your therapist works collaboratively with you, naming the ways things like gender roles, relationship power dynamics, or systemic inequities may be contributing to what you're experiencing.
Feminist therapy examines how gender, power, and social context contribute to your mental health, working collaboratively with you rather than treating you as the sole source of the problem.
WHAT IT TREATS / WHO IT'S FOR
It's often used for issues tied to identity, relationships, self-worth, and the effects of gendered expectations or discrimination, and can support anyone who wants their social context taken seriously in therapy, not just their individual thought patterns. It's available virtually across Canada through Shift Collab.
