V excited to work with @aclientfirst on this. Queer autistic clients can face lots of specific difficulties in therapy & many of us have stories of harmful therapy experiences. This is also a population who are v likely to seek/be recommended therapy. Looking fwd to this workshop

Can't believe this is already a year ago today. I still stand strongly by everything I said, and I still have big feelings about all of it

[Sonny Hallett @scrappapertiger]

I highly recommend Sonny. They will be a brilliant supervisor. If you are looking for supervision, especially if you are ND, look no further:

The first letter in full, from the Internet Archive - Gertrude I hope you got to read so much more weird fiction in your life and, just maybe, you found out if tigers made good pets

This is really important. The distancing is a big part of the problem. It also serves to further isolate both practitioners and their clients, compounding the harm.

[Erin Stevens same handle elsewhere @aclientfirst]

Therapists like to say "that isn't therapy" as a means to other harmful therapy. We love to disown it. "bad apples" "lone wolves" "not therapy" "shocking" all serve to distance us from the fact that harmful therapy is common and we are part of the systems that lead to it.

[Sonny Hallett @scrappapertiger]

Oh no, a huge loss

[Sonny Hallett @scrappapertiger]

Excited for this

[Erin Stevens same handle elsewhere @aclientfirst]

I'm really excited to give my keynote on Power in Therapy at Rainbow Therapy in Edinburgh next month. The profession keeps giving me material.

If I read the phrase "affirming towards medical transition" one more time in my fucking life I will scream. AFFIRMING THERAPY AFFIRMS WHEREVER A CLIENT IS AT. IT DOES NOT AFFIRM THEM *TOWARDS* ANYTHING.
