Cultural Competence Workshops via Zoom
Delivered by Baffour Ababio, Caroline Adewole, Charles Brown or Kemi Omijeh.
These workshops draw on clinical examples and work as well as the intercultural experience to put forward the processes involved in working at the juncture of the client’s inner and outer experiences. The evocation of shame and avoidance in the dyadic or group encounter of intersecting differences and sameness will also be explored. “Any clinical encounter that does not take into account the client’s whole life experience and does not consider their race, culture, gender or social values, can only fragment that person.” (Jafar Kareem, co-founder of Nafsiyat Intercultural Therapy Centre). In the workshop Jafar’s quote will be applied to societal/individual assumptions with regards to racism and sexism. There will be an opportunity for participants to work on some of their own material from their practice.
Through case material and film attendees will dynamically work through concepts/themes and questions such as:
- > Institutional racism/domination/oppression. Participants will explore how clients from minority communities deploy strategies to cope with their varying levels of internal and external experiences of persecution.
- >This workshop aims to enhance participants’ self-awareness, empathic knowledge and understanding of other cultures and conceptualisation of identity formation. Attendees in exploring their own processes, whether from dominant or minority groups will be more attuned to the impact of their therapeutic engagements with their clients.
- > It will touch on the extent to which therapy/mental health organisations facilitate or inhibit the capacity of its practitioners to critically engage in conversations around cultural competency.
- >The workshop will allow for the exploration of how cultural competency can be applied in supervision. It will therefore look at the experience of supervision from both angles; as a supervisee and as a supervisor. The group work will discuss and reflect on what a culturally competent supervision might look like. We know that any therapeutic work to be of benefit to both practitioner and client requires a good enough thinking space, provided through supervision to facilitate the process.
- >Cultural competent work operates within the context of the external realities of the historic as well the present. Participants will look at the penetration of political shifts in the UK such as Brexit into the clinical engagements of practitioners. This conversation can be framed as the frontiers of culturally competent thinking.
Planned dates are:
- – July 23rd Saturday, 10.00 to 16.00 BST
- – Sept 10th Saturday,10.00 to 16.00 BST
- – Nov 19th Saturday, 10.00 to 16.00 GMT

Feedback from past participants who attended our workshops:
“Very warm and welcoming facilitator provided a safe boundaried space to speak”
“Thank you for an interesting course today. There was a lot of valuable discussion and ideas were laid out clearly. For someone who benefits from being seen as white I think it is always good to return to these issues and ideas, over and over again. Thank you for the opportunity to do so again today“
“Thank you so much, it was a very interesting and reflective workshop which I will take away, process and utilise in therapy sessions with students :)”
“Very skilled inclusive trainer and very good organisation”
“I really liked the style of facilitator – it was both safe and challenging”
“This was an excellent starting point for a very important area of consideration, not just in our work but in our wider lives”

We want to give special thanks to The Charity of Sir Richard Whittington for providing us with three years’ worth of funding for our Migrant Women’s Group, run by psychotherapist Sega Habtom.
Research shows that asylum seekers are five times more likely to have mental health needs than the general population, and more than 61% will experience severe mental distress. This donation means we can continue to support female Amharic, Arabic and Tigrinya-speaking refugees living in London by giving them a space to speak in their native tongue and talk about the daily pressures of their lives.

Watch the webinar on Racism, stigma and fear held on occasion of Black History Month
In honour of Black History Month, Keeping Well NCL and Nafsiyat presented a webinar on Oct 25th on Racism, stigma and fear and the barriers in accessing mental health.
This interactive webinar discusses the existence of multicultural Britain over the centuries and how it lay hidden and barely visible before our modern age, due to injustices and racism towards communities deemed ‘foreign’ and / or ‘other.’ The webinar was presented by Baffour Ababio, intercultural psychotherapist at Nafsiyat Intercultural Therapy Centre. He details the impact these injustices have had on the mental health care of Britain’s black and ethnic minority communities, including the assumption that non-Europeans would not benefit from talking therapy. The webinar includes reflections on how progress is being compromised by the persistence of racism, and a discussion on how these challenges might be overcome.
Baffour shares how Nafsiyat has challenged these assumptions and how they’ve worked through the barriers of fear and stigma to incorporate a wealth of cultural affirming practices into their unique model to inspire therapy provision and engagement across cultural and ‘racial’ borders.
