I work as a therapist at Abused Deaf Women's Advocacy Services (ADWAS). I collaborate with a team of advocates, child advocates, an on-site advocate, and a property manager to support our Deaf survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault. ADWAS' core values involve social justice and we aim to incorporate that in all of the services we provide: it varies from unpacking our privileges to educating the community about privilege and oppression. I use the trauma-informed lens in my therapy which focuses on the person's trauma rather than diagnosing them. I love to talk social justice, how to make the mental health field more accessible and less dangerous for minorities, and how we all could support each other with a variety of backgrounds. See you at WSCADV!
