Anti-Racist.

From the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapists Code of Ethics:

Marriage and family therapists are defined by an enduring dedication to professional and ethical excellence, as well as the commitment to service, advocacy, and public participation. The areas of service, advocacy, and public participation are recognized as responsibilities to the profession equal in importance to all other aspects. Marriage and family therapists embody these aspirations by participating in activities that contribute to a better community and society, including devoting a portion of their professional activity to services for which there is little or no financial return. Additionally, marriage and family therapists are concerned with developing laws and regulations pertaining to marriage and family therapy that serve the public interest, and with altering such laws and regulations that are not in the public interest. 

Our minds, our homes, our families cannot be healthy where racism lives. The work of GR Family Therapy is dedicated to healing and repairing the harm of racism. 

If you are a person who is looking for help in becoming anti-racist or in raising anti-racist kids. If you are searching for a place you can ask questions and struggle with the emotions this work brings up, you are welcome to do this work at GR Family Therapy.
