Our Practitioner Mentorship Process helps practitioners uncover their unique ways to engage and discover authentic, non-performative action. Each session will focus on building internal toolkits to foster external change. We do this by examining existing racial training (the messages/conditioning we have received and continue to receive regarding race in America), take a serious look at how this relates to health and healing, address how this training effects our interactions across difference, and focus on the retraining ourselves towards antiracism.
Our work together will uncover YOUR authentic, non-performative, anti-racist self. This transformative work is done in order to actively reduce harm and ensure more equitable healing spaces, health access, and therapies for the thriving of all people.
The Mentorship Program includes:
~Three months of mentorship and guidance
~Three 90 min Live Connections with Lo & Reya
~ Two mini sessions, one with Lo, one with Reya
~ Access to ongoing Field Guide community, events and classes.

Program Cost = $675 (3 monthly installments of $225)

From Lauren Kite, ReCenter Facilitator, on the importance of Anti-Racist Practitioners…
“To recognize and commit to the necessity of anti-racist values requires a deeper investigation into our own, often unconsciously held, racial/cultural biases. This is not only essential for reducing the harm so often incurred by minoritized communities, but also serves to position practitioners responsibly within their traditions – which often have non-European/American origins. Too often there is great disconnect between the intention to “help” or “be of service”, and the impact on those we aim to serve.”
