  White Therapists Fighting Racism (WTFR)
  

  Third Sunday of Every Month

  Next Meeting:
  Sunday, December 21, 2025
  3:00pm-5:00pm (PT)

  Online Via Zoom

  

  The goal of White Therapists Fighting Racism (WTFR) is for white-identified therapists to become effective allies in support of decolonization and racial justice in our clinical practice, therapy association, and community. Recognizing that racism is maintained when whiteness is invisible to white people, WTFR provides a forum for white-identified therapists to explore what it means to be white. While this process includes learning about structural racism and deconstructing the false narrative about race, a primary focus in the group is on doing inner work.

  How Do I Join? To join this group, please click here to complete our online submission form. Once submitted, a group facilitator will reach out to you for next steps.

  Open to LA-CAMFT Members and Non-Members.

  For more information or if you have additional questions, please send all inquiries to the facilitators WTFR@lacamft.org.

  Middle Eastern North African (MENA) Therapists Community Group
  

  First Monday of Every Month

  Next Meeting:
  Monday, January 5, 2026
  9:00am-10:00am

  Online Via Zoom

  

  The MENA Therapists Community Group is a safe place across the Middle Eastern and North African therapist diaspora to build community and a sense of belonging. We hold an inclusive space to process the impact of cultural biases experienced by people of MENA descent and the effect it may have on our work as mental health professionals. Within the process, we will strive to create healing, support, and empowerment. We will collaboratively exchange ideas, experiences and resources while acknowledging cultural differences and shared similarities. As the poet Khalil Gibran states — “The reality of the other person lies not in what he reveals to you, but what he cannot reveal to you.” — our community will create a place to be seen, heard, and understood.

  Special Note: MENA Therapists Community Group meetings are intended as a place for MENA-identifying therapists to have a safe place amongst others in the same ethnic and cultural community to share and process their personal and professional experiences. Therapists from similar cultural backgrounds (e.g., South Asian, mixed identities that include MENA, etc.) are also welcome. If you are not MENA-identifying or from a similar cultural background and instead wish to join these meetings for the purpose of learning about the MENA population, we offer consultations separately. You are more than welcome to schedule a one-on-one consultation by emailing us.

  Open to LA-CAMFT Members and Non-Members.

  For more information, contact the facilitators at mena@lacamft.org.

  Beyond the Rainbow – Supporting Clinicians with LGBTQI+ Cultural Competence and Creating Resilience in LGBTQI+ Communities

  with Davina Kotulski, Ph.D.

  This workshop familiarizes clinicians with the LGBTQI+ lexicon and explores the role resilience plays in supporting LGBTQI+ clients facing political scapegoating and social backlash. It will define resilience while exploring the mutable and non-mutable factors that strengthen it. Clinicians will examine the unique vulnerabilities LGBTQI+ individuals face, address the impact of shame and fear on coping, and identify ways to foster client strength and community connection. Participants will learn how to support clients navigating internalized oppression and social stigma.

  Educational Goals/Learning Objectives:

  Demonstrate cultural competence when working with LGBTQI+ clients and understand what factors and strategies contribute to resiliency in both the LGBTQI+-identified individual and LGBTQI+ communities.

  By the end of this presentation, attendees will be able to:

  1. Define resilience and describe strategies LGBTQI+ people can practice to create resiliency.
  2. Understand how fear, shame, and scapegoating impact a person’s resilience.
  3. Identify factors that contribute to resiliency in both the individual and LGBTQI+ community.

  Presenter:

  Davina Kotulski, Ph.D. (she/her; they/them) is a licensed clinical psychologist and an award-winning self-help author. Dr. Kotulski is a widely sought-out speaker on LGBTQI+ topics and an internationally recognized LGBTQI+ rights leader. She received the Saints Alive award from the Metropolitan Community Church for her national leadership in the LGBTQ marriage equality movement and for her seminal book Why You Should Give a Damn About Gay Marriage (2004). She has a private therapy practice and is licensed in CA, OR, and WA. Her website is drdavinakotulski.com.

  First Monday of Every Month

  Next Meeting:

  9:00am-10:00am

  Online Via Zoom

  

  The MENA Therapists Community Group is a safe place across the Middle Eastern and North African therapist diaspora to build community and a sense of belonging. We hold an inclusive space to process the impact of cultural biases experienced by people of MENA descent and the effect it may have on our work as mental health professionals. Within the process, we will strive to create healing, support, and empowerment. We will collaboratively exchange ideas, experiences and resources while acknowledging cultural differences and shared similarities. As the poet Khalil Gibran states — “The reality of the other person lies not in what he reveals to you, but what he cannot reveal to you.” — our community will create a place to be seen, heard, and understood.

  Special Note: MENA Therapists Community Group meetings are intended as a place for MENA-identifying therapists to have a safe place amongst others in the same ethnic and cultural community to share and process their personal and professional experiences. Therapists from similar cultural backgrounds (e.g., South Asian, mixed identities that include MENA, etc.) are also welcome. If you are not MENA-identifying or from a similar cultural background and instead wish to join these meetings for the purpose of learning about the MENA population, we offer consultations separately. You are more than welcome to schedule a one-on-one consultation by emailing us.

  Open to LA-CAMFT Members and Non-Members.

  For more information, contact the facilitators at mena@lacamft.org.
