Counselling Psychologist & Systemic & Family Practitioner Paula St Ange and Trainee Clinical Psychologist Cassia Keziah Maximen join me in this episode to discuss Emotional Emancipation Circles. Aka as EECs are evidence-informed, psychologically sound, culturally grounded, and community-defined self-help support groups designed to help heal, and end, the trauma caused by the root cause of anti-Black racism. These two women have been group participants and are now trained as EEC group facilitators.  They share how and why these groups were started, the concept is an import from the US which has been adapted to the UK context.  In the early evaluations, EEC participants reported notable improvements in their mental health. Facilitators have been trained in nearly 50 states in the US, Cuba, South Africa and of course the UK.
