Advocacy

Geode

"Social injustice is traumatizing. This needs to be named in trauma work. When this doesn’t happen, individuals can be blamed for behavior that is a natural response to an overwhelming or untenable situation." -Hala Khouri

The bulk of my practice focuses on individual clients: their stories, their trauma, their healing. I also put time aside to work on issues of community trauma, which affects groups of people struggling against larger patterns of structural inequality. It is my sincere belief that both types of healing work are necessary in order to effect true and lasting change for any and all of us.

The following are two advocacy projects that have deep meaning for me:


Establish a Human Rights Commission in Your Town: A Guide

Criminalizing Female Genital Mutilation in Connecticut




"Jo is a woman who is deeply passionate about social justice both domestically and internationally - most specifically when it comes to the rights of women and girls. She is not one to solely complain about a problem, but one who does something about it." - Belinda L.
