My Pro-Choice Perspective
What being a Pro-Choice Therapist means to me:
I unconditionally support my clients' right to reproductive freedom, from abortion care to birth control to making choices about parenting. I also advocate for protection of these rights on a systemic level and have volunteered with abortion funds providing direct services to folks seeking abortions.
Why I think bodily autonomy and reproductive freedom are important:
Reproductive freedom and body autonomy are foundational to the wellbeing of individuals, relationships, and communities. These principles are inseparable from an authentically supportive therapeutic relationship and higher level advocacy for mental healthcare and social justice. I also recognize that therapy has been an institution that has participated in taking body autonomy away from individuals, especially those who already experience systemic violence, and work with clients in our relationships to repair harm that therapy has done and work toward anti-carceral care.
