Summary

Have you ever attended a book club meeting and felt like there was more left unsaid? Do you wish you had the space to dive into the intricate details of the book, exploring how it made you feel, unearthing memories, and processing the profound impact it had on you?

 

This is not your average book group!

 

We are excited to welcome you to this One Of It's Kind Bibliotherapy Book Series in Washington, DC facilitated by Licensed Professional Counselors Unique Jordan and Desiree Roberts!

 

As Black women, we are deeply committed to creating a safe and empowering space for us to explore not only our inner selves but also to challenge generational mindsets that may have shaped our perceptions of love. It's our belief that we, as Black women, deserve the utmost care and consideration, and sometimes, we haven't had the vocabulary or the space to fully identify and communicate our needs.

 

We hope this book journey provides you with the thoughts, words, and ideas that will help shift the narratives in your lives, empowering you to embrace love in all its forms. Together, we'll embark on a transformative exploration of love and self-discovery.

 

What is Bibliotherapy?

Bibliotherapy is a therapeutic approach that harnesses the power of literature and reading to promote emotional and psychological well-being. It involves the intentional use of books, poetry, and other written materials as tools for healing and personal growth. Through the process of reading and reflecting on selected texts, individuals can explore and understand their own thoughts, emotions, and experiences.

 

Selected Text: all about love: NEW VISIONS by bell hooks

 

Book Group Discussions

Our discussions are not just surface-level chit-chat. We dive into meaningful conversations that allow you to share, learn, and connect with others on a profound level. You will learn practical skills derived from psychotherapy modalities and discover how to integrate them into your daily life. You'll walk away from each group with actionable tools that can facilitate transformative changes in your personal journey.
