Hardy, PhD, author of the new book Racial Trauma: Clinical Strategies & Techniques for Healing Invisible Wounds, alongside Networker’s director Zach Taylor to learn racially-sensitive, trauma-informed interventions and strategies that centralize race and racial oppression in every facet of the therapeutic process and relationship.
