Dr Aileen Alleyne

UKCP Reg. Psychotherapist, Clinical Supervisor, Org. Consultant



Akbar (1979), DeGruy Leary (2005) and Fletchman Smith (2000) all suggest that centuries of the painful history of slavery, followed by systemic racism and oppression, have resulted in multigenerational adaptive behaviours. Some of these have been positive and reflective of resilience, but others detrimental and destructive. This talk will highlight some of these patterns and behaviours, which you might meet in the consulting room. Using Alleyne's, (1992) "The Cycle of Events", together with clinical case material recorded on video, the speaker will explore ways of working with such phenomena to deepen your understanding of race dynamics in black/white relationships.
