This course really is as amazing as it sounds. Having worked in Indigenous communities for years, this course is the training I wish I had years ago. The way traditional knowledge and cultural values are woven together with evidence-based CBT practices makes the learning both powerful and deeply respectful. It felt relevant, grounded, and genuinely supportive of the communities it’s designed to serve. I came away with not only practical skills, but a deeper understanding of how to adapt my approach in a way that feels culturally safe and responsive. Plus, it came with so many beautiful culturally adapted downloadable resources that I use daily now. This training has had a lasting impact on how I work and I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to practice CBT in a more inclusive and culturally informed way.

Mikwendaagwad shifted the way I think about therapy about and my role as a clinician. It didn’t just “add” cultural considerations onto a traditional CBT framework—it reworked the foundation in a way that felt more honest, relational and relevant for working in Indigenous communities. The course offered a framework that still held onto the strengths of CBT while expanding it to include ways of knowing, being and healing that aren’t always captured in Western models.
