She has done a tremendous job in the community and at NTL Laboratory. Over the past 8 years, she has served multiple roles in the company.
In this episode, we'll be exploring questions that have been pre-sourced from Shazia and Sofia:
1) When you think about your journey, what comes to mind? Can you share your experience/ journey of moving to the U.S. and transitioning into teaching systemic therapy? What challenges did you encounter along the way?
2) When you think of culture, how did your cultural background influence your approach to teaching systemic therapy, and what strengths and growing edges did you experience?
3) What are resources you share with students and challenges you provide them with to advance their systemic training?
4) What changes or improvements would you like to see in systemic therapy, especially how it is taught and practiced in the U.S.?

🔆 Our 1st MFT Educators International Gathering
(January 15, 2025) involved participants from the UK, US, Canada, Italy, Greece and Slovakia, with each sharing their experiences and observations about our field.
👉 As a group, we explored ideas to advance our field, such as hosting sessions, writing reports or books, and raising awareness. We discussed the opportunity of collaborating at an upcoming international conference. Some of us are thinking about creating introductory workshops for other professionals to learn about systemic thinking. Others talked about discussing study abroad collaborations.
Shila Rashid (The Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust) and Sofia Georgiadou (University of Houston-Clear Lake/Northwestern University) are inviting you to a conversation with one another – across continents, across our different contexts – to consider these important questions and opportunities for collaborations to advance our incredible field.
This gathering is for CFT/MFT trainers, instructors and professors of all ranks (clinical supervisors, lecturers, senior lecturers, adjuncts, assistant/associate/full professors, chairs) across all geographical locations.
