The Feminist Therapy Network operates from the following principles:

​

• Feminist understandings are not solely theoretical but are lived. 

• Commitment to an intersectional feminist praxis that engages with how our differences shape our experiences, in order to foster connection and solidarity work.

• Commitment to a feminism that is trans-inclusionary and resists trans-antagonism.

• Recognition of patriarchy’s detrimental impact upon all genders and a commitment to subverting its manifestations within therapeutic practice.

• Challenging hegemonic and adaptive therapeutic orthodoxies.

• Re-conceptualising a liberatory feminist therapeutics.

• Creative inquiry into bridging the ‘personal’ and ‘political’ within therapeutic practice.

• Collective remembering and re-imagining of radical feminist therapeutic praxes.

• Fostering cultures of solidarity and critical consciousness in order to engage with feminist therapeutic work.

• Respectful, accountable dialogue held in an ethic of love that calls each other in, not out.

• Fierce Love.
