For this week, you will interview yourself while considering the concepts of “power” and “privilege” (or if you have a friend or family member that is willing, they could interview you with your pre-designed questions). How creative you get is up to you.

Here’s the scenario for your interview: You are yourself (so speak from your perspective). Envision that you are a therapist who works with multiple clients in multiple settings (e.g., in-home, telehealth, in office) and you have clients that are from multiple races/genders/sexual orientations/backgrounds/etc. Most of your clients live in poverty and/or do not have a high school diploma, some of your clients are considered disabled). You were picked for this interview on power and privilege in the therapy room for a local family therapy organization because of your work with such a diverse population. You will present your interview in Kaltura.

 References: Include a minimum of 3 scholarly resources. 

The first step in this assignment is to arrange a set of interview questions around the ideas of power and privilege. They should include the following themes:

• When you have felt power and privilege in your own life.
• Your own understanding of your own power and privilege.
• Examples of work with clients where you have been able to address power and privilege (answers will likely be “made up” for this – but consider some of the differences in the client population you work with).
• How telehealth might be beneficial with some communities that you work with (e.g., eliminates transportation costs, allows freedom for those that might be differently abled).
• Reflections on what you feel are your responsibility in the therapy room and out of the therapy room with regards to power and privilege
