You've spent the last few weeks studying the Herstory pedagogy as it applies to all teachers and counselors. This chapter will help you to shape your own way of allowing this work to be applicable to your special role as a school counselor, social worker, or psychologist.

You have followed the work of Latashen Johnson-Lowe in previous chapters. Now listen to how she has shaped her own page one moment as part of her training to use her social work background and to work with high school students. Latashen shared bits of her story orally in the first weeks of working with her students before she read them the whole written piece. As you listen and think about the story that you started to write, think about which parts you might want to share in the process of beginning to build trust.
