Here’s what people are saying:

  • I had the pleasure of working with Lewis Perdicou on a workshop called “Anti-Discrimination, De-Escalation and Boundaries” for the Active Listeners at Workman Arts. They also reviewed our Active Listener Handbook. Lewis is professional, knowledgeable, compassionate, and is able to adapt to any situation. They listened to what we wanted and was able to deliver on time. They are a pleasure to work with, and I look forward to working with them on many more projects in the future.

    - Senior Manager, Arts Based Organization

  • We, The Toronto Fringe Festival, have had the privilege to work with Lewis twice to support our teams in understanding de-escalation and other ways to support the artists, staff and volunteers we work with. Lewis creates a caring, supportive environment for learning and engaging in topics that can sometimes feel scary or intimidating. They allow space for mistakes and explore reasons why we hold certain beliefs. Lewis is adaptable to the needs of our organization while also reflecting on the reality of the world and what's going on that impacts each of us. We love Lewis and will continue to work with him whenever possible.

    - The Toronto Fringe Festival

  • Partnering with Perdicou Psychotherapy for an Anti-Oppressive Student Leadership workshop was the right choice. Lewis’s expertise in anti-oppressive practices brought awareness to the students and it also equipped them with practical tools for fostering inclusivity through an interactive workshop approach. Lewis’ ability to relay theoretical knowledge with practical strategies and lived experience helped foster a deeper understanding of equity and inclusion among our student leaders.

    - Coordinator, Laurentian University

  • Lewis facilitated a queer inclusion workshop for the francophone nursing students at Laurentian University, which I also attended, and it was truly eye-opening. They created a safe and welcoming space where we could openly discuss LGBTQ+ issues, and it was incredibly insightful to learn more about how to provide inclusive, empathetic care to all patients, regardless of their gender identity or sexual orientation. The practical tools and knowledge we gained will make us more compassionate, informed nurses, and we feel more confident in our ability to support LGBTQ+ patients with respect and dignity.
