Thirty-four-year-old Amy Gallagher worked as a nurse at the Orpington Psychiatric Clinic on the outskirts of London. Last year she decided to further her qualifications and signed up for a psychotherapy course run by the National Health Service Foundation, the UK’s public health system. She completed the course at the Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust clinic.
During the course, as a white and Christian woman, she said she couldn’t believe her ears. The lecturers taught future psychotherapists about, among other things, that “white people don’t understand the world” or that “Christianity is racist because it is European.”
At another seminar it was said that “whiteness is the problem of today” or that “the problem of racism is a white problem”. The course also included the teaching of Critical Race Theory, which was interpreted as fact. Critical race theory describes race as a social construct and asserts, among other things, that a level playing field is not enough for oppressed races. That they need to be favored.

Gallagher was “temporarily” expelled from the course when she argued that “whiteness in itself does not make anyone racist”. At the same time, an investigation was ordered, which should clarify whether Gallagher, as a psychotherapist, would threaten her clients. Almost a year has passed and there is still no result. He still cannot extend his qualification.
This was not enough for one of the lecturers and he tried to prevent Gallagher from continuing to work as a nurse, the Daily Mail pointed out. In response, she sued the organizers for alleged racial and religious discrimination. The trial has not yet taken place.
The clinic itself said it would not comment on the nurse’s case.
Puberty suppression drugs
Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust has previously faced accusations that it gave young people anti-adolescence drugs without properly examining them first. Teenagers who were thinking about changing their gender came to the clinic for consultations.
Keira Bell, now 23, said she had been receiving puberty-blocking drugs at the clinic since she was 16. The clinic started this after only a three-hour consultation, during which the girl confided that she thought she was a boy. She had serious mental problems at the time. She now claims that instead of investigating the causes of her mental problems, doctors put her on puberty-blocking drugs and hormone therapy. That should give her time to think. She underwent a double mastectomy and lived as a man. But it didn’t solve her problem, she still had mental problems. Then she stopped taking the medicine and lives like a woman. She sued the clinic along with others. The court won the dispute, but the appeals court overturned the verdict due to procedural errors.
Authorities subsequently began to investigate practices at the clinic.
