Therapy can be a big help for some people. But for stressed-out parents, healing our old wounds and stepping up for our kiddos often requires a different approach. One of my Masterminders, Dr. Shawn Hondorp, has experienced this disconnect from the inside. Shawn is an experienced clinical psychologist who isn't satisfied with the tools and techniques of the traditional diagnostic therapy methods. She's developing a new approach to improving mental health.Shawn's practices reject pathology and easy labels. Instead, they help you identify your old patterns of thoughts and feelings, understand why they were woven, and put them to work in ways that help rather than hinder your growth. I'm honored that working with me has helped her find the courage to share this new vision of what therapy can accomplish, and I can't wait for you to learn about it!In this episode, you'll learn:How a focus on efficiency and accomplishment can actually cost us - and our kiddos - more time and energy in the long run.The real reason why we struggle with negative self talk, and how that context can help you keep it from overwhelming you.Why pack leaders need other pack leaders they can lean on and grow with.And much more!

Episode 112. It's official. It is here. This week's episode is all about the new podcast, The Innovative Therapist Podcast. This name and shifting of the podcast reflects my internal shifts, and who I am becoming and permission for all of us to think more creatively with regards to how we think about healing. In this episode, I will tell you what to expect in the new podcast. What will be different and what will be the same. I will also share how I am different, and some of the experiences and people that led to those shifts. I cannot wait to share it with you! What to Expect in this episode: My reason for changing the name of the podcast to The Innovative Therapist Podcast Who it is geared towards (FYI: it isn't just for therapists, but for anyone interested in thinking deeply and creatively about innovative approaches to healing) Why I am probably not going to be recording in the same space anymore, and why How the shifts you see in this podcast and other aspects of my business reflect internal shifts happening in me, and me learning to listen to and trust my body more and more (aka "walking the walk," if you will) What to expect in the future (e.g., more interviews with therapists who have paved their way and began doing meaningful work outside of the traditional 1 on 1 client work, among other creative guests and solo topics), more interviews with therapists and other professionals willing to challenge the status quo and question our traditional way of doing things (e.g., like my conversation with Dr. Adia Gooden a long time ago where we talked about sharing about ourselves as psychologists and how it's so different than what we learned to do in training) The book I'm reading right now, Decolonizing Therapy by Dr. Jennifer Mullan, and what I'm learning from it so far and how it's helping me think creatively about our role as helping professionals and some of the reasons the traditional therapy model never felt quite right to me (and how this book is adding to the learning I got from reading Decolonizing Wellness by Dalia Kinsey, Check out my conversation with Dalia Kinsey to explore this) How and why I'll be continuing to explore evidence-based approaches as well as other "alternative" healing modalities (with less official research backing, but equally as important explore with an open mind) What I'm thinking in terms of the motivation questions at the end, and the music for the podcast, and how I'm letting a lot of this evolve naturally (and how incredibly different that is from my prior approaches) Things coming up in my world that I'm excited about!

The Innovative Therapist podcast is for you if you want honest conversations about what works and what doesn't for learning to trust our bodies and doing deeply healing work (for our clients and ourselves) It's about having honest conversations with therapists and other professionals about their journeys and how they learned to listen to themselves and pursue work that felt deeply meaningful and energizing to them “I know I shouldn't focus on weight loss, but…” (Polarized Parts Alert!)

I genuinely enjoyed my Sacred Conversation with Dr. Jennifer Mullan, PsyD., creator of Decolonizing Therapy: a psychological evolution that weaves together political, ancestral, therapeutic, and global well-being (@decolonizingtherapy on IG). Dr. Jenn is a major disruptor in the mental health industrial complex. Her work is an urgent call to dive to the root of global and generational trauma to unlock the wisdom of our sacred rage. She is also the author of the recently released book Decolonizing Therapy: Oppression, Historical Trauma, and Politicizing Your Practice, a Love letter and call to action for helpers, healers, therapists, and space-holders struggling inside the mental health industrial complex. As I move through her book, I am awash in the absolutely beautiful and Loving poetry of her language, heart, and calling.Dr. Jenn and I had ourselves just a down-home, mighty good time. This is all I will say about our conversation. I am excited for you to listen and enjoy yourself just as much.Sacred Conversations are periodic episodes of my podcast in which I reach out to people whose work and life inspire me, and we simply have an old fashioned phone conversation. No video. No scripted, transactional, extractive, one-sided interview dynamic. Just two people with a care and curiosity for each other's journey, asking each other soulful questions, and enjoying the ancient, mutually healing art of listening deeply. Again, not an interview. A spiritual communion. The idea is for us to relax and enjoy an organic conversation, like over tea or breaking bread, and get to know each other along the way.

“Rage has many facets, and grief cannot be separated from rage.” If you've worked in mental health, social work, psychology, healing or mutual aid, you're likely very aware that this work is unsustainable and often dehumanizing. So, what can we do about it and how can we use our collective power for change? In this conversation, I get to speak with Dr. Jennifer Mullan, a force of nature and founder of Decolonizing Therapy®, a groundbreaking psychological paradigm that seamlessly integrates political, ancestral, therapeutic, and global well-being. As a major disruptor in the mental health industrial complex, Dr. Jenn's work is an urgent call to dive to the root of global and intergenerational trauma, unlocking the wisdom of our sacred rage. In this episode, we delve into the profound impact of ancestral and historical trauma, illuminating the ways in which these wounds reverberate through our collective psyche. Dr. Jenn offers invaluable insights for support workers seeking to shift and politicize their practice. We discuss**:** The profound impact of ancestral and historical trauma and what decolonizing mental health really means How psychology was founded on the co-optation and exploitation of indigenous practices Sacred rage as a powerful force for collective transformation Practical guidance for navigating the complexities of being a support worker in a eurocentric, capitalist society Why mental health can't be separated from political and spiritual work Bio: Jennifer Mullan, PsyD, is a major disruptor in the mental health industrial complex.

“In order to experience true joy, it also means that we have to experience this variety of emotions.” This episode is a little different and was hosted with a studio audience in New York, NY at Brace Life Studio. Conversing with Dr. Jennifer Mullan, of Decolonizing Therapy at Triggered AF's first live event, The Evolve Experience, was life-altering. Dr. Jennifer helped us to begin to unpack the different ways to identify and release our rage. It is essential to acknowledge what is and be intentional about finding places and spaces where you can be revitalized.  Sometimes rage gets a bad rap. There are different layers of rage and acknowledging ways to rejuvenate yourself so that these past experiences are not controlling us is vital. Find ways to include compassion and grace within your life's experiences that may trigger rage. Learning how to release your rage in healthy ways helps you to remain in control.    KEY POINTS: Events like colonization and historical trauma have an impact on everything and everyone surrounding us. Most traumatic events are associated with these events. The lack of love and affection we all deserve is missing from our everyday lives. If a situation begins controlling you, remove yourself before it escalates.   When trauma happens it didn't just verbally happen, your body had a response and it keeps the score. And if it's keeping score it needs a way to release some of that pain in order for it to start to heal.    Anything related to trauma is like a mirror being held. And it requires people to self-reflect and not everyone is ready to look at things that are buried or are painful so it's important to meet people where they are.    Anxiety, panic attacks, depression, and illness manifests when we keep swallowing our emotions versus having a conversation or admitting we need help. QUOTABLES: “Find ways to release rage in a healthy manner.”    “We do better together than separated”   “The stigma of people thinking we're weak many times keeps us from seeking or asking for help.”    “Don't only just stuck in what feels good or bypassing [your emotions] and jumping to what feels good.”    CONNECT WITH OUR GUEST: Dr. Jennifer Mullan Website | http://decolonizingtherapy.com IG | https://instagram.com/decolonizingtherapy FB | https://facebook.com/DecolonizingTherapy   CONNECT WITH YOUR HOSTS: Alechia Reese For coaching, visit: http://gotvaluenation.com Instagram | instagram.com/alechiareese LinkedIn | linkedin.com/alechiareese Dani Bourdeau For coaching, visit: http://danifostercoaching.com Instagram.com/thedanibourdeau   RESOURCES: For more info, visit: http://triggeredafpodcast.com   Like what you're hearing?

Dr. Jennifer Mullan (she/her), affectionately nicknamed “the Rage Doctor” by peers and clients, is trained as a Clinical Psychologist, is a published author, and is the CEO and founder of Decolonizing Therapy. She seeks to unpack the oppressive legacy of modern mental health practices, and reconnect practitioners and clients to the roots of our wounding and healing within a sociopolitical lens, most particularly for Queer Indigenous Black Brown People of Color (QIBPOC). In this episode, Dr. Jennifer Mullan and Emily unpack some of the systemic problems within therapy and social work and where these current models are dehumanizing and incomplete; how diagnosing can be limiting, harmful and problematic; the importance of looking at ancestral lineage, trauma, and ways of healing; and lovingly making space for sacred rage. You can learn more about Decolonizing Therapy here, and follow Dr. Jennifer Mullan on Instagram, Twitter, and/or Facebook  You can find full transcripts, links, and other information on our website.

On today's episode of Off the Cuff with Danny LoPriore, clinical psychologist, teacher, speaker, writer, and Founder of Decolonizing Therapy, Dr. Jennifer Mullan is joining me to discuss all things related to rage as well as how the intersectionalities of history, race, and oppression play a role in the mental well-being of people today.    “We gotta acknowledge that, “oh wait. This shit happened.” Or, “oh wait, part, or half, or all of my ancestors did some horrible shit. How did that pass down to me? How am I transmuting that?” Right? And so Decolonizing Therapy in its core is, I think, looking at the collective shadow…that underbelly that the world doesn't want to look at and what has happened historically and how that in the current day is impacting the well-being, the relationships, the money in the pockets, the health - the mental and physical health, the spiritual health of people today. What we seek to do is help people honor big feelings like grief and rage, which are two sides of the same coin…(25:11)   We chat about all the shapes and forms rage takes, the social stigma surrounding how rage is displayed, the many reasons people display rage, and the over-pathologizing of rage as various mental health/behavioral disorders.    “We're dealing with mass trauma from civil rights. Then you're dealing with all the crazy shit that has happened in the last 40 years or so until what's happening now. I call it the “trauma burger.” What's happening currently is the patty. And then you have your childhood shit and hurt, trauma, bullying, whatever you've gone through is the bottom. And then the stuff that our parents, ancestors, and other people dealt with. And you're eating that shit every single day.”  (35:54)   She also shares the origins of becoming “The Rage Doctor,” the beginning of Decolonizing Therapy, the historical and generational trauma and pain behind grief and rage, how to sit with ancestral shame, and the importance of having a healthy relationship with your trauma.   “I would create a little space for it so that: A) energetically and metaphorically, there is space for it in your life, and you don't have to fucking inhabit it. You can put that shit on a shelf…” (43:40)   In This Episode:  (2:28) Did you know what you wanted to be when you grew up as a kid? (4:22) Empathy is a beautiful thing these days  (5:53) Let's talk about family (7:50) Navigating life and racial identity  (11:27) “The Rage Doctor” breaks down the root causes of human rage (17:50) Finding a good therapist is like dating (20:12) Dissecting Decolonizing Therapy: breaking down generational and historical trauma (29:00) You are NOT your diagnosis   (33:20) Every generation has a different burden to bear  (40:05) Therapy alone might not be enough for everyone's healing process (42:37) Create a space so you can tend to your big emotions daily  (46:23) Having a healthy relationship with your trauma     Our Guest Dr. Jennifer Mullan is a psychologist, speaker, writer, and Founder of Decolonizing Therapy. With a deep understanding of rage, trauma, and the intersectionality of race, she does not want you to just learn to cope with your big emotions - she wants to help you heal your past and develop a healthy relationship with those emotions: whether it's rage, trauma, grief, shame, or anything else you feel. Dr. Jennifer developed Decolonizing Therapy to shift away from the outdated goals of therapy and help people reconnect with their historical and ancestral experiences to heal from the traumas that often go unseen and unacknowledged by the Eurocentric methods of wellness.   Resources & Links Off The Cuff https://www.offthecuff.fm/ https://www.youtube.com/c/OffTheCuffwithDannyLoPriore https://www.instagram.com/1and1otc/ https://www.instagram.com/dannylopriore/   Dr. Jennifer Mullan  https://www.decolonizingtherapy.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/drjennifermullan/ https://www.facebook.com/DecolonizingTherapy/ https://www.instagram.com/decolonizingtherapy/ https://www.amazon.com/Decolonizing-Therapy-Oppression-Historical-Politicizing/dp/1324019166

Anger is one of the most misunderstood and repressed emotions. There are many ways we dishonor our anger culturally and societally, yet there is so much power and wisdom in our anger when we learn ways to express it without causing harm or violence. Here are a few mistakes I've made in the process of learning to honor my anger and what I do now to listen to it.

At the end of each podcast episode, I close by saying, "we will see you again on the dark side of the moon". I chose this language because of the way moon phases have been divinely associated with menstruation throughout antiquity. The dark side of the moon is under the dominion of the crone, the wise one, the astrological sign of Scorpio, the goddess Hecate, and Orisa Oya. It is a place of power, ancient magic, healing, ancestral connection and transformation. The idea of the dark side of the moon may also illicit an image of place that is cold, barren, volatile and inhabitable. If I'm honest, the latter imagery has also come to mind for me more than I wanted to acknowledge and I felt conflicted about wanting to intentionally explore a space that felt like a distant dark outpost---uninviting, isolating and possibly dangerous. How would I reconcile these feelings and step more fully into this unknown? It sounds simplistic, but I decided to trust my gut because my wisdom and the ancient wisdom of the people who have come before me lives there. I had a hunch that there had to be more to the dark side of the moon. I had a hunch that in the place ripe for the deep shadow work of unlearning the hard wiring we have received around the evolving and aging bodies of women, women identified and gender expansive people, there would be evidence of life flourishing in a new form. Much like the deeper depths of the ocean, the dark side of the moon, menopause and aging has been woefully unexplored leading to cultural and societal assumptions and norms that problematize and pathologizes this transformation. I decided to focus on the dark side of the moon, for people navigating menopause and aging, as a potent place of liminality and rites of passage. An in betweenness and a pathway of exploration in need of illumination. A place where we could re-write the story menopause and aging together honoring ALL our voices. Welcome to our first recap! In this dispatch from our basecamp on the dark side of the moon, you will hear some of the voices, narratives, questions and wisdom offered to our podcast during Season 3. As we prepare to launch Season 4 of the Black Girl's Guide to Surviving Menopause, the entire team wants to thank you for joining us on this journey. We also hope to continue to carve a wide and well lit path for other folks finding their way and we are eager to learn more about the rich experiences of people navigating menopause at the intersections of their personhood, truths, hopes and dreams. See you soon!

"Often, when people talk about going through “the change”, it brings up all the images of a tearful, rageful, sweaty and emotional woman. This journey is not seen or held up as a positive transformation with a spectrum of stages and manifestations, but an ending to be cloaked in fear. Another, more potent way to frame the menopausal experience is to see it as actually another powerful representation of a rite of passage that is present to the liminality of the experience. In anthropology, liminality is “the quality of ambiguity or disorientation that occurs in the middle stage of rituals, when participants no longer hold their pre-ritual status but have not yet begun the transition to the status they will hold when the ritual is complete.” It is believed that during these liminal periods of transformation, social hierarchies may be reversed or even temporarily dissolved. The constancy of cultural traditions can become uncertain, and future outcomes once taken for granted may be thrown into doubt. The dissolution of order during liminality creates a fluid, malleable situation that enables new institutions and customs to become established. It is a transformation to a new iteration of you." Becoming (Again), Omisade Burney-Scott, WUNC's Souther Witness Well here we are! Our last episode of Season 3! We cannot think of a better way to round this dynamic season than to have a frank conversation with Dr. Jennifer Mullan of Decolonizing Therapy ™. Dr. Mullan and I explore her psychoanalyst practice grounded in understanding systems of oppression, generational and cultural trauma as well as her deep commitment to helping people develop tools and rituals to not address grief and rage, but rather to foster right relationships with these two potent emotions. Affectionately nicknamed “the Rage Doctor” by peers and clients, Dr. Jennifer Mullan (she/her) is trained as a Clinical Psychologist, is a published author and is the founder of Decolonizing Therapy, LLC. She currently serves communities as a Consultant, Therapeutic Coach, Ancestral wound worker who seeks to unpack the oppressive legacy of modern mental health practices, particularly for Queer Indigenous Black Brown People of Color (QIBPOC). Through her Collective Group Healing work and Decolonizing Therapy practice, she creates safe spaces for people and organizations to heal, and guides people from all walks of life to unpack the oppression that has been unconsciously passed down—intrapsychically and socially—and continues to live on in our bodies today.

CW: SuicideThis episode is very close to my heart. It's about a heavy topic, and I encourage you to take your time listening to it, or step away from it if it's too much.In this episode, I talk to four people, all of whom have a relationship to suicide. I speak with Monica (they/them), a freelance musician whose flexible jobs allows them to maintain their mental health; Henry Ling (he/him), who found support for mental health and suicidal ideation on YouTube; Avanti (they/she), who is training to be a therapist but wants to disrupt what therapy can look like in favor of abolition and community care; and Melody Li (佢/any) a therapist who embodies a decolonized perspective.We talk about the lack of financial and culturally-specific access to mental health care, how suicide is criminalized, and how we can try to look at suicide prevention from a space of care, sharing stories, and slowing down.Links:Melody Li's mental health directory and community Inclusive Therapists: www.inclusivetherapists.comNisha's interview with Dr. Jennifer Mullan from Decolonizing Therapy: https://www.thehealinghype.com/p/a-conversation-with-decolonizingSupport the show (http://www.patreon.com/migrasians)

Dr. Jennifer Mullan trained as a psychologist but quickly realized that so much of what we call therapy doesn't get to the root of systematic oppression.  That realization led her to start Decolonizing Therapy.  In this interview she talks about that work.Find more here:https://www.drjennifermullan.com/Dr. Jennifer Mullan  creates spaces for people and organizations to heal.  She believes that it is essential to create a dialogue to address how mental health is deeply affected by systemic inequities and the trauma of oppression.  Dr. Mullan has earned her Doctorate of Psychology (Psy.D) in Clinical Psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies; a Master's in Counseling & Community Agencies from New York University's Steinhardt School of Education; and her Bachelors of Arts in Psychology and Elementary Education, from New Jersey City University.  She notes that her dissertation: “Slavery and the Intergenerational Transmission of Trauma in Inner-City African American Male Youth: From the Cotton Fields to the Concrete Jungle,” has been a primary foundation for her current work in furthering emotional wellness on a larger collective scale for communities of color.   Dr. Mullan is currently a full-time Psychologist at New Jersey City University's Counseling Center, facilitator for the campus LGBTQIA+ Support group, Coordinator of the University's nationally recognized Peer Education program (Peers Educating Peers).  She has almost 15 years of experience in clinical practice, higher education, teaching, and grant writing.  She is passionately committed to solidarity work that effectively addresses inequities based on race, gender, class, ability, gender identity, and sexual orientation. Her professional research and clinical interests include complex and intergenerational trauma, group psychotherapy, LGBTQIA wellness, spirituality & mindfulness practices, racism as trauma, healing in therapeutic settings, self-love as a revolutionary act, and the process of decolonizing mental health. Social Media has been a primary platform for Dr. Mullan's current work in politicizing therapy and emotional health on a larger collective scale, with over 53K followers on Instagram.  In 2019, she founded Decolonizing Therapy, LLC. They seek to create spaces to “call mental health professions IN” (rather than call people out). Dr. Mullan believes it is essential to ask mental health professionals to reassess their education, “whom they are serving? “and begin to question the relatability of the mental health industrial complex to the People they serve.  It is her belief that we can tend to our emotional/ mental health AND hold systemic oppression accountable. You can frequently hear Dr. Mullan stating, “Everything is political!”   Dr. Mullan also centralizes Historical and Intergenerational Trauma, which she identifies as Ancestral Trauma, at the crux of decolonization work. Through the movement of Decolonizing Therapy, Dr. Mullan can be found providing international keynotes, holding Radicalizing Rage workshops, doing Coaching sessions while un-training mental health professionals and providing Ancestral healing sessions.Whether on stage or through her writing, Dr. Mullan offers conscious, clear, and authentic dialogue that is a healing interchange of therapy, intersectional awareness, social justice work, and practical interventions that pave a path for her participants to carve out a purposeful life for themselves.  She is passionate about helping people and movements define their own healing and resistance to oppression. She loves cats, the ocean, brunch, dancing, and affirmation cards. www.charukumarhia.com www.charukumarhia.com

Hi everyone. I hope you are doing well wherever you are. The George Flyod trial finally finished up and I feel institutions are already forgetting how much more work there needs to be done. As always, the question is where do we go from here and what else can we do. Only time will tell. We shall see. But for today, I am interviewing Dr. Yewande Pearse, a neuroscientist and science communicator. Born and bred in North London, Yewande got her Ph.D. from the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience at King’s College London, and is now a Postdoctoral Fellow at The Lundquist Institute at Harbor-UCLA. Her research interests focus on rare genetic disorders of the brain, and stem cell therapy.I first learned about Yewande through a show she curated me in at Naval LA, where she sits on the Programming Committee. I also watched some of the programming related to the exhibition, which focused on the impact of genomic studies on three aspects of identity: race, gender and politics. Yewande also hosts a few monthly radio shows and podcasts, such as Sound Science, Inside Biotech, and First Fridays for the Natural History Museum LA. On top of Yewande's prolific output as a podcaster, Yewande writes for Massive, an online science publication. For all these reasons, I was excited to finally talk with Yewande about her scientific work, her podcasting work, and her special science experiment work with John Legend. As always, stay safe and healthy and I hope you enjoy this.Links Mentioned:Yewande's WebsiteYewande's InstagramYewande and John LegendSound Science PodcastYewande at Massive ScienceNavalRACE, GENETICS, AND THE 0.1% with Dr. Terence Keel and Dr. Aaron PanofskyBatten DiseaseSound Science interview with Dr. Shawntel Okonkwo: Black in STEMDr. Jennifer Mullan of Deoclonizing ThearapyEvelynn Escobar's Hike Clerb Inc.Follow Seeing Color:Seeing Color WebsiteSubscribe on Apple PodcastsFacebookTwitterInstagram

It is well known that mental healthcare and therapy are not systems that are readily accessible to everyone, especially those from marginalized communities. Created and maintained by white men, most traditional therapeutic practices do not address systematic oppression, ancestral trauma, LGTBQIA+ mental health and wellness, and the general mental, emotional, or physical plight of BIPOC and marginalized communities. Psychologist and CIIS alumni Dr. Jennifer Mullan has spent much of her career addressing these inequities and providing spaces for healing through the use of decolonizing practices like centralizing historical and intergenerational trauma, which she identifies as ancestral trauma. In this episode, educator and sexologist Bianca Laureano joins Dr. Mullan for a warm and powerful conversation exploring how we can tend to our emotional and mental health while also holding systemic oppression accountable. This episode was recorded during a live online event on March 11, 2021. A transcript is available at ciispod.com. You can also watch a recording of this and many more of our conversation events by searching for “CIIS Public Programs” on YouTube.

Welcome back to Therapy Chat! This week, host Laura Reagan, LCSW-C interviews Dr. Han Ren (she/they) who is doing big things on social media to normalize C-PTSD symptoms, promote liberatory psychology and anti-oppression work and show that being human is not a problem - even if you're a mental health professional. In fact, as a mental health professional it can be an asset to share your lived experience. Dr. Han Ren is the co-owner of Pivot Psychology in Austin, Texas. She has a background in school psychology and primarily works with high achieving young adults at present. In this conversation she explained the concepts of liberation focused psychology and anti carceral movements and provided some resources for listeners to learn more via Instagram accounts; and she and Laura discussed how therapists may inadvertently shame clients due to our own fears and lack of understanding of the most effective ways to help clients change coping strategies which were once helpful, but now cause problems. Han shares a compassionate perspective on the function of “maladaptive” coping strategies, seeing them as adaptations which helped the individual survive during traumatic experiences. She talks about how our behavioral interventions that aren't relational can cause clients to feel shame and then use masking instead of feeling safe to show up authentically and actually receive the help they're coming to therapy for. Listen to this thought provoking episode and let us know your thoughts!Dr. Han Ren's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr.han.ren/ Dr. Han Ren's group practice based in Texas: https://www.pivotpsychologyatx.com/ Dr. Han Ren's Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drhanren Resources for learning about Anti-Carceral/Liberation Psychology via Instagram as mentioned in this episode:Body Justice Therapist Allyson Inez Ford https://www.instagram.com/bodyjustice.therapist/Project LETS https://www.instagram.com/projectlets/Fireweed Collective HJ: https://www.instagram.com/fireweedcollectivehj/ Dr. Jennifer Mullan: https://www.instagram.com/decolonizingtherapy/ Learn more about CAMS Care: https://cams-care.com/resources/educational-content/Additional resources for this episode:Find Therapy Chat on TikTok at: https://tiktok.com/@therapychatpod Get 16 meals for FREE when you try HelloFresh using our coupon code!
