Liberation Healing

Liberation healing is grounded in the belief that personal struggles don’t exist separately from the world around us—they are shaped by the social systems we move through every day. Experiences like anxiety, depression, and trauma often arise not only from individual history, but also from societal forces such as racism, homophobia, transphobia, fatphobia, and ableism. While traditional therapy tends to focus mainly on the individual, liberation work acknowledges that systemic injustice profoundly affects emotional well-being. By naming these realities, therapy becomes a place where you don’t have to carry blame for struggles that are actually linked to oppressive environments. Instead, you’re invited to examine how these forces have influenced your identity and begin reconnecting with personal agency.

Liberation healing uses a decolonial and anti-oppressive lens to help you disentangle from harmful cultural narratives and reconnect with your inherent worth, values, and community. This process is not only about surviving oppression—it also supports resistance, empowerment, and the cultivation of joy. Therapy can help nurture resilience, address identity-based trauma, and build self-compassion in a society that often marginalizes certain identities. In this space, your lived experiences are respected, your emotions are taken seriously, and your healing is viewed as a liberatory act—not only for you, but for those who come after you.
