Decolonizing Therapy: What It Looks Like in Practice
Let’s Get One Thing Straight: Therapy Has Some Baggage
If you’ve ever felt like traditional therapy was… a little stiff, a little clinical, or a little “So how does that make you feel?” for the 400th time—same. That’s because mainstream therapy was largely shaped by Eurocentric, colonial, patriarchal norms that didn’t include everyone’s lived experience. Decolonizing therapy asks us to name that. Challenge that. And then do better. At Well Grounded Therapy, we’re not here to recreate old systems. We’re here to flip the table, rebuild it, and make sure everyone has a damn seat that actually fits.
Getting Started with Therapy: What to Expect from a Direct Approach
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially if you’re someone who prefers straightforward communication. You might be looking for answers, clarity, and results without all the fluff. If that sounds like you, then a direct approach to therapy might be the perfect fit.
