Therapy is not neutral ground.
It is a practice of naming what others would rather leave unsaid.

Our culture pressures us to sanctify the dead, but death doesn’t erase the damage they caused. Grief can be freedom. Grief can be justice. Grief can be the release of knowing they can never hurt you again.

Liberation work is relational work!
On Sept 13, we’re gathering for the NBPOC Workshop: Loving Community for Non-Black People of Color. We’ll unpack internalized anti-Blackness and build practices that move us closer to real solidarity.

And you my sw community, are exactly that already. I’m offering supervision for folks making the transition. You already belong.
We don’t need more liberal therapists.
We need more anti-capitalist, abolitionist, socialist, communist, land-back, power-to-the-people mental health workers.

a lot of us weren’t taught how to be well.
we were taught how to be useful.
and now we’re trying to remember what it means to just be.

just a reminder that if you’re helping someone “regulate,” you also need to know what’s deregulating them—especially if it’s the state, racism, debt, or burnout.
not everything can be deep-breathed away.

Sometimes healing isn’t soft. Sometimes it’s sweaty, consensual, and full of safe words.
What if we honored kink as one of many valid tools in the trauma healing toolbox?

If your therapist centers compliance over consent, neutrality over justice, or diagnosis over your lived experience, they might not be supporting your healing.

Join us for a 2 hour thought provoking workshop and discussion designed to explore how clinicians understand class consciousness in therapeutic spaces and within mental health systems.
We will examine how class shows up in therapy - with clients, in supervision, and within ourselves.

As radical mental health workers at LWN we reject carceral psychology that labels resistance as pathology.
We stand with LA protestors shutting down ICE raids. 🔥 We stand with Madleen. 🇵🇸 We stand with every person who’s been told they’re “too much” for daring to feel in a fascist world. ✊🏾

Healers Are Human 💛 We hold space for others, but who holds space for us? We need spaces where we don’t have to be “strong.” Where we can be witnessed in our full humanity - raw, unraveling, uncertain, and still worthy of care.
