It’s perfectly okay to ask your therapist about their political affiliation.

Psychology has long been weaponized for social control & eugenics, pathologizing dissent, and justifying oppression. From "Trump Derangement Syndrome" to race science creeping into mainstream politics, we’re seeing it again. Beware how power twists "science" to serve its agenda.
“Trump derangement syndrome”: US lawmakers push to classify criticism of President Trump as a mental illness.

Critics of the bill argue it raises concerns about politicizing mental health diagnoses, which could potentially misappropriate care resources and suppress political expression and dissent.

As therapists, it's not enough to be anti-oppressive or “culturally competent” -
we need to be anti-fascist, anti-state violence, and anti-colonial.

Let’s be real - leftist spaces can be some of the most toxic environments.
White supremacy, capitalism, and colonialism don’t need to destroy us when we’re out here doing their job.

White racism is consistently the biggest threat to this country. The devastation of the Civil War, Jim Crow, racial uprisings, and other social ills can all be directly linked to it. And it is not happenstance that a white South African is the one currently destroying our constitutional order.

Not everyone “needs” therapy - many simply need access to basic universal rights.

"It’s unclear when the website, which lists mostly Black employees who work in agencies primarily within the Department of Health and Human Services, first appeared."
Federal health workers are expressing fear and alarm after a website called “DEI Watch List” published the photos, names and public information of a number of workers across health agencies, describing them as “targets.”

If you're wondering whether you should promote your book or your latest publication now with all the chaos, the answer is yes. We need your words. We need to flood the channels with art and literature. So go for it, friends.

It’s 2025, if a therapist still claims to be “apolitical,” that’s a red flag! Neutrality is a privilege, and in a world built on oppression, silence always sides with the status quo.

Therapy is political because it exists within systems shaped by colonialism, capitalism, racism, ableism , heteronormativity & white supremacy.
Mental health frameworks have been used to pathologize historically targeted communities while upholding norms that serve the state and dominant culture.

Really weird watching a coup in real time from my desk at work, putting in my usual hours. In the movies, everyone is at home or on the streets protesting. Makes it feel surreal.
