I keep reflecting on "what is therapy"

And how colonialism has affected the way many of us understand wellbeing, healing, & help.

Like how..I wish I could remember the source..there is a tribes that when someone is depressed it becomes a community effort to care for them where they cannot care for themselves & speak words of honest affirmation.

The ideas are less on talking through things & more on community intigration..which, like..I guess would also be practical within restorative & transformative justice things?

I really appreciate learning more about how healing & healers are integrated within disability justice, & more so than only centering things around professionally deemed therapy.

It& #39;s so frustrating how much of professionalism is also associated with colonialism & It& #39;s products.

Because it& #39;s good & important to have regulation, but it& #39;s also the worst how Indigenous & communal ways of healing aren& #39;t recognized as being valid.
