decolonize healing

There is never one right waY

what is the “Decolonizing Healing” project

Following her Ministry studies, two-year thesis research project, and during her Doctoral studies, Shae was inspired to start a new initiative - the “Decolonizing Healing” project.

This is an initiative designed to address a rampant issue in our modern medical and mental health systems - the forced acculturation to “Western” ideals for healing and well-being. Ideals which are framed and informed by White ethnocentric, patriarchal and capitalist ideals of European colonialism.

Yes, Western medicine and mental health systems have value, but they are not the only way nor do they have to be the ONLY nor do we have to exist in our own silo. Decolonized healing and modern medicine and mental health can learn to co-exist.

And it is NOT just non-white bodied people who want this.

Stay tuned for more details as this project emerges!
