The Path Home: Decolonizing Hearts and Minds is a weekly therapeutic group for people of the global majority and accomplices seeking to challenge, unlearn, and heal from internalized messages of colonization, supremacy, and oppression. Through guided reflection, discussion, and expressive practices, participants will explore how colonizing narratives have shaped identity, self-worth, relationships, and community connection. The group centers Indigenous and ancestral wisdom and honors each member’s unique cultural heritage. Together, we will reclaim narratives of liberation, restore collective dignity, and build tools for ongoing decolonial healing.
Facilitator: Abeytax (Ah-Bay-Tosh) Barana (they/them) is an Afro-Indigenous, queer therapist trainee in their second practicum term, writer, and community educator committed to creating spaces for radical healing and cultural reclamation. With a background in clinical psychology, Abeytax draws on Indigenous and earth-based practices, liberation psychology, and trauma-informed approaches to support clients and communities in decolonizing their minds, spirits, and relationships. Supervised by: Elizabeth Lenkeit Hoke, LMFT – License # T1440 & Shelly Stratton, PhD, LCSW – License # 7252, Liberation Institute.
