Objectives For This Course
OUR RAGE HAS BEEN SILENT, DISCARDED, MINIMIZED, AND OVERLOOKED FOR FAR TOO LONG
Our Rage is young and old in emotion and one we often turn inward on ourselves.
Rage is an accumulation of anger that was born of the known and unknown traumas in childhood.
Our Rage is an oppressed child, and it is my belief that part of our sacred work is to accept the deep dive into the psychological AND spiritual practices that allow us relief and understanding of the trauma of NOT having our experiences appropriately addressed.
Since Rage is born in the face of trauma, marginalized Black, brown & indigenous bodies are frequently on the front line of this burden. Our land, our People, our ancestral lineage have given many of us the divine opportunity to address this “demonization” of Rage. Rage simply wants to be seen, regarded, loved on & addressed. This is the time and the opening in our Collective Unconscious to do so.
I hope you join me.
IN OUR TIME TOGETHER,
YOU'LL LEARN:
⫸ How to acknowledge your Rage as a sacred container. You'll be better able to understand your Rage as a sign that your boundaries have been, or are being, crossed.
⫸ How to better understand the six disguises of Rage that we have established in childhood, as a way to survive & cope, and what this means for you, as outlined in Ruth King’s book, Healing Rage.
⫸ How to begin to understand the chords of connection between our own Sacred Rage and the trauma of ancestral lineage.

As a vital element of her current practice, Dr. Mullan believes it’s essential for mental health professionals to question the relatability of the mental health industrial complex—ultimately, to reassess their education and “whom they are serving?” To further advance this work, Dr. Mullan founded Decolonizing Therapy, LLC in 2018, and since, has built a significant social media platform, including 158,000 Instagram followers, and growing.

OFFERED ON A SLIDING SCALE OF $65-$150
This webinar replay is offered on a sliding scale of $65 - $150
The sliding scale pricing of this webinar replay is intended to be a map, inviting each of us to take inventory of our financial resources and look deeper at our levels of privilege. It is a way to challenge the classist and capitalist society we live in and work towards economic justice on a local level. While I ask you to take these factors into consideration, please don’t stress about it. Pay what feels right.
Consider Paying Less If You:
⫸ are supporting children or have other dependents
⫸ have significant debt
⫸ have medical expenses not covered by insurance
⫸ receive public assistance
⫸ have immigration-related expenses
⫸ are an elder with limited financial support
⫸ are an unpaid community organizer
⫸ are a returning citizen who has been denied work due to incarceration history
Consider Paying More If You:
⫸ own the home you live in
⫸ have investments, retirement accounts, or inherited money
⫸ travel recreationally
⫸ have access to family money and resources in times of need
⫸ work part-time by choice
⫸ have a relatively high degree of earning power due to level of education (or gender and racial privilege, class background, etc.) Even if you are not currently exercising your earning power, I ask you to recognize this as a choice.
Please be mindful that if you purchase a price at the lowest end of the scale when you can truthfully afford the higher ticket prices, you are limiting access to those who truly need the gift of financial flexibility.Being honest with yourself and your financial situation when engaging with sliding scale practices grows strong and sustainable communities. It also respects the work of teachers and creators, like me, who have families to support and rent to pay. Additionally, when I am paid fairly, I am able to invest more time and resources to free and lower-cost offerings.
THE EMOTIONAL DECOLONIAL PROCESS
We invite you to create space for yourselves in community with each other.
