IN SESSION #20: Therapy in times of imperial implosion

I am SO excited for this episode where I will be joined by some kickass clinician comrades, Mel Naa & Dana, who are all actively thinking through how we defy the carceral logics of the psy-fields, how to resist imperial cooptation, how to push against the seams of normative f**kery, and all the struggles and contradictions inherent to doing the work of therapy. We have a LOT to talk about and I can’t wait for folks to get front row to this conversation I know I have been wanting to have for a longgggggg time.

Melissa Lopez, aka Mel is a Fat, Q***r, Chicanx Femme- She’s been an antagonistic and unruly mental health therapist for 21 years.
Her practice includes working with people of various interlocking oppressions through an anti imperialist, anti white supremacy lens (she doesn’t give one f**k about “evidence based modalities).” Hobbies include pi***ng off white people, hating on something or another, obsessing over cats, raccoons, & Halloween/horror. The Coven, are the cats and dogs that make up her family.

Naa Adaku is a social worker who likes to giggle alot and calls herself an anti imperialist horse mom.
She is known as her neighborhoods friendly rebel in Ghana usually walking barefoot with a pack of dogs surrounding her or riding long distance motocross bikes. Her interests are china-africa relations, anti-blackness, African sovereignty and the eradication of femicide in Africa.

Dana is a social worker, psychotherapist, parent and comrade committed to a better world for all our children and all life on earth.  She lives in US-occupied Puerto Rico which is her partner’s ancestral home with their child, 2 cats and 7 chickens. 
Interests are anti-imperialism, disalienating psychotherapy, confronting liberals, feeding people, and quality time with her child and comrades.

The cat who showed up one day in my yard and never left - Burt Reynolds- the cow print cat ruining my black cat only vibes 🤣🤣🤣

She’s spicy and has taken some time adjusting to the Coven but no time in adjusting to having a warm safe place to sleep 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Moody Monday! Meme medicine 💊

I’ve been MIA (which is per usual post fire, but am okay w it). Life has been doing life with all the tragedies that are ongoing in the world and my personal ups and downs (medical flare ups etc).

I also lost one of my cats, Dulce aka baby Dulce - but thankfully she is safe and sound! It was a horrendous time until I found her !

Then in one week I fell TWICE! The last fall being on my face ! Both of these involved trying to help stray cats LOL. All cats were okay. 🤣🤣🤣

Needless to say I was thrilled to have attended the Spooky Swapmeet w my bff (the cactus ghost) - I’ve needed a fun outing and I remembered how much I love Halloween events. As many of you know I love horror and Halloween.

Sometimes something silly like throwing on sheets to act like ghosts can bring the most joy. (Last pics).

So happy mid way to Halloween 🎃 and remember to embrace the silly- sometimes - it’s what the heart needs.

The world is the world it always has been. Cruelty, heartache, injustice.

So I survive by finding moments to celebrate including celebrating this creature- the love of my life known as Stevie Nicks. From a shelter as a baby now 3 years as a spell casting supreme goddess.

FIND life making moments. Create them.
