Healing Justice: Dr. Han Ren on Systemic Oppression and Therapy

Ask them where they are in their own identity work, because we cannot be healers and, you know, serve others if we don't do our own work. We can only take people as far as where you've been able to excavate ourselves.
Ever wondered how systemic oppression impacts mental health? In this episode of 'Healing from the Inside', host Kina Penelope sits down with Dr. Han Ren to unravel the intricate ties between social systems of oppression and complex trauma. They dive into how justice-oriented and anti-oppression work can transform therapy into a powerful tool for healing marginalized communities. Dr. Ren shares insights on intergenerational trauma, cultural competence, and the often-overlooked issue of gaslighting in therapy.
This conversation is not just about identifying problems but also about finding pathways to healing through identity work and cultural awareness. Whether you're grappling with your own experiences or seeking to understand how to be a better ally and healer, this episode offers a blend of practical advice and profound reflections. Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion that bridges the gap between mental health and social justice.
