Animist Psychology
The field of psychology continues to grapple with colonialist legacies, reductionist approaches to the psyche, and disproportionate centering of European-ancestored voices. Sustained engagement with traditions of ritual and Earth-honoring practice can serve as a modest corrective to this tendency.
This course is an offering for mental health professionals, ritualists of diverse traditions, and anyone interested in the intersections of Earth, culture, and psyche. Lessons are pragmatic and accessible, and participants can expect to more easily identify and navigate the intersections of psychology, ritual arts, and cultural dynamics in your personal life and communities of practice.

Each lesson is at least 90 minutes in duration and includes guided practices:
- Lesson One: Animism, Colonialism, and Earth-Honoring Psychologies
- Lesson Two: Attachment Theory, Intimacy, and Loving the Earth​
- Lesson Three: Ancestral Healing, Trauma, and Resilience
