Land Acknowledgement

Light Heart Therapy offices and the surrounding areas are located on stolen land of Miwok, Patwin, Pomo, and Onasatis Peoples who arrived here more than 11,000 years ago. It is an act of respect and responsibility to acknowledge these facts.

We acknowledge the violence, discrimination, colonization, forced relocation, tokenization, and attempted genocide inflicted on people here before us. 

We are heartfelt in our hopes of building coalitions, collaboration, mutual empathy, repair, and justice. 

We are committed to ongoing learning about the truth of what has happened, giving of our time and gifts, and connection with The Land and The People. 

In past locations (Lisjan territories of Chochenyo Ohlone), Light Heart Therapy has given Shuumi Land Tax for rematriation of the land. We continue to seek meaningful ways of being with history, herstory, and our story. We are currently appreciating The Henceforward, a podcast that considers relationships between Indigenous Peoples and Black Peoples on Turtle Island.
