RISE
Resilient Inclusive Sexual Health Education & Therapy
WELCOME
Decoding You is the result of our director, Dr. Lindsay Matthews-Naumann's, doctoral work and is FREE to access!
Decoding You is an interactive guide to exploring your Sexual Sense of Self ™. You might be asking, what in the world is a Sexual Sense of Self ™?
The Sexual Sense of Self is defined by an individual's personal, unique, and multifaceted perceptions of themselves in relation to sexuality. A Sexual Sense of Self ™ influences one's understanding of how they fit into larger societal structures.
Land Acknowledgement:
We are located on various stolen Lands that are sacred to a number of Indigenous Peoples, including but not limited to Tribes, Nations, and Peoples such as: Peoria, Anishinabewaki ᐊᓂᔑᓈᐯᐗᑭ, Bodwéwadmi (Potawatomi), Wyandot, and Meškwahki·aša·hina (Fox)
We thank the Indigenous Peoples for stewarding these Lands for generations. We pay respect to the Elders, past, present, and future.
For settlers on our team, we acknowledge we occupy and participate in exploitation of Land that are not native to us. As an organization, we advocate for Land Back and Indigenous Sovereignty. (Give the Land back).
We invite the mental health community to decolonize our ways of being and to dismantle colonial systems (our field included).
May we as a community consider our roles in the liberation, and restoration of Land, language, and culture for Indigenous Peoples globally.
RISE not only acknowledges the land that we occupy, but also contributes a portion of our income to the original stewards of the land.
