Author, sacred disruptor & ancestral channel

Hey, I’m Dr. Jenn -

The Rage Doctor

I explore rage, emotional liberation, and what becomes possible when people stop abandoning themselves to survive. Most of us were never taught that our suppression was by design — that shrinking, performing, and dissociating were not personal failures but learned adaptations to systems that required our silence. I work with people who are done paying that price and who are ready to stop treating their own humanity as a threat.

Most people don't know how much they've had to abandon themselves just to make it through.

Twenty-plus years of this work and I am more certain of it now than I have ever been.

My work lives at the intersection of intergenerational trauma, nervous system science, colonial history, and ancestral intelligence. I don’t reject psychology, I metabolize it. What I’ve come to know is this: suppression was never a personal failure. It was a requirement. My work is about what becomes possible when people stop paying that price — not abstract liberation, but practice-level change, grounded in research, lived experience, and the wisdom our lineages never stopped holding.

MY JOURNEY

2001

First person in my family to graduate college

It planted the seed that education, healing, and possibility could exist together.

2004

Moved to Cali and joined the California Institute of Integral Studies Psy.D program

I realized traditional psychology alone couldn’t explain the suffering-or healing– I was witnessing.

2012

I successfully defended my dissertation

I was organizing politically and deepening my relationship to Indigenous teachings. This became part of the root system that would grow into Decolonizing Therapy.

2018

Decolonizing Therapy’s Instagram and community launched

What started as intimate community work evolved into a global movement and shared language for people longing for healing beyond colonial frameworks.

2020

I left the university system and became a full time business owner

It marked the beginning of trusting that my work could exist outside institutions and still deeply serve people.

2023

Published Decolonizing Therapy (W.W. Norton)

A National Bestseller that reshaped how thousands of therapists and healing practitioners understand race, trauma, and the limits of Western mental health.

2025

Signed with Hachette-Balance for Sacred Rage

Currently brewing: A new home for emotional liberation, and the book to guide you through it.

2026

Launched drjennifermullan.com and Center for Decolonizing Therapy

A new chapter of coming home to myself — and building the spaces where others can do the same.
