A revolution is a transformative shift that redefines the status quo, driving meaningful and lasting change.

As a new and growing collective, Revolution Therapy & Wellness is committed to moving through our work in culturally responsible ways while building stronger connections with our Indigenous kin. 

We acknowledge that we practice on Treaty 7 Territory, in Mohkinstsis (Calgary), on the traditional and ongoing lands of the Siksika, Kainai, and Piikani Nations of the Blackfoot Confederacy; the Îyâxe Nakoda Nations, including the Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Goodstoney First Nations; the Tsuut’ina Nation; and the Métis people of Districts 5 and 6 within Alberta. These lands have long been cared for by the original knowledge keepers, who continue to protect the sacred stories, medicines, and teachings that have existed here since time immemorial.

We recognize that true reconciliation is an active and ongoing process. As we grow, we acknowledge that part of our responsibility is to hold humility in recognizing our mistakes and taking reparative action when we fall short. Reconciliation is not about performative gestures—it is about making meaningful corrections, listening deeply, and honouring Indigenous sovereignty in every step forward.

This is not just a statement—it is a responsibility. Healing is collective, justice is necessary, and reconciliation demands action, humility, and the willingness to make real change.

We recognize that decolonization is not just a metaphor, and we encourage ongoing reflection on what it truly means to engage in decolonial practice within therapeutic, collective, and community spaces.

For those unfamiliar with this important concept, we invite you to read the seminal article:

Tuck, E. & Yang, K. W. (2012). Decolonization is not a metaphor. Decolonization: Indigeneity, Education & Society, 1(1), 1–40.

This resource challenges us to confront how settler colonialism persists and how we can meaningfully engage in the work of decolonization—not as a metaphor, but as a responsibility.
