Mental health frameworks weren't built with us in mind. So, what happens when we build our own? In this episode, we meet Gabrielle Tor, a Melanesian clinician and researcher based in Oregon, USA. Gabrielle is challenging what care looks like, and who it's built for.
We talk about what it means to decolonise psychology, why healing isn't individual, and how knowledge systems from the Pacific offer more than insight — they offer a way forward. Gabrielle is helping reframe mental health by centring culture, community, and climate in the conversation.
