Decolonization harbors great potential as a transformative methodological innovation for advancing social justice in counseling psychology. One domain of colonized knowledge with relevance for the field is therapeutic expertise in American Indian communities. In this article, I draw extensively on vignettes from the life narrative of a historical Aaniiih-Gros Ventre medicine man to reveal various facets of his healing practices. I do so as an illustrative case example of a decolonial reclamation of Indigenous therapeutic traditions for the discipline. In discussing method, power, and process in association with decolonization, I first summarize emergent divergences between Indigenous traditional healing and modern counseling based on excerpted vignettes. Then, I observe that method in pursuing decolonization through Indigenous therapeutic reclamation is currently open to various forms of qualitative inquiry, that power in pursuit of Indigenous therapeutic reclamation must appraise the role of therapeutic regimes in the creation of modern subjects, and that process in pursuit of Indigenous therapeutic reclamation must allow for decolonization to extend to the repatriation of Indigenous relationships to land. Finally, I gesture beyond the consideration of Indigenous therapeutic traditions to trace the profound implications of a decolonization agenda for knowledge, practice, and training in counseling psychology.

作为咨询心理学方法论创新的非殖民化：恢复美洲印第安人治疗传统的方法、力量和过程。

非殖民化作为促进咨询心理学中的社会正义的变革性方法创新具有巨大潜力。与该领域相关的殖民知识领域之一是美洲印第安人社区的治疗专业知识。在这篇文章中，我广泛借鉴了一位历史悠久的 Aaniiih-Gros Ventre 医学家的生活叙事中的小插曲，以揭示他治疗实践的各个方面。我这样做是为了说明该学科的土著治疗传统的非殖民化开垦案例。在讨论与非殖民化相关的方法、权力和过程时，我首先总结了基于摘录的小插曲的土著传统治疗与现代咨询之间的新兴分歧。然后，我观察到通过土著治疗性开垦追求非殖民化的方法目前对各种形式的定性调查开放，追求土著治疗性开垦的力量必须评估治疗制度在创造现代主题中的作用，以及追求土著治疗的过程治疗性开垦必须允许非殖民化扩展到原住民关系回归土地。最后，我不再考虑土著治疗传统，而是追溯非殖民化议程对咨询心理学知识、实践和培训的深远影响。（PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2021 APA，保留所有权利）。追求土著治疗性开垦的权力必须评估治疗制度在创造现代主题中的作用，而追求土著治疗性开垦的过程必须允许非殖民化扩展到土著关系的遣返。最后，我不考虑土著治疗传统，而是追溯非殖民化议程对咨询心理学知识、实践和培训的深远影响。（PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2021 APA，保留所有权利）。追求土著治疗性开垦的权力必须评估治疗制度在创造现代主题中的作用，而追求土著治疗性开垦的过程必须允许非殖民化扩展到土著关系的遣返。最后，我不考虑土著治疗传统，而是追溯非殖民化议程对咨询心理学知识、实践和培训的深远影响。（PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2021 APA，保留所有权利）。我不考虑土著治疗传统，而是追溯非殖民化议程对咨询心理学知识、实践和培训的深远影响。（PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2021 APA，保留所有权利）。我不考虑土著治疗传统，而是追溯非殖民化议程对咨询心理学知识、实践和培训的深远影响。（PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2021 APA，保留所有权利）。
