A Friend is Calling

4

By Kaitlin Cochran

Understanding people’s personal narrative is imperative in decolonizing trauma work and can make it significantly more accessible to anyone interested. Otherwise, being silenced, ignored, or seen as a number rather than a narrative, is in itself traumatic. In placing these oral histories about unique forms of therapy in a public facing setting, I hope to increase the knowledge surrounding the possibility of healing. Welcome to “A Friend is Calling.”

Have you ever felt isolated? With nowhere to turn? Your friend is on the phone. What are you waiting for? Are you going to answer?

This exhibit is a live, in-person event on May 1, 2026 from 6-8 PM in NYC. RSVP and details here.
