Positivism, commercialization and Western colonization have deeply influenced the development of mainstream psychology. Consequently, it overlooks the subjectivity of human beings, ignores the historical, political, and social context of human behaviors, and emphasizes that people need to adapt to the society. This stance is being challenged by critical psychology which emphasizes the grass root practice. Extending the leftist tradition of European critical psychology and American social therapy, this paper explored the indigenous approach of critical psychology in Taiwan embedded in its local practices. Through the analysis of two social implementations of CAFC (Concern Alliance for Filipinos Chinese) and the organization of Exile Tibetan Spouses in Taiwan, we argue that the community-development based critical psychological model is a good exemplar for Taiwan. Challenging the power, while reflexively transforming the actor, the other, and the society, subjectivity and social changes can be facilitated.
