JENNIFER

This program changed my life, my perspective, my understanding and the scope and depth of the work being done in the somatic trauma work field. I am so incredibly grateful to have studied with some of the most skillful, kind, knowledgeable and diverse human beings. I feel eternally blessed.

DENISE

As an African American woman who has had a great deal of educational experiences on the graduate level, I can say that there haven't been many programs like this one that gave voice and recognition to the BIPOC experience. This in and of itself was healing in many ways. I felt each of the presenters and facilitators to be authentic and caring. I am truly glad to have had this experience.

MONIKA
