• Somatic Re-Storying Retreat: A retreat for 2SLGBTQTA + Folks

  • Start
    23 Jul 2026
  • End
    26 Jul 2026
  • Location
    WI

  This Somatic Re-Storying retreat will be a highly experiential, narrative-changing healing space where we address our family- and culture-of-origin wounds in a small group environment with other 2SLGBTQIA+ folx. During our time together we will engage in somatic and embodiment exercises to prepare our bodies, hearts and nervous systems to engage in  Structures, a powerful modality for healing and transforming the wounds and stories we carry.  Structures are born out of Pesso Boyden System Psychomotor (PBSP) and I continue to evolve this work as I have spent years studying and practicing with Bessel van der Kolk, Licia Sky, Gus Kaufman and Jim Amundsen. I often incorporate parts work, a variety of somatic practices and other modalities to allow the Structures work to be increasingly expansive to meet the needs of individuals and groups, and to tend to cultural uniqueness.
  
  This practice is a highly collaborative, deeply experiential, profoundly transformative and innovative approach to healing relationship patterns and embodied narratives that no longer serve us.
  
  In this workshop we will recreate in three dimensional space a representation of something we would like to heal. We do this in order to step into the deep longings and hidden wounds of our inner child/ren and then re-imagine new possibilities that become somatically imprinted with the help of group members and a highly experienced facilitator.
