Somatic Psychotherapy, Experiential Therapy, and Embodied Healing

When I first began watching Andor, I didn’t expect to see myself mirrored in a science fiction series. But there it was: the grief of fractured relationships, the loneliness of exile, the ache of being “too much” for some spaces and not enough for others. 

Between Laura Hoge, LCSW, LICSW, RSW and me, we’ve spent nearly two decades providing gender-affirming and LGBTQ-affirming care. We are both deeply rooted in queer community.

We came to Sensorimotor Psychotherapy® (SP) — developed by Dr. Pat Ogden and the Sensorimotor Psychotherapy Institute (SPI) — the way we’ve come to much of our work: together.
