The first four sessions will focus on creating a sense of felt safety and encourage folx to utilize ideas shared to strengthen this sense. From there, we move into seeing and learning about our flee, fight, freeze experiences. The base of felt safety will help participants move with these reactions in healthful and life-giving ways. </p><p>Amy Stenger-Sullivan, LPCC-S has over 28 years of experience in bodywork, therapy and teaching. She is a lead trainer for Deb Dana who translated the Polyvagal Theory for use in therapy. Amy is a Writing Facilitator, trained through Women Writing for a Change and a SoulCollage  Facilitator. Amy works from a biology-based approach to healing - with the understanding that feelings are expressed first through the nervous system and then are processed in the brain. Her style is compassionate, empathetic, direct, and infused with humor.</p><h3>Covid Considerations: Masks are currently optional at the Hive. Individuals may choose to wear a mask for personal protection, and as always, we ask anyone who is feeling sick or has a high temperature to not attend until they are recovered.
