Raymond Rodriguez has the most beautifully soothing voice, loves his talk!
I would prefer to Listen to your wonderful teachers in their Language English
Listening to Licia and Bessel is empowering. I had the opportunity to see them in person and to participate in one of Licia’s workshops. They have a huge repertoire of knowledge and wisdom to help people understand how to heal trauma.
Thank you so much Bessrl and Licua for the knowledge, insights and advice, particularly regarding the therapeutic relationship. Lucia- your somatic offerings for practice were excellent as were your remarks on developmental trauma and it’s ambivalence on trusting the therapist and Self.
I am concerned about access to therapy given the high cost of many providers. I would love to hear solutions for this
Absolutely fantastic! Thank you so much
