OUR SERVICES
COACHING
Whether you are an individual or a team we’ve got you covered. We have experience supporting leaders and change makers in actualizing personal and collective aspirations. We use equity frameworks and coaching approaches to support you in working from the inside out to channel personal agency as you move within complex systems. Coaching services also incorporate politicized body practices to support individuals in moving towards embodied action.
GROUP PRACTICE
Are you trying to survive toxic social systems rooted in supremacy and dominance? Are dominant culture approaches to wellness not serving you? You're not alone! We facilitate group sessions, circles, and gatherings for practitioners in service of creating the critical connections necessary to re-shape the collective body towards new futures. Our events and programming are in service of creating accessible spaces where people practice freedom now. We host spaces that are focused on love, healing and transformation. We prioritize the perspectives of the QTI + BIPOC + disabled communities.
See offerings page for more information on upcoming workshops.
BODYWORK
Somatic bodywork is a technique that includes touch, breath work, rocking and stretching. It brings attention to the places the body holds constrictions due to stress or trauma (lived & inherited). Bodywork involves contact with the soma (self) and with the life force energy that moves through us. The experience can bring attention to sensation, and move energy so that individuals can open to new possibilities.
CONSULTATION
We have extensive experience leading communities of practice and holding training series for small and large groups. We leverage experiential learning and emergent facilitation principles in how we design sessions with careful attention to both product (what people will do) and process (how people feel). We will work with you to develop and facilitate a tailored scope of work that will suit your specialized needs.
Common Requests: Designing Towards Cultures of Care, Design for Belonging, Embodying Liberatory Mindsets, Reconnecting to Vision & Purpose.
PAST WORK - CONSULTATION
Bonita House - Community Assessment & Transport Team (CATT)
The first of its kind in Alameda County, the Community Assessment and Transport Team (CATT) Program was developed in collaboration with Alameda County Behavioral Health Services, Alameda County Emergency Medical Services, Falck Ambulance Company and Bonita House, to provide assessment, crisis management, transportation and referral as appropriate to individuals presenting behavioral emergencies in the community
How might we deepen our understanding and felt sense of cultural humility in order to decrease bias and move intentionally while under the pressure of working in emergency services?
Seneca Family of Agencies - Unconditional Education
Unconditional Education (UE) is a whole-school model that seeks to disrupt the cycle of poor achievement and exclusion by transforming schools into communities in which all students are welcomed and can thrive. UE is a holistic, multi-tiered system of supports (MTSS) that pairs evidence-based academic, behavioral, and social-emotional interventions with an intentional focus on overall school culture and climate. The model promotes systematic coordination and integration of funding and services, which increase the efficient allocation of available resources so that gaps are identified and redundancies eliminated.
How might we explore embodied practices as clinicians so that we in practice and have a felt understanding of the modalities we hope to use with our clients?
The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence - San Francisco
The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence® are a leading-edge Order of queer and trans nuns. They believe all people have a right to express their unique joy and beauty. Since their first appearance in San Francisco on Easter Sunday, 1979, the Sisters have devoted themselves to community service, ministry and outreach to those on the edges, and to promoting human rights, respect for diversity and spiritual enlightenment. They use humor and irreverent wit to expose the forces of bigotry, complacency and guilt that chain the human spirit.
How might we build and deepen relational trust across differences within active membership so that the order and community offerings reflect the diversity of the communities we serve?
