Pat Ogden, PhD, is our guest to explain sensorimotor psychotherapy.  She tells her story of learning about trauma work, and the recognition of the body as an ally in healing.  She explains how somatic resources help stabilize the nervous system.  Trigger warning for the example of thinking about how your body feels when your remember being abused (a father specifically is used in the example, but no abuse story is detailed at all).  She explains how safe touch can be so healing, and how being mindful of our bodies not only can help us stay present, but also help us function differently in now-time.
