a powerful blend of somatic practice,
private practice-building strategy,
and collective practitioner support.
Blue ghosts
a resourcing space
for radical healers & therapists
we give so much. our work is deeply political and visionary.
we support our clients in setting boundaries, aligning their actions with their politics, and healing intergenerational patterns.
but we can come to our sessions from a depleted place, especially in this political moment of heart-shattering disregard for human life and the dignity of our planet.
but somehow we keep showing up. even as we might question if we can keep going in this work…or at all.
in this volatile present and frighteningly uncertain future, all we have is each other.
so this space is for us.
vision. strategy. practice. healing. support. community.
we’ve got you. we’ve got us.
blue ghosts are a rare appalachian firefly that stays close to the forest floor and emits a long blue-green light to find other fireflies.

on zoom but we will *not* be staring at the screen. we will be intentionally doing something very different. be in embodied practice in a relational space: move, lay down, rest your eyes, drink gay beverages, bring your furry friends, and eat snacks.

you hold so much for so many. let us hold you.
gather with other practitioners invested in our own healing paths, sustainable care for our communities, and liberation for all. we will vision, we will build power, and we will gain skills to share our work with the people who need it most. together we will innovate how we connect with ideal clients so we can show up resourced— emotionally and financially.
this series is a generative Somatics practice development series for femme, trans, nonbinary, and queer licensed or associate therapists & healing practitioners who have been working with clients for at least 2 years and are working towards or building their own practice.

we will use group and dyadic generative Somatics practice to clarify our vision, boundaries, ideal clients, steady referral streams, and daily practices to create and sustain a resourced, inspiring self-employed community-based practice.
we will gently address any underlying issues of safety, connection, or belonging that may be contributing to challenges in moving forward with authenticity and confidence towards your dream practice. You will leave each week’s group with optional yet encouraged practices to create your vision into a reality.

commune with other progressive practitioners who believe in believe in mental health care for all…and insist on coming up with creative ways to keep serving our people without depleting ourselves.
we will relate deeply, practice intentionally, and find our way in all the questions we are living in our work in this political moment of ongoing genocides, rising fascism, state repression, climate catastrophe, attacks on bodily autonomy, and anti-trans legislation.

we do not just need boundaries with work.
we need to deeply heal our sense of over-responsibility from developmental and institutional trauma so we can make right-sized offers and sustain ourselves while fighting for real structural change.
we don’t need to do ‘marketing.’
we need to be responsive to who we truly are and what we have to offer. we need to clearly name our powerful offer by healing shame and hiding less so the people that need us can find us.
we need to find more safety and support together to reveal our love for our communities and longing for justice.
we don’t need to ‘network.’
we need cross-pollination among other healer-organizers and visionaries. we need to deeply know and support each other.
we need to build power together to serve our communities and have enough energy to live and organize.
we need each other. now more than ever.
apply here! applications due August 15th.
