The relationship matters — not just what your supervisor knows, but how they work with you, what they prioritize, and
The Queer Body Remembers: Somatic-Focused Trauma Healing
For many LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer/questioning) people growing up was distressing due to homophobia and transphobia.
