Dr Betty Martin

Betty begins our interview with the powerful statement: “there’s no such thing as safety.”, and in our conversation, goes into depth around the unmistakable importance of consent.

Maira Holzmann

Maira is a somatically trained psychotherapist devoted to healing trauma and attachment wounding. As we know, the more regulated and integrated we are as care providers, the easier it is to create a caring and safe enough space for others. Maira and Shelby co-facilitate a guided regulation practice with information about the nervous system and how to continue an embodied sense of safety for you as a facilitator AND the people you support.

Bev Martin

Giselle Jones (LCSW, CMF, CSAT-C)

Giselle shares how to support folks from a variety of backgrounds genuinely feel more safe in our spaces. We explore the HOW of creating "Safe Enough Space" including Consent, Social Conditioning, Inclusivity, Sex and Sexuality, Privilege, Cultural Humility and Compassion.

Judith Sadora (M.A., LMFT Oregon & Nevada)

Judith shares about intergenerational trauma, cultural humility, and looking through a systems lens while welcoming folks from marginalized populations - especially the Black communities.
