Body Liberation Group with facilitator: Amie Anderson, Ms.Ed, MSW

This is a group for anyone looking to reconnect with their body. We welcome queer, trans, and non-binary folks, people with visible and invisible disabilities, trauma survivors, those struggling with addictions, and anyone who has lived with body-based oppression due to skin color, body size, and the expansive variety of intersectional identities.

We seek to connect on common ground while upholding the very real lived experiences of those different from ourselves. This is a facilitated support group with the opportunity to share personal stories, hold space for others, and engage in community healing. Our work will also include experiential exercises that borrow from somatic, gestalt, and art-based practices. We will work to understand the ways in which our internalized narratives are the direct result of systemic oppression, and work toward a radical reframing of our relationship to our own bodies, and bodies in general.
