Safe + sound Protocol mentorship circles
A monthly mentorship group for ssp providers to deepen somatic awareness, nervous system attunement, and therapeutic effectiveness
Structure + Overview:
During each monthly circle we gather for teaching, experiential practice, and case consultations with collaborative Q & A and discussion. To keep these groups intimate and in-depth, there are a maximum of 8 spots available.
Please come prepared for personal reflection and exploration, as well as enlivening and curious conversation.
Mentorship circles are affirming of neurodivergence (not about curing or fixing), and bring a systemic/ cultural and historical lens to understanding the nervous system and embodiment.
Reduced rates are available for BIPOC practitioners. Please email assistant @ wildbody.ca to inquire.

About marika
I’m a Registered Somatic Movement Therapist/ Educator, bodyworker, former psychotherapist, and a writer/ researcher with an endless curiosity about how history lives on in our bodies.
I facilitate small groups that integrate the SSP with attachment-oriented movement and Relational Somatics.
My practice is queer + trans centred, and I hold a commitment to disability and racial justice in all of my offerings. I am happy to talk more about what this means to me.
