Trauma & The Body with Dr. Susana Kugear...

MONIQUE KOVEN
About this episode

Today I’m joined with clinical psychologist and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner Dr. Susana Kugeares. We talked about somatic experiencing and how trauma patterns develop in the body and why when you are working with trauma and the body it’s important to go slowly with awareness as opposed to wanting to rush through the healing work. You can find Dr. Kugeares on Psychology Today and LinkedIn.https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists/susana-kugeares-austin-tx/862681
