Therapeutic Support

Ancestral Roots - New Ground

A Somatic Process Group for Immigrant Experiences 

Six months · In person · North Seattle Saturdays · 10 AM – 4 PM Starting January 2026

Group Dates: 

January 24 · February 28 · March 28 · April 25 · May 30 · June 20

Together, we’ll create a space to honor who you are and explore how your unique experiences of migration, resilience, or belonging shape your life today. This group is designed for people who carry multiple worlds within their bodies, those navigating displacement, migration, cultural transition, or the ongoing impact of their family’s lineage.

Through somatic practices, reflection, and shared experience, you’ll have the opportunity to connect deeply with yourself, with others, and with the threads of ancestry and culture that move through us all. Step into a supportive community ready to hold your story, witness your growth, and celebrate the unique path you carry forward.

You are warmly invited if you:

  • Have moved, been uprooted, or displaced from your home of origin
  • Carry intergenerational history of migration, survival, or loss
  • Feel out of place culturally, linguistically, or socially
  • Navigate cultural nuances that differ from your own
  • Have been labeled “foreigner,” “alien,” or “dreamer”
  • Want to understand your feelings and express your authentic voice
  • Struggle to feel belonging

This is an intimate group with limited participants.

My refugee experience from the Bosnian war shaped my personal understanding of trauma's impact on individuals and families. Through training and professional experience, I use trauma-informed somatic work to create compassionate spaces where people can navigate displacement, cultural transitions, and intergenerational healing while discovering wholeness within themselves.
