Healing Happens in Relationship

One of my early teachers, the wise Bonnie Badenoch, first taught me that we are constantly searching for the conditions of safety and when we find them, healing simply happens. Years later another of Bonnie’s students, Jules Taylor Shore, taught me a different version of this birthright wisdom: when compassion is present, the brain can’t help but heal.

This has been the foundation of my work in therapy and in consultation, knowing that we have an innate wisdom and a deep capacity for healing and transformation. As a trauma worker, I help clients learn to listen to the wisdom of their bodies out of a deep believe that our wise body ecosystems know the exact right way to heal. This is another way of knowing and practicing: our parts are not in the way, our parts are the way.

As someone who mentors and supervises and consults with many clinicians, I occasionally record demonstrations of my work for the purposes of teaching about theraputic interventions and liberatory healing. These sessions are 60-90 minutes and are free to folx who want to participate. You are welcome to bring bring a piece of work you would like to explore to this demonstration session with me.

There is no cost or money exchange to participate, however I do ask that folx sign a release to allow the recording of the work to be shown in teaching. Because this is a demonstration and is not therapy, I am able to offer demonstrations to folx around the world. Please reach out if you want to participate.

horizon greene, LICSW/LCSW (she/her). Animist, witch, abolitionist, ecofeminist, trauma healer, wordcrafter, initiate, liberationist. These are some of my many names. 

I am a queer fat femme who practices at the intersections of oppression, grief, trauma and liberation. I believe that love is our most powerful magic and that healing happens in relationship. I believe healing and liberation are our birthright.

I have spent more than 22 years in a deep study of how healing happens, learning to undo oppression while learning to co-create cultures of justice and belonging. My training has included intensive learnings in somatics, trauma healing, anti-oppressive practices, anti-racism, liberatory culture building, ritual and witchcraft. My therapy practice is a blending of liberatory healing practices rooted in the relational neurosciences, somatic wisdom, parts work, ancestral healing, magic and love. I accompany people in the deep work of making real what our souls know is possible.

My ancestors of bone and blood are those of Jewish-Polish, Jewish-Russian and Jewish-German descent. I identify as a white person with settler colonial privileges, and also come from Jewish people, folx whose body memories tell the story of grief and loss and whose prayers feed a commitment of Never Again for all of us. I am dedicated to the lifetime work of unlearning whiteness while feeling for healing in my own body and cultivating relationships with my ancestors. I strive to heal in my own body what my ancestors could not heal in theirs.

I am an EMDR Certified Therapist, an EMDR Consultant In Training (CIT) and an IFS Trained Therapist (Level 1). I completed a 9 month intensive in Somatic Abolitionism for Therapists with Education for Racial Equity and am currently working toward Body Trust & IFS Certifications.

horizon is a complex trauma specialist and a somatic abolitionist, dedicated to the lifetime work of trauma healing and liberatory culture building. She also offers liberation-rooted supervision and consultation for justice-aligned therapists & healers.
