Cyndi Koonse will be presenting to us about cultural competency and noticing our own biases. Cyndi has her MSW from University of Missouri and has specialty training in the body-centered somatic psychotherapy HAKOMI methods, along with HAKOMI’s specific state of being, Loving Presence Training. One thing to note about Cyndi is she is a Mediator for Boone and Callaway Counties, 13th Circuit Court (Family Mediation Services, Parent-Child, Divorce & Child Custody, Victim – Offender Mediation Services and Parenting Programs). Because of her background with somatic psychotherapy there will be some self-care added into this presentation.
