Interview with Liz Zhou on Nervous System Care & Healing
Being Yourself is an Act of Liberation
In liberation counseling, we see mental health as a social, political, & economic issue, not just an individual issue. After all, we can’t talk about healing & nervous system regulation, without also acknowledging the conditions that create so much dysregulation in the first place. Join Liz & Dr. Nicole Xenos in an insightful conversation on what liberation can look like - in the nervous system, in the counseling room, & beyond.

Mentioned as Advisor in The Awakened Therapist: Spirituality, Consciousness, and Subtle Energy in Gestalt Therapy by Harmony Kwiker
The Awakened Therapist is an accessible introduction to gestalt therapy through the lens of transpersonal counseling, one that offers a clear and profound account of how to bridge the gap between traditional counseling and spiritual transformation.
Bringing new depths to the art of therapy, Harmony Kwiker provides a map for therapists to dismantle the old paradigm of therapist-as-expert and honor their clients’ innate wisdom. The chapters seamlessly weave together elusive concepts of levels of awareness, subtle energy, and spiritual alignment with psychological concepts that are embedded in the theory and application of gestalt therapy.
After reading this book, therapists will be inspired and energized while having more substantial breakthroughs with their clients.
