What is biomimicry and how does it apply to healing?

Today we continue our mini series speaking with mental health professionals such as therapists, somatic educators, social workers, and other professional caregivers. Our guest today is Gabes Torres— a psychotherapist, organizer, and artist! In this episode of the Moonbeaming Podcast, host Sarah Faith Gottesdiener and guest Gabe Torres talk about time as a living thing, practicing sustainability in therapy work, and shifting from ANTI-isms to building and creating change. In this special episode, you’ll hear about:

  • The concept and realization of home and how to create it
  • Biomimicry and how we can apply it
  • Learnings from relationship
  • Healing abandonment wounds

If you’re curious about how to apply biomimicry in your life or if you’re burnt out from therapy work or social work, this episode is for you.

About Gabes Torres: Gabes Torres is a psychotherapist, organizer, and artist with her work focusing on the interplay of mental health, the arts, spirituality, and justice oriented practice. She has an M. A. In Theology and Culture and Counseling Psychology, both graduate degrees were accomplished in Seattle, the city where she organized with abolitionist and anti imperialist groups at a local grassroots level. In her clinical practice, Gabes pays attention to healing from racial and migration trauma while decolonizing the therapeutic space from white western modalities.
