I just finished my masters degree in somatics and I think many “alternative” practitioners feel somewhat the way you do Rick. BTW, when I use the phrase alternative it is meant in a positive manner—I do not imply your practice is not in the same league as “regular” therapists and such. I have been fortunate that my grad studies have exposed me to numerous wonderful therapies—Feldenkrais and such. One of the most healing therapies for me—of course not paid for by insurance—was a movement therapy that helped me over come struggles with childhood abuse. I made more progress in a month than I had in a couple years of “regular” therapy. I am a huge fan of alternates to “traditional” insurance bound therapies. Now, how do we tell the world about this?

As a side note, my university just shut down our somatics program due to budget cuts.
