Susan L HerrmannSusan L. Herrmann, PhD, LICSW brings over three decades of experience dismantling systems that fragment relationships and limit human potential. As a practicing therapist, she specializes in trauma, grief, and the challenges of living authentically wthin oppressive systems, helping people reclaim their sovereignty and restore kinship with their intuitive wisdom.For over twelve years, Susan directed a global service-learning program in Vietnam supporting Agent Orange-affected communities, where she witnessed how Western-centric models often miss the mark across cultural contexts. Her approach to teaching and facilitation is holistic and unflinchingly direct-she asks questions others avoid, creating fiercely compassionate spaces where participants examine not just what they're learning, but whose knowledge systems are privileged and whose voices are missing.Known as a "Licensed Clinical Miracle Worker," Susan is commended by students, clients, and colleagues for showing the way to bridging the gap between stated values and actual practice. Of approximately four hundred clients she has worked with using the framework in this book, only two have declined to continue. Read More Read Less
