Laura K Kerr

Welcome to my website. I am the author of Trauma’s Labyrinth: Reflections of a Wounded Healer, recipient of a Living Now Book Award and a Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award, and Dissociation in Late Modern America: Defense Against Soul? I am retired from a career as a mental health scholar (PhD, Stanford University) and time spent as a psychotherapist specialized in sensorimotor psychotherapy (a trauma-focused psychotherapy that addresses the effects of trauma on the body) with interests in imaginal psychology and the work of Carl G. Jung.

I live in San Francisco, CA with my husband. I enjoy traveling, writing, making art, gardening, and supporting local wildlife.

I respectfully acknowledge that I live on the Ancestral lands of the Muwekma Ohlone. I stand in solidarity with all indigenous people. I stand against racism, misogyny, homophobia, and all forms of oppression.

I am done with great things and big plans, great institutions and big successes. I am for those tiny, invisible loving human forces that work from individual to individual, creeping through the crannies of the world like so many rootlets, or like the capillary oozing of water, yet which, if given time, will rend the hardest monuments of human pride.

— William James
