Founder and sole practitioner, Skunk Bouchard, is the heart and mind behind Wild Embrace: Integrated Relational Deepening. Living just to the left of convention and at the intersection of complicated identities, Skunk finds deep truth and insight in the nooks and crannies of individual experiences and the liminal spaces where the magic of our stories weave together to become one. With interests and experience vast and varied, Skunk is whim-driven and shows up wherever happens to be calling.
