Body Process Psychotherapy

Whilst counselling and psychotherapy can be "talking" therapies, body psychotherapy works more with your body. Therefore really working with a person's whole being. For me it's about what is really going on within me as opposed to what I think is going on for me.

Talk to anyone involved in Body Therapy, e.g. those who have received it, and the practitioners and you cannot fail to see their excitement and passion for something that is so special.

Body Work can offer a truly effective treatment, especially clients that feel and are 'stuck' and those with deeply buried issues.

Body Therapy is a method of helping men and women keep their lives in balance by means of listening to their bodies and staying grounded.

There are times when we lose our sense of self. Times when our head and body do not seem to be in connected and our head is constantly chattering unhelpful advice! We end up wondering who is the 'real' me, and desperately seeking some "thing" to fill the gap.

Through body-therapy we re-connect with our bodies, our sense of balance and our core, by working in an active way with the questions "who am I in relation to self?" and "what is my core?"
We do this by exploring the development of body shape and structure and how we use our bodies as a means of defending and armouring our inner selves.

This is always done in practical, hands on way, underpinned afterwards by formal theoretical inputs and experiential movement and breath work. The practical work can be at times painful, mind blowing, revealing and even joyful but always held and supported with experience and compassion.

Talk to anyone involved in Body Therapy, e.g. those who have received it, and the practitioners and you cannot fail to see their excitement and passion for something that is so special and greatly increases the possibility for fast, effective healing.
