| Summary |
"One of the things that is so delightful about a session like this is that it can be done in the context of traditional talking psychotherapy ... to bring in body-centered techniques without disturbing a patient who has been used to talking therapy, or disappointing the patient's hopes that we would talk about it, while at the same time reorganizing the story of what happened to become a story of what's possible" Janina Fisher, PhD. In recent years, growing numbers of therapists have found that body-oriented approaches can be highly effective in helping clients to resolve traumatic experiences. This DVD series provides complete demonstration sessions in three body-oriented modalities: Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Somatic Experiencing, and Psycho-Physical Therapy. These programs are designed for clinicians who want to know more about the approaches discussed in our Body-Oriented Trauma Therapy series. Excerpts from these sessions are included in Body-Oriented Trauma Therapy II: Treatment Modalities. Sensorimotor Psychotherapy addresses the somatically-based symptoms of trauma through approaches that "uncouple" the traumatic events from their legacy in the form of intense feelings, bodily responses, and punitive cognitions. Somatic Experiencing is the gradual, resourced discharge of the highly compressed survival energies, accompanied by a "retrospective" completion of biological defensive and orienting responses that were frozen at the time of overwhelm. Psycho-Physical Therapy is the active engagement of the body as central to the psychotherapeutic process. The body is viewed as a primary vehicle for the therapeutic process, where psychological and physical interventions are continuously overlapping. Presenters include Janina Fisher, Peter Levine, and Bill Bowen. |
