Somatisation

The focus of the webinar will be to explore how therapists might be able to hear and understand stories without words. For example, what is communicated as a still shoulder, a look away or painful tension in the back? You will consider how silence, rhythms and melodies of movements might tell a story. You will learn to work with fear of exposure and shame which often make somatised stories elusive and finally the nuanced experience of the embodied presence between therapist and client will be explored.

This workshop will be experiential with short exercises, sensitising participants into a greater awareness of their own and client’s embodiment and somatisation tendencies with a particular focus on attachment trauma. You will explore implicit body-to-body-communications and movements to open up embodied stories for further exploration and integration.

Continuing Education (CE) credits for 3 hours are available as part of the course fee. You will need to fill out an evaluation form and pass a multiple choice questionnaire related to the content in order to receive your certificate.
