Most therapists already know that a client's "unspoken" communication--tone, pace, expression, gesture, and posture--can convey as much important information as words. But therapists increasingly realize that to be effective they must also treat the somatic aspects of clients--address the way their emotions and feelings manifest in their bodies--to do good therapy. With the variety of somatic modalities and theories available, the question becomes, what kind of body-based psychotherapy should they use for what sort of problem? In this workshop, we'll review the common foundation for all body psychotherapies and then discuss the somatic techniques that work better with specific issues, including trauma, developmental deficits, defensive structures, and relational issues. We'll also try out exercises that give a taste of how somatic therapies can influence different problems.
