Learn to incorporate somatic tools into your therapy practice, and add new depth and control to your work by learning how to sense, track and understand what the body is saying. Applying the latest neuroscience research, you will be able to create strength and safety, tame overwhelming emotion and work with stress and trauma.
There will be an emphasis on building resilience, tracking process rather than content, as well as experiential exercises to practice new interventions.
This course will cover the fundamentals of somatic psychotherapy.
