MOvement as therapy
Tapping into the intelligence and patterns of your body
As a psychotherapist for over 20 years, I am well aware of the fact that talking about places we're stuck, learning where patterns developed, and understanding our challenges does not alone create change. Our body holds a lifetime of information and has learned ways to stay safe, strategies for fitting in, and a template for relationship with everything.
In these 6 week groups, you'll be practicing new ways of being....with ourselves, with others, and in the world. Our gatherings will be focused on experience, not words, and I'll guide and support you to try on and to notice familiar and unfamiliar ways of moving. I'll invite you to bring curiosity and compassion to what shows up....noticing what feels old, that you may not need anymore, as well as identifying new ways of inhabiting your body in a loving way. We'll have times to share thoughts together and discuss what comes up, but this will primarily be an experiential way of working.
These groups will not be a substitute for individual therapy but a helpful addition to the work you're already doing. You'll share your small group with others on the same path....to practice with, to connect with, to witness and be witnessed by. It is my belief that this is another element that can be missed in our individual work....healing in community. We weren't built to do this alone....come find connection, support, and growth by stepping in to one of these circles.
