Our bodies are a sea change of movement, and this movement is a map that reflects our past and can guide emergent possibility.
This 15-hour alternate route approved course provides a theoretical, neuro-physiological, contemplative introduction to the use of dance movement therapy with survivors of trauma, and as a practice of self compassion and self respect for therapists. The emphasis of this class is client-therapist co-regulation as both a self-care and a clinical skill that supports DMT’s ability to support clients through their own restorative process. Drawing from an embodied, contemplative human rights framework (Polyvagal-informed Dance/Movement Therapy©), empowerment and developing a reciprocal alliance are primary themes of this course. This equally experiential and theoretical class also provides participants with a practical and applicable introduction and overview to using DMT in work with survivors of trauma, as well as for therapists own resilience and well-being. The course teaches DMT practices to support safety and stability in the reciprocal therapeutic relationship. A contemporary phasic approach to working with complex trauma provides the foundation for course material.
