The integration of body and psyche in therapy

‘Psychotherapy with the body’ is an expression that sounds paradoxical. Other terms - such as ‘body-based’ or ‘body-mediated’ - may perhaps mitigate the paradox, but not eliminate it. Treating the body and treating with the psyche are, in our culture, two at first sight irreconcilable modalities.

Abstract

‘Psychotherapy with the body’ is an expression that sounds paradoxical. Other terms - such as ‘body-based’ or ‘body-mediated’ - may perhaps mitigate the paradox, but not eliminate it. Treating the body and treating with the psyche are, in our culture, two at first sight irreconcilable modalities.
