Sensorimotor Psychotherapy: Body Oriented Therapy Techniques for Trauma and Attachment
The body’s intelligence is largely an untapped resource in psychotherapy. Few educational programs in psychology or counselling emphasize how to draw on the wisdom of the body to support therapeutic change, leaving therapists mostly dependent on a client’s verbal narrative. Yet the story told by the “somatic narrative”—gesture, posture, prosody, facial expressions, eye gaze, and movement—is arguably more significant than the story told by the words. This talk will elucidate the wisdom of the body and how to tap the body itself to support therapeutic goals.
Program Information
Objectives
- Choose three somatic resources to regulate arousal
- Determine “bottom up processing” to resolve traumatic memory
- Distinguish proximity-seeking actions and how they relate to the client experience
- Integrate embedded relational mindfulness within treatment planning for client sessions

How are Women Socialized Differently, How Does this Show Up in Our Bodies
The socialization of girls and women leaves a profound imprint on our bodies and minds. The legacy of gender socialization strongly influences what we considered to be gender-appropriate beliefs, norms, attitudes and behaviours, leading not only to a higher rate of traumatic stress and other difficulties for girls and women, but also to particular resources and competencies. Drawing on research, cultural differences, client material and personal experience, this presentation will elucidate the complexity of gender socialization for girls and women and offer body-oriented interventions to address it.
Program Information
Objectives
- Determine possible beliefs and physical habits that may result from the socialization of girls and women.
- Apply body-oriented treatment interventions that target the legacy of socialization of girls and women.
- Analyze how gender socialization might affect the movement and posture of men and women differently.
