Wege zu den leiborientierten Therapien. (Approaches to body-oriented therapies.)

Journal/Book: Praxis der Psychotherapie und Psychosomatik. 1991; 36: 58-67.

Abstract: Discusses body-oriented psychotherapy, which includes autogenic training, bioenergetics, hypnosis, movement therapy, gestalt therapy, psychodrama, dance, music, and visual arts therapies. Awareness, movement, thinking, and speech are interrelated and this leads to the integration of traditional and body-oriented psychotherapies. The therapist's own experiences and defenses against such experience as well as fear of contact must be considered. Suggestions are made for judging a patient's suitability and preparation for body-oriented therapy and coordinating treatments with specially trained therapists. Training in the application of these therapies can take place at conferences, training institutions, hospitals, and in private practice. Professional regulations play a role in the use of these techniques. (English abstract) (0 ref)
