Description
Drawing from recent theoretical and clinical developments in body-oriented psychotherapy and dance/movement therapy, this course explores the psychological, creative and spiritual dimensions of the body and how it is central to contemporary developments in psychological thinking and approaches to healing. We explore how movement and the body are connected with fundamental aspects of psychological awareness and how this impacts upon our emotional, social, creative and spiritual lives. We examine how current body-oriented approaches to psychology inform our understanding of growth and development, education, psychological diagnosis and treatment in areas such as trauma, body-image, eating disorders, depression, anxiety, and developmental delays.
