Many clinicians today believe that true learning and unlearning of behaviors and ways of being cannot take place without involving the body and the full realm of the senses. I am currently an advanced student in Hakomi, an experiential therapy modality (experiential meaning focusing on one’s experience in the moment), and routinely utilize more somatic (body-centered) approaches in the work. These interventions often can unlock material that we otherwise would not have access to.
