Body Psychotherapy for the 21st Century ebook

Body psychotherapy currently attracts more interest than ever before and is taking up an important role in the general psychotherapy field, bringing awareness of embodiment into what has been a verbally oriented profession. It is also developing into a sophisticated approach which engages with recent advances in other disciplines including neuroscience, phenomenology, and cognitive studies, as well as the relational turn in psychotherapy. Body Psychotherapy for the 21st Century uses a historical survey to chart this transformation, and shows how four distinct versions of embodied practice have interacted to generate the current field.
