Integrated Psychotherapy

A session Integrated Psychotherapy starts in the here and now. We could start with a bodily sensation, an emotion, or with a gesture of your hand while speaking about an expierence, for instance. Exploring this way, you may get a new entrance to what’s going on in you.

Your power and liveliness are being payed as much attention to as the hard stuff for they are your ground for change. Meanwhile, you’ll become more capable to guide your attention to both your nice and not-nice sensations and feelings and get acquinted to different sides of yourself.
Gaandeweg oefen je je aandacht te richten op de prettige en onprettige emoties en sensaties in je lichaam en groeit je vermogen om verschillende kanten van jezelf te kennen.

All your energy – of grief, rage, joy – may join the session. However often, this energy is blocked anywhere in the body. That’s why I use different working methods that could make it move again: Bio-energetics, body-drama, breaving. We pay attention to the inner critical comments popping up during that proces. Bio-energetica, Bodydrama en Ademwerk verkennen we hoe die energie weer gaat stromen. De kritische stem die daarbij vaak de kop opsteekt, nemen we onder de loep.

Together, it’s more easy to contain awkward feelings and emotions of pain and grief. Integrated Psychotherapy offers you a space to feel. You may find out that that’s less threatening than you thought before. Maybe, you’ll find your strenght in the place you ran away from..

In the contact between you and me you may explore about your patterns of relating and you’re allowed to practive new ways of doing. I support you doing that. In themes like:

/ Getting more at ease in social situations / Finding out what supports you and asking for it / Learning to have yourself supported / Giving more space to your personal qualities / Dealing with making mistakes

Engaging your body, you’ll experience and learn in a more grounded way. More liveliness and more relaxation are always part of the result. The rhytm of doing, feeling and reflecting on what’s going on led to the name of my practice: body and talk.
