Embodied ACT: Integrating Body Awareness Into ACT Practice

Joni Altshuler and Teresa Valliere are holding a 2-day experiential workshop, Embodied ACT: Integrating body awareness into Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Practice, in Portland, Maine on February 25-26.  From the description, “Drawing from interpersonal neurobiology, attachment theories and body-centered psychotherapies, this workshop will introduce the underlying premise that somatic responses represent and often collude with the long standing cognitive and emotional experiences clients seek to escape.” Participants will learn to, “assist the clients in a method of mindful self-study that notices how their whole body organizes experiences.”
