This workshop offers the opportunity to explore an innovative body psychotherapy
modality. It is also a good taster for the Embodied- Relational Therapy Training.
ERT is an holistic integrative approach focusing on two facts about human beings:
we are embodied and in relationship. To be alive we need to be a body, to be alive
we need to relate to others; our greatest challenges and our greatest joys follow

| March 2016-January 2017 Derbyshire, Lancashire and London Wild Therapy: Bringing therapy into the wild, and wildness into therapy One year course Nick Totton and Allison Priestman £1850 payable in instalments download flyer here | An
exploration and celebration of therapy's wildness: its capacity to
transcend the limitations we place on our creativity and connectedness. Working outdoors in comparatively undomesticated settings encourages us to bring the other-than-human and more-than-human – animals, birds, plants, trees, hills, rivers, winds, dreams, ghosts, spirits – into the therapeutic process. Spending time ‘in nature’, as we say, can help us appreciate that we are never anywhere else, always inhabiting and encountering our own nature. Wild Therapy supports the spontaneous and the unknown, trusting what arises of its own accord. It celebrates embodiment as a central aspect of our existence, moving back and forth between the training room and the spacious, elemental vessel of earth and sky, inviting us to transform fear-based, defensive practice into contact-based, adventurous practice: enriching both our therapy work, and life on earth. This year course gives you the opportunity to work with and learn from wildness as it manifests in the client-therapist relationship. Three residential workshops in increasingly wild settings, and a final weekend in the city. |
