Embodied-Relational Therapy


ERT is an initiative in therapy and healing based in the UK, started by Nick Totton from work developed with Em Edmondson, and now carried forwards by Nick together with Allison Priestman. The style is process centred and incarnation centred, approaching human beings as united bodymindspirit, perfect with a few local difficulties. Our nature seeks to express itself freely, while at the same time protecting itself in conditions often of great difficulty. This double task of expression and protection makes us subject to contradictory pulls, and offering double messages about what we feel, want and need. Through a relationship which is supportive and non-invasive, it is possible to disentangle our doubleness and allow our process to unfold - which is what has been trying to happen all along.

State Regulation of Psychotherapy and Counselling

NEW STATEMENT ON STATE REGULATION - sign up here

       
We the undersigned psychotherapists and counsellors doubt that the proposed state regulation of psychotherapy and counselling in the UK will be of benefit either to the public or to the profession, and are concerned that it will in fact be harmful; we do not wish to be regulated in this way, and and call upon the Government and the leadership of our professions to halt the process and think again.
