The Healing Embodied Podcast

82. Why good therapy is more like improv than therapy


Listen Later

So many helpers, coaches, therapists, and space-holders were trained to ask:

  • What’s the right thing to say?
  • What intervention do I use next?
  • How do I do this correctly?
  • What if I mess it up?

Which means they end up in their heads instead of in relationship. But effective somatic facilitation asks something different of us.

It asks us to:

  • trust ourselves
  • stay grounded in our bodies
  • attune deeply
  • use what’s happening in the moment
  • co-create with the person in front of us

That’s why Sarah and I created Intro to Somatic Facilitation: a 5-week course designed to help you build the foundational skills of embodied, attuned, creative facilitation.

Inside, we’ll explore:

  • somatic attunement
  • observing and working with the body
  • staying grounded in your own body during session
  • using somatic intelligence in real time
  • allowing sessions to unfold skillfully, rather than forcing them
