mind body psychotherapy with powerful healing potential

Integrative Yoga Psychotherapy is psychotherapy

Integrative Yoga Psychotherapy is at the frontier of East-West, body-mind process.

Increasingly psychotherapists recognise the link between body and mind and utilise Eastern practices such as mindfulness and breath work to support the therapeutic process.

Equally, the field of psychotherapy increasingly recognises that ‘the body keeps the score’ - that our life, childhood, traumas, physical and mental health, emotional patterns and unprocessed material accumulate within our physical being and impact how we are in ourselves and how we meet the world.

 

Why Yoga?

Yoga has never separated the body from the mind. Yoga psychotherapy is a mind body therapy - meaning that the body helps generate insight, shift and process. Equally, the cognitive mind benefits from ‘going within’ and exploring what our bodies have to tell us.

One appointment lasts between 60-75 minutes and involves talk therapy with some generative use of yogic tools to explore material as it arises.
