Somatic Psychology At Its Best: Conversations to Inspire

Over the past two decades of practicing and teaching somatic psychotherapy, I've had the pleasure and privilege of working with and learning from some of the most innovative minds in our field. What I've discovered is that by integrating diverse approaches, we can often achieve breakthroughs that seemed out of reach before.

Sometimes, you just need to help the client understand the technique better. But other times, no matter how hard you try, the technique may not be a great fit for that client.
Fortunately, Somatic Psychology is a rich, complicated field with many embodiments that resonate with different bodies. It’s growing faster than it ever has, which means that there are more ways to help our diverse clients than there have ever been.

That’s why I've spent months having in-depth conversations with some of the most innovative leaders in our field. There are so many people doing incredible work—the new and the brightest in the field should have an opportunity to share their experiences, the depths of their insights, and their work.

To that end, I’ve compiled some of these conversations into a course that will inspire you to approach your sessions and your clients in new ways–and expand on how you show up for them.

You’ll gain insights into the latest developments in somatic psychology and learn techniques that can dramatically impact your effectiveness as a therapist. You’ll be equipped to achieve better outcomes and greater satisfaction for both you and your clients.

Relational Rupture & Repair Work: A Somatic-Developmental Approach

If you work with COUPLES, FAMILIES, in RELATIONAL psychodynamic work or ATTACHMENT oriented bodywork this somatic workshop is designed especially for YOU. The session will have a brief introduction of the core concepts of Relational Rupture and Repair Work, developed by SE faculty Dave Berger and Abi Blakeslee. The next part of the session will be an interactive demonstration where a conference participant will present a couple or dyad they are working with. They will role play one of the dyad and choose another person from the audience to role play the other. Abi and Dave will demonstrate the work and deconstruct interventions based on the model.

CBT, DBT & EMDR Strategies to Free Clients from Toxic Relationships

Without your help, clients can rarely navigate the road to healing from gaslighting, codependency, torn attachment, narcissistic abuse, and the grief toxic relationships cause.

While you might easily recognize the signs that a client's sense of self is shattered...

Many therapists don't have dynamic and specific tools to help their clients overcome the debilitating damage of these relationships.

Sharpen your healing skills with easy-to-integrate interventions from the most in-demand approaches, like CBT, DBT & EMDR, to empower your clients to move their lives forward.

My training, Bringing the Body into Therapy: Clinical Tools from Relationship Repair and Somatic Experiencing, is one of the bonus offers to this training!

Integrative Somatic Psychotherapy Master Class

Over the past several years, our field's leading trauma experts have shown us how crucial it is for clinicians to work through the body to achieve full trauma relief.

But for many therapists, somatic therapy can seem baffling, requiring us to be able to track nearly unnoticeable shifts in posture, physiology, and micromovements — both in our clients' bodies and our own.

Renowned trauma healer and trainer Abi Blakeslee has spent her career honing the key somatic skills that lead to deep relief and repair. Mentored by Peter Levine and trained in the field's most widely used body-based approaches (including Somatic Experiencing®, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Hakomi, Integral Somatic Psychology, and Polyvagal-Informed Therapy)...

...she's developed an integrative approach that combines the most effective somatic interventions into a framework that any therapist can learn and apply in practice.

Now in this unique Master Class, you can join Abi in the therapy room and experience somatic healing in action with real trauma clients. Earn up to 16.5 CE Hours!

I’ve watched about 4 hours of the Attachment module, am loving the depth of learning I am getting such as how to work somatically with the alarm system in the body that’s not shock trauma-related. Very much worth the time and money!
— BD - NARM Master Practitioner, SEP, TEB, SRR, ISP
To have Abi guiding you, in meticulous detail, in this Step by Step program is a priceless gift to any practitioner that is either a seasoned practitioner or someone beginning to become curious about including the body in clinical practice.

Abi draws from her experience and masterful expertise that spans over two decades showing her precise artfulness as a Somatic therapist. We see Abi working with clients using her skills to elicit deep and impactful psychological and physiological shifts and changes. She breaks down for the viewer the steps she takes to elicit these shifts with simplicity, clarity and elegance. I was able to include and incorporate what I learnt from this Step by Step program immediately into my clinical practice with my clients, facilitating powerful changes and reorganization from within.

It is one of the most clinically useful courses I have done. I highly recommend this course to anyone interested in somatic oriented work for themselves and or in professional practice.
