Dance/Movement Therapy: Authentic Movement

Dance/Movement Therapy: Authentic Movement

"The body is the home of feeling; the house of memory. To heal, we need access to it." ~ Tina Stromsted, Ph.D., MFT, LPCC, BC-DMT In this ADTA Talk, Tina Stromsted shares how "Authentic Movement helps us recover forgotten, denigrated and repressed aspects of the self [that] remain buried until conditions are nurturing enough to allow them to surface and grow." Stromsted eloquently describes the process of Authentic Movement, the relationship between mover and witness, and how Authentic Movement is used clinically in dance/movement therapy.
