The Impact of Touch in Dance Movement Psychotherapy: A Body-Mind Centering Appro

Description: The Impact of Touch in Dance Movement Psychotherapy by Katy Dymoke A reflexive study of a client case in which touch-based practices were undertaken. Considering the philosophical landscape of both touch and non-touch, it explores and reflects upon the use of touch, and considers the wider context and socially imposed perceptions that would prevent touch from taking place, including social discourses. 5 b/w illus. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description A presentation of clinical outcomes that demonstrate significant new insights into the value of touch to the therapeutic process. In this book, dance movement psychotherapist Katy Dymoke presents an in-depth case study of work with a client with a profound learning disability. The research stems from a postdoctoral thesis sponsored by the United Kingdoms National Health Service, where Dymoke was employed at the time of the clinical outcomes relayed in this work. The volume includes transcripts of the session content; descriptions of how incidents of touch were initiated and undertaken within the process; subsequent categorizations of the incidents of touch as self-directed, passive, or reciprocal; and commentary and discussion of the therapeutic process. As we see, the incidents of touch contribute to the clients process of mental distress, trauma, lack of capacity, and more. Finally, Dymoke includes sections on the ethical issues of this work in the NHS, on doing research with such a client group, and on the theoretical models that emerged. Author Biography Body–Mind Centering programme director and Dance Movement psychotherapist, Katy Dymoke works with children,adults and all abilities in a reciprocal experiential process. In writing about her practice, Katy seeks tosupport others to examine and grow as practitioners. Table of Contents List of figuresPreface and chapter summaryAcknowledgementsAbbreviationsChapter 1.
