Atlantic Canada Society For Bioenergetic Analysis
Over the years, we have found that Bioenergetic therapy has
a unique appeal to professional psychotherapists, whether
or not they practice mind-body therapy with their own clients!
As a personal therapy for professional therapists,
bioenergetics offers an opportunity to explore on a body level,
issues that verbal therapy may not have reached or resolved.
The bioenergetic therapist possesses in their use of body-related
techniques, a second language with which to communicate with their
clients. This second language often speaks to preverbal experiences
that haven't been reached by traditional verbal therapies.
When therapists deal effectively with these personal issues in
therapy, they are better equipped to identify and work with
these issues with their clients.
Personal bioenergetic therapy prepares the therapist to move
into deeper clinical work, to understand how their own issues
(countertransference) interact with the client and to more clearly
identify and use the client's transference as a tool rather than
a resistance. The increased ability to work with deeper clinical
issues is a benefit of completing one's own therapy.
