About this listen
In this step-by-step guide to experiential approaches to somatic therapy, Dr. Richard Nongard bridges the gap between traditional psychotherapy, coaching, hypnotherapy, and body-based healing, offering therapists a comprehensive framework for incorporating somatic approaches into their practice. With real-world case studies, word-for-word scripts, practical exercises, and evidence-based techniques, this book provides a roadmap for creating profound therapeutic change.
- Master the innovative BALMS framework: Breathwork, Awareness, Loosening movement, Manual touch, and Somatic cognitive integration.
- Learn step-by-step protocols and comprehensive scripts for implementing somatic techniques in hypnotherapy, counseling, therapy, and coaching.
- Discover how to integrate cognitive approaches with body-based healing for more effective therapeutic outcomes, especially for those with a history of trauma.
Dr. Nongard's accessible writing style and detailed instruction make complex concepts clear and applicable to daily practice. From structured session guidelines to specific intervention techniques, this book provides everything needed to confidently incorporate somatic therapy into your therapeutic toolkit in your next client session!
