Practice for Trauma Therapy & Crisis Support

Integral Somatic Psychology (ISP^®) offers an integrated and advanced approach that takes the body, energetic phenomena, and human consciousness (our perception and awareness) into account in all forms of psychotherapeutic work. ISP^® helps to understand the role of the physical body (the nervous system and all other elements of the physiological system), the subtle body (energy body), and the absolute body (consciousness/awareness) in both the development of and defense against psychological experiences.

ISP integrates the aspects of body, energy, and consciousness more deeply into psychotherapeutic practice, helps to understand the development of psychological disorders, and facilitates self-regulation or interactive regulation as a complement to existing therapeutic approaches. ISP^® offers considerable flexibility regarding the methods that can be used when working with body, energy, and consciousness: from conscious awareness through movement, breathing, and sound to interpersonal resonance, self-touch by the client, or touch by another person.
