Kindness as Therapy

Workshop

About

The Heart of the Therapeutic Relationship in Hakomi MSP

When in search of psychotherapy, we are also in search of another person who will genuinely listen to and care about us, attune to our emotions, and create a safe space for our experiences. While solving our problems and telling our stories is important, the essence of psychotherapy lies in how we are received and the sacred space that is held for us.

In the presence of kindness, curiosity, and mindfulness, our subconscious can reveal itself, allowing us to explore the most delicate and deep parts of our being. We can then gently hold whatever emerges and discover what needs to happen to free ourselves from our habitual patterns and make life more fulfilling.

Join this introductory Hakomi workshop to get a taste of the Hakomi method and experience first-hand the therapeutic power of the loving presence of the Hakomi therapist, their mindful attunement to the present moment, and their client’s body-mind universe. You will gain initial skills to support people in exploring their bodies, emotional wounds, and protective strategies, as well as befriending them with kindness, the latter representing all and in itself a potent healing therapeutic tool.
