The global interest in embodied approaches to psychotherapy is on the rise, with this comprehensive volume delving into the distinct fields of dance movement psychotherapy (DMP) and body psychotherapy (BP). It addresses the therapeutic need for healing across the lifespan, emphasizing the collaborative efforts between therapists and clients to harness the power of the body and movement for positive relational skill development. Within the realm of embodied clinical approaches, the therapist and client work together to explore how the body and movement can be utilized to enhance emotional and relational well-being, addressing immediate and long-term client needs through assessment, formulation, treatment, and evaluation.

DMP and BP are grounded in the inherent capacity and authority of the body and non-verbal communication to support and heal patients facing a wide range of conditions, including trauma, unexplained bodily symptoms, and psychological distress. By listening to the client's body for integration and well-being, these therapies aim to develop the client's emotional and relational capacities.

The Routledge International Handbook of Embodied Perspectives in Psychotherapy offers a wealth of knowledge and insights from esteemed experts in the field. Spanning three parts, the book explores foundational concepts of embodiment, explores the potential of DMP and BP, and presents each with a scene-setting piece to facilitate a seamless engagement with the content. With a strong emphasis on cross- and interdisciplinary perspectives, readers will discover a diverse compilation of embodied approaches to psychotherapy, enabling them to deepen their understanding and application of these innovative therapeutic modalities.
