Embodied Awareness in Therapy: Navigating the Unspoken Dynamics

Join us for an immersive and experiential CPD training that explores the unspoken dynamics of therapy — the subtle, embodied exchanges that shape deep relational work.

Over two in-person days, this small-group workshop will support you in cultivating embodied self-awareness, emotional attunement, and non-verbal sensitivity. Through live, grounded exercises and reflective dialogue, you’ll learn to navigate body language, gesture, and presence as powerful therapeutic tools.

Drawing from attachment theory, interpersonal neurobiology, and Gestalt therapy, the course emphasises the moments between words — where posture, breath, tone, and shared emotion offer rich clinical insight.

This training is facilitated by experienced and specialist group therapists, with a strong emphasis on emotional safety and embodied pacing. It offers practical and personal tools to help you show up more fully, responsively, and intuitively in your work.
