Courses You Could Take
in Somatic Counseling: Body Psychotherapy
Our integrative psychotherapy approach emphasizes mindfulness and moving meditation, as well as diversity and community engagement. You’ll explore the current understanding of multicultural competence, as well as the historical impact on the bodies that are present in counseling, through the critical lenses of cultural identities, power, and privilege. You’ll also learn how to use mindfulness training, breathwork, interceptive awareness, and other somatic psychotherapy techniques to ease suffering, support mental health, and sustain change in minds, bodies, and lives. The rich and rigorous curriculum will help transform you into a deeply aware somatic psychotherapist.

The Naropa Difference
Based on the belief that understanding and working with others is ultimately based on understanding and working with one's own personal dynamic, we approach somatic psychotherapy as a system process involving self, environment, and the interaction between both.
