Using Expressive Movement and Body
Awareness to Explore Countertransference Dilemmas of the Group
Therapist
Chair:
Suzanne Cohen, Ed.D., CGP, FAGPA, Private Practice,
Wellesley, Massachusetts
The body gives us information that is unavailable through conscious
thought. Through somatic awareness and expressive movement to music
(The NIA Technique) we will explore countertransference dilemmas
that can arise in our group therapy leadership. Participants are
encouraged to come prepared with a countertransference question.
Please wear comfortable clothing for movement.
