Practicum in Relational Somatic Psychology
Faculty:JoAnna Chartrand-Benz & Michael Sieck, PhD
An experiential segment practicing the skillful application of Relational Somatic Psychology with case presentation, practice, and collaborative consultation. Professional application, practical and theoretical dimensions of Relational Somatic Psychology will be explored and practiced with emphasis on the therapist’s personal comfort in the relational field. How to work with one’s own “issues” of embodiment and how they affect the therapeutic process will be emphasized. Depending on the needs of the participants, some of the potential areas to be covered are: Learn to recognize, work with and integrate the levels of processing- emotional, cognitive and somatic awareness. Gather information by tracking and breath awareness. Practice recognition of self-regulation problems and how to overcome them by accessing resources. Explore personal and client capacity for real compassion and increased felt sense of worth. Learn to discern, be informed by and share how somatic influences affect our relational stance in the world. Work with specific issues related to particular client/therapist needs.
This segment will be taught once a year at Esalen.

Attachment, Attunement, And Adult Sexuality
Applications of Attachment Research to Embodied Individual, Couple and Sex
Faculty: Stella Resnick PhD
Early experiences of parent-child emotional attunement or mis-attunement can result in chronic stress patterns, internal working models of relationship, and attachment styles that directly impact adult intimate relationships. This seminar provides a therapeutic model for emotional intimacy and sexual fulfillment that synthesizes the relevant research from both developmental psychobiology and sexology and offers a body-based Gestalt approach to relationship and sexual concerns. As individuals and couples develop a greater awareness of the somatic roots of intimacy, and how their attachment styles and sexuality are interconnected, their relationship and sexual difficulties can become significant opportunities for personal growth and healing.

Experience in Psychotherapy. Experience how character strategies, trauma and core beliefs are revealed and transformed through the body.

Suggested Reading; Trauma & the Body by Pat Ogden, SBGI Course: SOM648e, 2.5 Credits/Units
Life makes shapes. The body is shaped through the basic experiences and attitudes that are held
both consciously and unconsciously. The way the self is formed is an expression of mental,
emotional and spiritual life. All life strategies are organized, habitual patterns of reaction to real or
perceived joy and stress. When muscles are repeatedly mobilized in unison with mental and
emotional patterns, they become part of a complex, orchestrated unitary response. These patterns
leave their imprint on our body and mind and develop into a particular way of being, into character.
Character structure is formed in response to life and is the enduring quality of how we meet the
world. Through mindful awareness, participants will experience how character strategies and core
beliefs are revealed through the body. Our emphasis will be to discover, explore and work with
these soma-psyche patterns in the therapeutic context.

Mindful Body-Mind Psychology and Practice: The Hakomi Method
Faculty: Ron Kurtz and Dyrian Benz PsyD
The Hakomi Method is a highly sophisticated mind-body treatment approach that integrates elements of mindfulness practice and loving presence, enhanced bodily awareness, and modern methods of psychotherapy. By focusing on embodied habitual patterns, Hakomi rapidly and safely accesses unconscious core attitudes, which shape how we relate to others and ourselves.
A healing relationship is created out of the exquisite sensitivity and connection between the therapist and client, which allows for a deeper awareness and greater creativity in living to occur.
A person’s emotional history—especially the part that
has created the unconscious habits and beliefs with which that person meets the world—that history is operating
right now. This living history is written in the way the person does things now, in the somatic and personal character and in the relational style. Hakomi is a method of mindful, assisted self-discovery using loving presence to create healing relationships.
Being mindfully aware and attending to the richness of our present experience, creates scientifically recognized enhancements in our brain physiology, our mental functions, and our inter-personal relationships. Mindful, somatic awareness is easily learned and opens our lives to new possibilities of well-being.
Faculty: Ron Kurtz

He is the author of Body-Centered Psychotherapy: the Hakomi Method and the co-author of The Body Reveals and Grace Unfolding.

Neuroscience and Relationship: Practical Interpersonal Neurobiology, Attachment Theory and Psychotherapy
Faculty: Louis Cozolino PhD
Our brains are highly social organisms. Just as neurons communicate through mutual stimulation, brains strive to connect with one another. Attachment relationships and the early development of the brain have massive long-lasting effects throughout the lifespan. We will focus on how the architecture and development of brain systems - from before birth through adulthood - determine how we interact with others. Neuroscience teaches us that there are parts of us that you can’t reach with language and that it’s very important for therapists to know how to access them.
This course offers practical applications of current advances in brain research, clinical practice, and attachment theory. Through lectures, presentations, discussion and experiential exploration, participants can readily begin to understand how the findings of neuroscience and attachment theory can apply to clinical practice. With the insights from neuroscience it is possible to establish a compelling model of how psychotherapy works.
Faculty: Louis Cozolino PhD
Is a professor of psychology at the Graduate School of Education and Psychology at Pepperdine University.

SBGI Course: SOM648f, 2.5 Credits/Units
The interaction between body processes and states of consciousness will be explored in relation to
the transpersonal, psychological and recent neuro-science findings. Within this interdisciplinary
perspective we will study the body, presence, the experience of the sacred and how to facilitate
therapeutic change. We will also focus on the individual growth process of the practitioner and
expand the therapist’s ability to be deeply present with the other in the therapeutic relationship.
Learn to work with the loss of essential connection to the self, which is prevalent in so many people
in our time. We’ll cultivate skills of presence, awareness of sensory experience, self-regulation and
embodiment of states of consciousness. We will develop a practical awareness of the connection
between mind-body-being, in order to recognize and experience the essential dimension of the
body. Our emphasis will be to move from and through the body to the essence of our being.

In this program, we will enter our bodies in order to inquire, discover, and allow to flourish what we
witness there. We will learn basic embodiment practices and tap into the natural human functions
of presence, compassion, and healing. We will explore the brain/mind-body partnership,
understanding basic mechanisms in the human brain that can simplify some of our unique
complexity. In addition we will explore our lifelong ability to develop and how to shift our view of
human life from pathology to development. These skills will be applied individually, and relationally,
both on a personal level as well as in the therapeutic setting of the helping professions.

verbal psychotherapists who want to integrate direct or indirect work with the body into their clinical
practice. Participants should be prepared to engage in a significant amount of respectful, somatic
self-exploration within the program. Specific areas covered are: the therapy relationship as the
foundation for somatic psychotherapy, presence, attunement, and tracking, and physicalizing
