| Description | The aim of the paper is to focus on the essence of psychotherapeutic work and look for the points of contact among the effective therapeutic factors of selected somatically-oriented therapeutic methods. The author lists among the effective factors of therapy the development of bodily self-awareness, working with energy, improved grounding, working with touch, breathing, voice and eye contact. In the second part, the author contemplates the definition of the current dance and movement psychotherapy in the context of defining psychotherapy in general. She initiates a discussion stating her belief that not every dance is psychotherapy, however, there is not a single possible or correct method of dance psychotherapy. |
