Description

Our brains are not just rational. Our maps of the world include the body, movement and relationship. To heal wounds to these fundamental systems, we need to engage them. PBSP uses these systems to re-map; we closely track body reactions and images rooted in past experience and provide healing antidotes via symbolic interaction with ideal parents and ideal social groups, positioned at the right age and right relationship to build fundamental trust that clients have lacked and need. Workshop includes experiential demonstrations.
