Therapists Who Practice Dance/Movement Therapy

Dance and/or movement therapy is centered around the principle that mind, body, and spirit are intertwined and that moving one’s body can have positive effects on both the mind and spirit. This form of therapy was pioneered in the 1940’s, and is seen as a holistic approach—addressing the whole person. The exact style or structure of movement therapy can vary, but the defining characteristic is that it involves expression and catharsis through movement.
