S10E9 - Trauma & The Embodied Arts with Monique Pangari

How can we work DEEP in the body without ‘blowing up’ someone’s
trauma? 


Almost all somatic practitioners (including embodiment coaches) I
work go through a phase of feeling super worried about activating
latent trauma & triggering a client. This is a conversation I
have with women a lot. 


Sometimes, this fear manifests as an extreme over-abundance of
caution, need to “get it right” & hyper-fixation on
strategies. 


This results in practitioners holding themselves back from
deepening into sensation - to everyone’s detriment, especially
the clients. 


 


Today on the podcast we’re speaking with Somatic Psychotherapist
& founder of The School of Integrative Somatic Psychotherapy
Monique Pangari about somatic approaches to trauma-centric
therapy and what practitioners need to know if they are worried
about activating latent trauma (plus so much more). 


Monique's training & experience is vast & in this
conversation, we explore: 
-    Examples of somatic strategies to support clients
in a trauma therapy setting 
-    Why embodied approach are deceptively simple &
some of the core components for practitioners to make them work
well 
-    The difference between trauma therapy, therapy
& coaching 
-    What practitioners need to know if they are
worried about activating a client’s trauma 
-    The importance of rupture & repair for
practitioners 
-    Attachment styles & the work Monique created
for counsellors & psychotherapists
