May 2007 Body Psychotherapy123 also known as body-oriented psychotherapy is a branch of Psychotherapy with origins in clinical psychology and in the work of Pierre Janet and Sigmund Freud. Body psychotherapy, or Somatic Psychology as it is also known in the USA, addresses both the body and the mind as a whole with emphasis on the reciprocal relationships within body and mind. 4 One branch of body psychotherapy evolved from the work of Wilhelm Reich, author of Character Analysis and many other books, and who developed his form of Psychoanalysis into what he called Vegetotherapy or Character-Analytic Vegetotherapy. When he moved to America in 1939, he proceeded to influence therapists both in the United States and later again in Europe. Many of these therapists developed and practiced their own forms of neo-Reichian therapy. One of the direct developments of Reich's work in the USA was Orgonomy; another was Bioenergetic Analysis, developed by Alexander Lowen and John Pierrakos. It is generally recognised that, whilst the broader concepts of body psychotherapy, like 'energy' in the body, can be extended towards the 'energy' concepts of Eastern medicines and philosophies Yoga, Acupuncture, Tai chi chuan, etc. and have connections with other 'body therapies' like massage, Alexander Technique, Feldenkrais method, etc., Body Psychotherapy itself or Somatic Psychology is developing more directly as a branch of psychotherapy similar to clinical psychology and is also being informed by and supported by recent developments in Neuroscience. Other branches or methods of Body Psychotherapy trace their origins more to the work of the founders of these branches, like Biosynthesis to the work of David Boadella 5, Biodynamic Psychology to Gerda Boyesen, Rubenfeld Synergy to Ilana Rubenfeld, and Body-Mind Psychotherapy to Susan Aposhyan6 also see below. Several of these people were influenced by the work of Wilhelm Reich, but were also considerably influenced by other people and their methods. Body Psychotherapy is very useful in the treatment of trauma. 78 A more recent branch of body psychotherapy has evolved out of Arnie and Amy Mindell's work with the 'dreambody'. 9 Mindell, once a Jungian analyst, began researching illness as a meaningful expression of the unconscious mind. This is an integrative approach to illness, 10 which addresses the cultural, emotional, spiritual and physical connections that illness invites. The 'dreambody' is believed to be an organizing principle in the background somewhat like a morphogenetic field sensu Rupert Sheldrake. The term Body Psychotherapy was utilised first in the 1980s as professional associations relating to this type of psychotherapy began to form. There are now associations of Body Psychotherapy in Europe EABP and America USABP and others are forming around the world. Several journals also exist, including 'Energy Character', 'The USABP Journal of Body Psychotherapy' and the Journal of Body, Dance Movement in Psychotherapy.
