Dance Movement Therapy helps you reconnect with your body, process emotions, and create a path toward healing through intentional movement.
Dance Movement Therapy (DMT) is a therapeutic practice that uses movement to support emotional, mental, and physical well-being. It’s not about learning steps or performing; instead, it’s about letting your body express what’s inside. Every stretch, gesture, or flow of movement becomes a way to release tension, process emotions, and rediscover connection within yourself.
Our bodies hold onto experiences in ways we don’t always recognise—whether it’s stress stored as tight shoulders, anxiety felt in shallow breaths, or emotions that feel stuck. DMT creates a safe and supportive environment for you to explore these sensations and begin to release them.
This isn’t about being a “dancer” or knowing what to do. Dance Movement Therapy meets you exactly where you are, whether that’s lying still and noticing the tiniest movements or letting your body move freely. It’s adaptable, intuitive, and deeply personal, allowing you to connect with yourself in a way that feels natural and empowering.
Dance Movement Therapy works by using your body’s natural movements as a form of expression. Every movement—whether it’s a stretch, a shift, or even stillness—carries emotional and physical insights. These movements allow you to explore what your body is holding, uncovering emotions, tension, or patterns that might otherwise remain buried.
In a session, there’s no choreography or need for dance experience. The process is intuitive and shaped around your needs. Whether it’s a guided sway, a simple gesture, or just noticing the natural rhythms of your body, movement meets you where you are. This flexibility makes DMT accessible and welcoming, no matter your ability or experience.
Each session is gently guided, helping you navigate the emotions, sensations, and patterns that arise. This isn’t about following a script; it’s about creating a space where you feel supported to explore at your own pace, discovering what your body and emotions need in the moment.
Dance Movement Therapy offers more than just physical movement—it’s a way to reconnect with yourself, process emotions, and find a sense of balance in your life.
Here’s how it can help:
Sometimes, we don’t even realise how much stress and emotion our bodies are holding onto. Through movement, Dance Movement Therapy gently helps you release that tension, giving your mind and body the space it needs to be at peace.
When life feels overwhelming, it’s easy to lose touch with what your body is trying to tell you. This therapy helps you tune in and understand the signals your body is sending, creating a sense of connection that feels grounding and natural.
The simple act of moving with intention can shift your body out of a state of tension and into a state of calm. It’s not about getting it right—it’s about letting your body find its natural rhythm and balance.
Dance Movement Therapy creates a space where you can be fully present with yourself. It’s a reminder that even in the chaos of life, you have the power to pause, reconnect, and move forward in a way that feels right for you.
Dance Movement Therapy isn’t like anything you’ve tried before. It’s not about following rules, meeting expectations, or even knowing what to do. Instead, it’s about creating a space where your body leads the way, guiding you toward what feels right.
This isn’t about fixing something that’s broken—it’s about reconnecting with what’s already within you. Every session is a gentle exploration of your emotions, your experiences, and how they show up in your body. You’re not expected to perform, impress, or “get it right.” This is your time to let go of judgment and simply be.
What makes this practice unique is how it meets you where you are. Whether you feel ready to move freely or you’re just beginning to notice how your body holds tension, Dance Movement Therapy adapts to your needs. Your body becomes an active participant in the process of healing—not something to fight against, but something to listen to and work with.
It’s a different kind of therapy—one that invites you to reconnect with yourself in a way that feels safe, supportive, and deeply personal.
This is your time to reconnect—to yourself, your emotions, and your body. Together, we’ll create a space where you can feel supported to take the steps towards taking back control of your life.
If this feels like the right step for you, I’m here to support you.
