What is Dance Movement Psychotherapy (DMP)? 

1. In my own words:

Psychotherapy aims to improve psychological well-being. Dance Movement Psychotherapy is a form of psychotherapy involving the person’s whole self; body and mind move each other and move together.

2. According to the Association of Dance Movement Psychotherapy UK:

“Dance Movement Psychotherapy is a relational process in which client/s and therapist engage in an empathic creative process using body movement and dance to assist integration of emotional, cognitive, physical, social and spiritual aspects of self.”
