The Body Psychotherapy Series

The Body Psychotherapy Series offers concise, bitesize CPD, with four 2-hour sessions spread across the year. Over four live webinars, Nick Totton and Robert Rees will explore how any therapist, regardless of primary modality, can weave the essence of body psychotherapy into their day‑to‑day practice. Across the series, we will study four distinct but interlocking models of body psychotherapy - adjustment, trauma discharge, relational and process‑oriented ways of working - each of which may be most helpful at different points in the therapeutic journey.

Integrating Trauma Informed Embodied Practice

Hosted by Robert Rees & Tamsin Olivier Most therapists can name the trauma responses — fight, flight, freeze, and fawn — but how often do we help clients feel different in their bodies? In this recorded webinar, Robert Rees and Tamsin Olivier explore what it truly means to work with the body in trauma therapy. Moving beyond theory, they share grounded insights and practical somatic tools that support clients in building real experiences of safety, connection, and regulation. Ideal for therapists, coaches, and healing practitioners looking to deepen their trauma-informed, body-based approach. Includes access to the recording and CPD certificate.

By understanding the nature and effects of trauma on the brain and body, this course equips therapists with practical skills for psycho-education and working with trauma. Certificate for 7 hours of CPD.
