With a warm heart and very deep breath, I’d like to announce a very big recent accomplishment. After 8 years of working toward my psychotherapy certification in Bioenergetic Analysis, I received word that my final step was approved. I am now a Certified Bioenergetics Therapist (CBT) and body-oriented psychotherapist, accredited by the International Institute of Bioenergetic Analysis (IIBA).

This has been a tremendous journey, of humility first of all as this type of work challenges our deeply held patterns and resistance in the body and psyche in ways I never imagined. I have gained years of life with this method, moving from rigidity to vitality. I can’t begin to explain how grateful I am for this journey & accomplishment.
This will be a lifelong journey of continued learning and awakening to the true self, for myself and for the clients I work with. I step into this official role as a CBT now with great respect and continued curiosity
Bioenergetic Analysis is a unique and effective relational somatic psychotherapy with a long and established history on the cutting edge of modern psychology and the intimate relationship between body and mind. Bioenergetics is the first body-oriented psychotherapy in fact, and in today’s world and emergence of somatic therapies, I see reflections of it all the time in different approaches. We are in a changing world, a new paradigm in therapy and everything else really, where innovation is all around. Yet the foundations and traditions, such as Bioenergetics, should never be forgotten, for they provide the ground innovations are built upon.
I will carry this knowledge, experience and way of seeing into all the work I do, for working with the body in therapy isn’t just important, it’s absolutely essential!
Thank you IMAB in Madrid & ACAB in Barcelona for both being incremental in this journey (y en este camino), and thank you IIBA. And thank you to many of my compañeros along the way, as it’s been quite a journey! You know who you are. 😉
