Groupwork
Movement therapy groupwork at Day Centres and Care Homes
I also offer Movement Therapy group work to Day centres and Care home settings. This promotes physical and emotional wellbeing as well as a lot of fun and positive connections.
Dance Movement Therapy sessions provide a safe therapeutic space to engage physically, socially and emotionally through movement and dance to focus on promoting increased physical and mental wellbeing.
Dance, movement, play and music can spark memories and feelings, re-visiting movement memories held in our bodies. I use a wide variety of props and music to encourage individuals to engage in the movement and with each other.
Evaluations from my group work sessions have shown the following outcomes:
Positive group cohesion.
Improved relationships within the group.
Increased mobility, strength and coordination.
Enjoyment of movement and play.
Increased sense of self.
Growth in personal confidence and wellbeing.
