Canberra Region Self Psychology Community
Australia
We are a collective of counsellors, psychotherapists, psychologists, psychiatrists, and social workers who are working psychotherapeutically within a Kohutian Self Psychological framework which places empathic attunement and the therapeutic relationship central to the processes supporting change and growth.
We also recognise the role the body plays in psychotherapeutic work.
Many of us have studied a variety of body-oriented modalities allowing us to weave into “talk therapy” awareness of and attention to the stories our bodies tell about what we need.
We have organized in order to support each other in our practices of Kohutian Self Psychology as there are so few of us in Australia. We have also organized so that we can promote Kohutian Self Psychology within Australia.
