What is Concentrative movement therapy? Concentrative Movement Therapy (CMT) is a form of therapy that combines body movement and concentration to promote healing and self-awareness. CMT draws from principles of somatic psychology, mindfulness, and dance/movement therapy.
The therapy involves guided movement and breathing exercises that aim to help individuals connect with their inner selves and emotions. The movements are designed to promote relaxation, reduce stress and anxiety, increase body awareness, and improve self-expression.
CMT can be beneficial for individuals dealing with a range of mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and stress-related disorders. It can also be used in conjunction with other therapies, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic therapy.
CMT is typically led by a trained therapist who can guide clients through the movements and help them process any emotions that may arise during the therapy session.
