Hakomi is a powerful form of body psychotherapy; a tool that helps us to better understand ourselves. The process is compassionate and kind, but can also be surprising and illuminating. A Hakomi practitioner facilitates the path through which self-understanding can occur, helping clients to gain insight and perhaps open doorways to new experiences.

 

Together, the practitioner and client explore the nuanced, habitual and unnoticed ways of being;  

we study simple things like gestures, facial expressions, patterns of physical tension, seemingly random memories and thoughts that pop up spontaneously. We explore these subtle clues, noticing what they may have to say about the client’s deeply seated beliefs - the often unconscious belief framework around which they organise their sense of self. These explorations are always agreed upon by client and practitioner so that we only follow what the client is curious about, in ways that feel safe, and with close, detailed attention to their experience. Hopefully insights arise, and sometimes, connections can be made which truly impact and enlighten a client, allowing life to be lived more fully.

 

The Hakomi method rests deeply on the belief that we are all already doing the best we can, with what we have, where we are.

 

The practitioner aims to bring no judgement, no desire to identify anything as “wrong” and to have no agenda to create change. Their intention is simply to wholeheartedly support their client in self-discovery – with a profound trust that the inherent, organic wisdom within each of us is always trying to move us towards healing, love and nourishment.
