  • (REICHIAN) THERAPY by Neil Schierholz Psyd
    TOWARD A PATIENT-CENTERED UNDERSTANDING OF ORGONOMIC (REICHIAN) THERAPY by Neil Schierholz PsyD San Francisco, California Copyright © 2011 by Neil Schierholz PsyD Los Angeles (310) 866-0440 San Francisco (415) 821-2345 [email protected] Abstract THIS STUDY EXPLORES the experience of patients who have been treated with orgonomic (Reichian) therapy. The purpose of this study is to shed light on the experience of undergoing this therapy from the perspective of patients who benefited from it. A brief history of Reich and his theory and practice of orgonomic therapy is chronicled along with clinical and autobiographical accounts of treatment cases. Seven current or former patients who have been treated with and benefited from orgonomic therapy were interviewed using a qualitative, heuristic method yielding rich experience-near descriptions of the subjective experience, conscious and unconscious meanings, and functions/experience of orgonomic therapy. Interview data were inductively coded producing individual depictions for each research participant, a composite depiction, and six core themes of the experience: (a) entry into orgonomic therapy, (b) orgonomic therapist attributes, (c) orgonomic biopsychotherapy, (d) experience of the therapeutic process, (e) therapeutic results, (f) thoughts and feelings about orgonomic therapy. The results are consistent with Reich’s theory and practice of orgonomic therapy and provide a broader, deeper, and richer understanding of the patient experience directly from the aggregate voices of those who have experienced and benefited from it first-hand. The results also indicate that patients who are treated with and benefit from orgonomic therapy feel innately and intuitively drawn to it. Clinical implications are offered along with recommendations for future study.

  • Celal Eldeniz Body Psychotherapy in Turkey.Pdf
    BODY PSYCHOTHERAPY AROUND THE WORLD Body Psychotherapy in Turkey Celâl Eldeniz ABSTRACT Body psychotherapy is quite a new approach in Turkey. Although there are Turkish translations of several books by Reich and Lowen, and although trainings have been offered in Turkey for the last ten years, there are as yet no certified body psychotherapists in Turkey. In addition, the lack of a national psychotherapy association highlights the need for a body psychotherapy association to monitor and regulate the training and certification of future body psychotherapists. Consequently, the establishment of a Turkish Body Psychotherapy Association is planned in the near future in the hope that this will support the development of an active body psychotherapy community. Keywords: body psychotherapy, training, psychotherapy association start, Turkey International Body Psychotherapy Journal The Art and Science of Somatic Praxis Volume 18, Number 1, Spring 2019 pp. 106 - 109 ISSN 2169-4745 Printing, ISSN 2168-1279 Online © Author and USABP/EABP. Reprints and permissions [email protected] Background Body psychotherapy is a new approach in Turkey despite the fact that many years ago, several books by Wilhelm Reich and Alexander Lowen were translated into Turkish, and body therapies are practiced in the country. Reich's Listen Little Man is the best known of the available body psychotherapy books. My journey in body psychotherapy started in 1995 when, as a curious high school student, I read Bioenergetics by Lowen. I remember how amazed I was to discover a connection between my constantly evolving adolescent body and my mood. In the years that followed, I wanted to learn more, but formal training in body psychotherapy was not possible, as there was no training institution in Turkey.

    Facing the Fear of Vulnerability Treatment of a Child with Reactive Attachment Disorder By Faye Snyder, M.A. A Clinical Case Study Dissertation Submitted in Partial Satisfaction of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Psychology in Clinical Psychology. RYOKAN COLLEGE OF PSYCHOLOGY, LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA December 31, 2004 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I have such deep gratitude to the child about whom this paper is written, because he decided to honor me with his trust. I am also grateful that his new mommy was remarkably strong, selfless and committed to meet the arduous challenge before her. I would like to acknowledge his father for offering essential and unwavering support necessary to do the work and for his ongoing faith even when the child was backsliding and the process seemed hopeless. I wish to thank Dr. Madeline Taylor, my advisor, for her guidance and lessons in clarity through this phase of my program. That she appreciated the importance of prevention and the significance of attachment in assessment and treatment was spiritually priceless. I wish to thank the administration of Ryokan for hiring so many wonderful teachers. I would also like to thank the Val Verde Scholarship Fund for investing in me this late in my life. I would like to thank my husband, Ron, for accepting and believing in me and for all the housework he assumed to support me in achieving this goal. I am also grateful to my son, Scott, who enjoyed a secure attachment and yet cares for those who didn’t. He has always been curious about my work, including this paper.

  • Body Psychotherapy
    ULFRIED GEUTER Body Psychotherapy: Experiencing the Body, Experiencing the Self1 Ulfried Geuter Abstract This article offers an understanding of body psychotherapy as an experiential psychotherapeutic approach. It suggests basing body psychotherapy on the idea of the experiencing human subject in his life process and conceiving body experience as the basis of self-experience. The article further proposes giving body psychotherapy a paradigmatic foundation in the theory of the embodied mind. THE ART AND SCIENCE OF SOMATIC PRAXIS Keywords: Body psychotherapy, holism, experiencing, embodied mind International Body Psychotherapy Journal The Art and Science of Somatic Praxis Volume 15, Number 1 spring 2016 Lisbon Congress Supplement pp 06 - 19. ISSN 2169-4745 Printing, ISSN 2168-1279 Online © Author and USABP/EABP. Reprints and permissions [email protected] Body psychotherapy is a field that embraces various approaches working with the body and the mind in one treatment. The different approaches follow different models. Some tend to understand the treatment as mainly working with the language of the body within the therapeutic relationship, others as working with awareness for body processes or with the felt meaning of body sensations, still others with an underlying energy circulating in the whole body-mind-system. Therefore Totton claims that “the existing frameworks are by no means satisfactory or complete” (2003, p. 138) and “that the core project should now be for body psychotherapy to become a coherent discipline” (2002, p. 202). Most body psychotherapists might agree that their approach addresses psychic and somatic processes in therapy by including various body related methods such as: body perception and expression; perception and regulation of breathing; grounding; holding; studying enactments; and/or studying the INTERNATIONAL BODY PSYCHOTHERAPY JOURNAL PSYCHOTHERAPY BODY INTERNATIONAL meaning of the signs of body communication.

(1:72) -Wilhelm Reich Introduction In times past one of the major forms the emotional plague took was sex-negative morality. Sexuality was bad, wrong, and sinful. The morality promoted repression and as an expression of hatred created misery and destruction. However, today such an attitude would be almost refreshing, for it implies personal responsibility, a private relationship between the individual and God, i.e., accountability. Authoritarian, patriarchal morality focused on a code of ethics beyond the passing impulse and momentary convenience of the individual. In today's world a major form the emotional plague takes is anti­ authority liberalism.

Rosen Method Bodywork (RMB) is a complementary approach with a small, but growing body of evidence. The purpose of this research study was to explore the processes of Rosen Method Bodywork to develop a theoretical framework about what occurs over the course of receiving sessions RMB, both within the recipient and between the recipient and the practitioner. In this grounded theory study, data from interviews of twenty participants was analyzed and a theoretical model of the overall process of RMB was constructed. The model consists of the five integrative phases through which these participants moved within the iterative RMB process from Feeling Stuck and Disconnected to Feeling Connected. Mindfulness is observed to be a central component of the RMB process which participants describe as helpful for trauma recovery.

  • Wilhelm Reich and the Corruption of Ideals: a Discussion in the Context of Dusan Makavejev’S WR: Mysteries of the Organism
    Wilhelm Reich and the Corruption of Ideals: A Discussion in the Context of Dusan Makavejev’s WR: Mysteries of the Organism Lore Reich Rubin, M.D. William F. Cornell, M.A. Abstract This article utilizes Dusan Makavejev’s semi-documentary film on Wilhelm Reich, WR: Mysteries of the Organism as case material for an examination of the interplay of idealization and ideology in Reich’s work and that of his followers. The article seeks to clarify the original political and clinical intent of Reich’s work (first presented at a meeting of the Pittsburgh Psychoanalytic Society and Institute, October, 13, 2006). Key words Wilhelm Reich – Body Psychotherapy – Idealization – Ideology – Dusan Makavejev INTRODUCTION TO THE FILM: Idealization & Ideology William F. Cornell World War I had left Sigmund Freud deeply dispirited. Freud determined that his psychoanalytic movement had a fundamental social (though not political) responsibility (Danto, 2005), and at his urging each city with a major psychoanalytic center established a clinic offering free psychoanalysis and education to the poor and working class, first in Berlin in 1920 under Karl Abraham and then in Vienna in 1922. Reich’s experience in the Vienna clinic had a profound influence on him. In The Function of the Orgasm, Reich described his experience in the clinics as pivotal in his work: The psychoanalytic clinic became a fountainhead of insights into the mechanisms of neuroses in impecunious people. I worked in this clinic from the day of its opening as the chief assistant physician… The consultation hours were jammed. There were industrial workers, office clerks, students, and farmers from the country.
