Sensorimotor Psychotherapy: One Method for Processing Traumatic Memory.
Article published in the electronic journal Traumatology, 6(3), article 3 (October 2000).
In this article, Pat Ogden and Kekuni Minton describe their somatic (body) clinical approach to facilitate processing of unassimilated sensorimotor reactions to trauma; this sensorimotor sequencing, in turn, facilitates emotional and cognitive processing. Sensorimotor Psychotherapy requires that the clinician closely monitor sequential physical movements and sensations associated with motor impulses in the client -- muscular tension, trembling, changes in breathing, posture, and heart rate. The article describes physical defensive responses, 'bottom-up' processing, and a modulation model; case examples illustrate the authors' clinical technique. "
