Instructor: Mariana Boccuzzi Raymundo
I am a woman, a mother, a psychologist, a psychotherapist and a teacher in relational systemic psychotherapy, as well as in Somatic Experiencing. My clinical approach with individuals, families, and couples integrates psychotherapy and SE. This allows me to address relational issues with special attention to the body and its physiology.
My particular interest lies in the study of issues pertaining to human development, attachments and relationships. The “discovery” of the physiological basis of the appeasement response, although familiar in daily clinical practice, has added a new dimension of depth and clarity in the understanding of our interpersonal relationships.
