Editorial Review: Product Description: Bridging the gap between cognitive and somatic models. Psychological trauma profoundly affects the body. Drawing on this insight, Pat Ogden and her co-authors present a body-based approach to the psychological and physiological symptoms of trauma. Backed by research in attachment, dissociation, and neuroscience, this mode of psychotherapy integrates cognitive and somatic interventions to form a practical and effective treatment modality suitable for all clinicians.

The mind and body are one, and when we learn to treat the "whole" person, people will finally be able to "be whole" as a person.
