Original Movement Therapy™ comes from the thought that all true movement comes from within. Devika Sekhar, trained and worked in Dance Movement Psychotherapy in the UK and now practices in India. Devika Sekhar is also an Associate International Member of the ADTA. This original movement is lost over time due to our hectic schedules and don’t have time to reembrace it.It is also a mean for those unable to speak or people who are dealing with clinical issues that are hidden within the subconscious ,beyond the reach of language.

Description

This different approach to therapy is unlike ‘talking therapies’ as it worked through movement, art and sound. This is also not a dance class and prior knowledge of dance is not necessary. It is important to remember that the therapist will be working alongside you to be able to express yourself. Through this we will be looking, taking chances and experimenting together.

Original movement therapy is suitable for both children and adults, both individually and in groups. It is especially recognised when working with families with children with special needs or families going through some form of emotional ordeal.
Some problems which can be worked through original movement therapy are;

Behavioural issues; anti-social children and adults
Those with Autism
Emotional issues
Relationship difficulties
Anger issues
Life crisises
Those who seem to be directionless in life.
Self awareness

It is also important to note that one doesn't have to have something 'wrong' with them to come for OMT sessions or want to take part in workshops. Goal specific workshops/sessions are designed for those in the corporate setting or schools or NGOs. Kindly contact me if you'd like to know more.
