Rosen Method Bodywork is a fully realized mind-body practice that uses touch and responsive words to allow the nervous system to deepen awareness of our living body from within. We learn it is possible to really listen to ourselves and to fully “show up” for others. This gentle and profound work of Marion Rosen, a pioneer in the field of body-oriented therapies, can lead to freedom from physical and emotional trauma, stress, discomfort and pain. We begin to become aware of how our whole body reacts to the stresses of everyday situations and in relation to past traumatic experiences, and how those reactions may lead to impairments in health and wellbeing. Eventually, we can learn how to relax and stay in the present moment, being fully aware of all our feelings and sensations as information that helps us make healthy and life sustaining choices about what is good for us and what is harmful. This ease allows more creativity, passion, and clarity.

Provider Services and Experience
"Trauma Informed" training and experience
Rosen Method Bodywork is a trauma-informed modality. Practitioners are trained to be sensitive to observed shifts in the autonomic nervous system using touch, observation and talk. The goal is for clients to learn to feel and identify these changes in themselves so that that they can effectively modulate their levels of arousal and relaxation and feel more in control of their embodied experiences rather than being controlled by those experiences.
"Trauma Trained" training and experience
I am a certified Rosen Method Bodywork practitioner and licensed massage therapist. I also completed additional training to become a certified Senior Teacher and supervisor of Rosen Method trainees. I have taught in many different countries in different parts of the US. I am also a Professor Emeritus of Psychology at the University of Utah, the founding editor of the Rosen Method International Journal (https://roseninstitute.net/journal/journal-volumes/) and author of the book, Body Sense: The Science and Practice of Embodied Self-Awareness (2013, W. W. Norton) and other publications available on my website.
