"Proprioceptive Writing: A Powerful Process for Therapists and Clients"

 with Jaelline Jaffe, PhD, LMFT

Proprioceptive (Introspective) Writing is a seemingly simple but very powerful process for self-exploration and sharing. The presenter learned this process in 1989 and has shared informal workshops on the topic many dozens of times since then. The process can be incorporated for personal use or for work with clients or therapy groups. All materials provided, or bring your own journal, if you prefer.

Learning Objectives

1. Describe 3 aspects of the introspective writing process called Proprioceptive Writing.
2. Distinguish between this process and other writing approaches (journaling and stream of consciousness).
3. Explain the purpose of specific components in this process (candle, type of music, sharing) that make it unique.
