Sound Work in Psychotherapy: Indian Raga, Sound Healing, and Voice in Creative Arts Therapy Practices.
A 15 Credit In-Person Experiential Continuing Education Course for Mental Health Care Practitioners at Dancing Dialogue in Cold Spring, NY.
COURSE DESCRIPTION:
Join licensed creative arts therapists Eric Fraser and Katie Down for a 2.5 day training exploring how sound can be incorporated in psychotherapy.
Drawing from Indian Ragas, traditional sound healing, drone music, Deep Listening practices, and mindfulness, this workshop offers both theory and hands-on practice. You’ll learn how to incorporate sound into your clinical work to support clients navigating PTSD, anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and more.
Through voice work, improvisation, movement practices, creative visualization, and somatic awareness, you’ll explore how sound fosters connection, presence, and healing. You’ll also gain practical tools for integrating instruments such as singing bowls, monochords, shruti boxes, and percussion into your sessions.
What You’ll Gain:
A grounded understanding of sound work in psychotherapy: theory, history, and applied methods.
Tools you can immediately integrate into client work (verbal therapy, movement, and creative arts therapy)
Experience with Indian raga, drone based instruments and voice as therapeutic resources.
Embodied practices for cultivating attunement, connection, and transformation in the therapy space.
