"It takes two to tango" : Allians i dans och psykoterapiChristine, Crevatin January 2022 (has links)
The therapeutic alliance including the therapist's intersubjectivity has proven important in psychotherapy. In dance and movement therapy and couple dancing non-verbal interaction is central, though not high-lighted in verbal psychotherapy. This study explores facilitators of interaction of couple dancing and transfer those to the therapeutic alliance. Interviews with couple dancers were analyzed according to qualitative content analysis and interpreted using attachment and intersubjectivity theory. The results indicate that facilitators of interaction are psychological maturity, intersubjective matching and mindful presence; furthermore, that an agreement is needed but affected by the social context. Implementation of such components in verbal therapy may benefit the therapeutic alliance. It could be done by considering the therapists’ attachment pattern and matching the patient´s one non-verbally. The author concludes that psychological development and intersubjective skills should be considered in psychotherapist training, possibly through practice with tape recording and techniques from the creative and meditative domains.
