Boundaries in Psychotherapy
By: Suzanne K. LaCombe Ed.D., R. Psych.
Human babies will not survive let alone thrive if they are not touched. For the first couple years of our lives, we are right brain dominant. That means that our primary language is through body sensations.
So, when the work in therapy digs deeply into our earliest, non-verbal times of infancy, does it not make sense that we would need touch?
Indeed, can we expect to heal these earliest times without the potential re-wiring that is entailed through touch?
