We explore how dance movement therapy goes beyond traditional dance, highlighting its significance in mental health and self-awareness.
Erica shares her insights on the mind-body connection, emphasizing the need for a rich movement vocabulary and the importance of giving oneself permission to move freely. Our conversation reveals movement’s therapeutic potential in processing emotions, fostering deeper self-connection, and promoting healing.

Join us as we unpack the transformative power of movement therapy and its role in emotional healing and self-discovery.
