What is Hakomi?
Much more than a method or set of techniques, Hakomi Experiential Psychotherapy is a way of looking at the world that is compassionate, mindful, curious, non-invasive, humorous and respectful.
Hakomi is a Hopi Indian word, that has been borrowed to describe the distinctive approach to body-inclusive psychotherapy developed in the USA by therapist and author Ron Kurtz and members of his training staff.
