About me

I am Victoria de la Parra, a Dance Movement (Psycho) Therapist and Body Therapist from Chile, currently living in Berlin. I hold a Master's degree in Dance Movement Therapy from the Autonomous University of Barcelona, and I have received training in the Cognitive Body Integration Method, as well as in Expressive Arts Therapy for trauma and Somatic Practices. My work is driven by a profound appreciation for the healing potential of the body and movement. I feel privileged to accompany individuals on their journey of healing and personal growth, always placing their well-being as a top priority.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
Body therapyGood for those who want to connect their mind and body to release stress or trauma through physical sensations and movement.
Somatic coachingGood for those who want to use body awareness and movement to release emotional tension and promote personal growth.
I seek to create a warm, sensitive and compassionate space to explore emotions, sensations, thoughts and memories. Together, we will take the necessary time, using body and movement, to feel, dive in and express that which might be challenging to articulate only in words, thereby empowering your inner resources. ------- As a dance movement therapist, my approach is rooted in the principles of embodiment, enaction, and intersubjectivity. This means that I focus on the connection between the mind and body, working with lived experiences, sensations, and body memory. In therapy, I emphasize the importance of the therapeutic relationship. Together with my clients, we construct and explore relational experiences. Furthermore, I integrate a political perspective into my approach, recognizing the impact of power structures and societal influences on individuals.
