Virginia Satir’s Evolving Legacy: Transformative Therapy with a Bodymind Connection
Our Book Is Now In Print - Soft Copy and Digital

Virginia Satir (1916-1988), the world renowned family therapist was a forerunner in actively including the human body in her therapeutic approach at a time when involving the body in any type of therapy was very limited, maybe even discouraged. Now the body is often central in the practice of therapeutic change.
Our book Virginia Satir’s Evolving Legacy: Transformative Therapy with a Bodymind Connection is a collaborative work by a diverse group of therapeutic practitioners. Each has individually incorporated Satir’s Model and application of Bodymind approaches into their respective private practice over many years.
In his Foreword to the book John Banmen writes:
Their discussions and sharing has resulted in this timely practical book …… One might say, from practice to theory, each chapter is an outstanding presentation of how to achieve an integrative approach applying Bodymind interventions with individuals, couples and families.

John Banmen PhD

We are grateful for John’s involvement from our earliest decision to write together. He has taught, mentored and supervised most of us, and been a strong supporter of our writing.
As one of our “elders” and coauthor of The Satir Model with Virginia Satir, Jane Gerber and Maria Gomori, his involvement and guidance was both needed and deeply appreciated.
