Pesso Boyden System Psychomotor (PBSP) is a body-based therapy, and an approach to human psychological development.

It represents the coming together of psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioural and system-oriented principles, along with client-centred attitudes, in one integrated philosophy. Body-based information and experiences are utilised, applying well defined principles and techniques which are offered to participants in a way that empowers them to stay in charge of their own therapeutic process. This unified method is supported by the latest research on cognition, emotion, memory systems and brain functions.

The Training programme in short

Pesso Boyden therapy training programmes are part-time and last at minimum three years. Each year consists of 8 days of formal training. The teaching is interactive and engaging, featuring skills practice from the outset. It includes ‘live supervision’ and demonstrations, which are interspersed with formal lectures. Participants learn how to incorporate using the body in their therapeutic practice.

Participants undertake their own individual study and practice throughout the programme. They are also expected to experience Pesso Boyden structures as clients, as part of their personal therapy outside the programme.
