Hakomi mindful somatic psychotherapy is an experiential approach that combines the concepts of:
- unity

- organicity
- mindfulness
- nonviolence
Hakomi integrates principles from Eastern philosophies, somatic therapies, and contemporary psychology, focusing on the present moment to explore and understand unconscious beliefs and patterns. Using mindfulness and somatic interventions, Hakomi helps you become aware of how past experiences and ingrained beliefs shape your current behaviors, emotions, and somatic responses.

hakomi and psychedelic therapy: combining forces
Combining psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy with Hakomi Therapy can deepen the therapeutic process, increase connection with self, and enhance growth.
When used together, Hakomi and psychedelic-assisted therapy opens a window into the psyche that can reveal deeply rooted patterns and beliefs. When integrated with Hakomi's mindfulness and somatic techniques, this enhanced access allows clients to explore these revelations in a supportive and structured way.
Hakomi's focus on present-moment awareness and the mind-body connection helps to ground and process the insights gained during psychedelic experiences, making preparation and integration more profound and transformative. This combination can lead to a more comprehensive healing experience, as it not only uncovers and addresses core issues but also helps clients integrate these insights into their daily lives, promoting lasting change and personal growth.
