Identity and the Moving Self – A 10-Week Dance Movement Psychotherapy Session Plan
This 10-week session plan supports clients in exploring identity through embodied movement and creative expression. Designed for therapists trained in Dance Movement Psychotherapy (DMP), it weaves together authentic movement, developmental patterns, cultural embodiment, and personal storytelling.

Each week’s session includes:
Clear therapeutic goals
Movement-based interventions grounded in DMP theory
Suggested resources and reflection prompts
Gentle guidance for working with identity, emotion, and trauma in the body

Why Trust Therapy Sisters?
At Therapy Sisters, we create every resource with care and integrity.

We are committed to providing high-quality, ethical, and accessible therapy resources that align with professional standards. As HCPC-registered professionals, we uphold strict ethical guidelines to ensure that everything we create serves the best interests of both therapists and clients.
We know that not everyone can access traditional therapy, so we’ve put our expertise into developing tools that empower both therapists and the people they support. Our goal is to make compassionate, evidence-based resources widely available, helping more people on their journey to better mental health.
