ABSTRACT
The psychological substrate of the top left quadrant belongs to the domain of clinical psychologists and psychotherapists, while the ethical, systemic and cultural-philosophical substrate in the bottom-left corner is more specifically the work domain of couples and system therapists, philosophical counsellors and ethical experts. Academic studies prefer to work with a biopsychosocial model. Within a transdisciplinary model for the psychosomatic body, there must also be room for development-oriented and process thinking, for the fundamental role of experience and meaning, and for the unconscious. Somatic therapists will therefore not only shed light on the somatic side, but will also consider the patient’s psychological and social environment. Working from the myofascial armour or with evocative movement and breathing as an entry point results in continuous changes within the experience and awareness processes in which the patient finds himself. The fulcrum concept is quite detailed, with Ken Wilber using different processes that describe the developmental dynamics in both healthy-functional and pathological-dysfunctional directions.
