A West coast pioneer of dance therapy, Mary Starks Whitehouse began the work she called movement-in-depth in the 1950s. Based on her dance training with Mary Wigman, and her own personal experiences in Jungian psychoanalysis, she developed a rich and detailed movement bridge to inner experience, including unconscious, preverbal, direct sensation, dreams, and interpersonal dynamics. The core of the movement experience she explored is the sensation of both moving, and being moved at the same moment, activated with attention, allowing and following the authentic movement impulse. She had a gift for translating inner experience into suggestions that furthered her students’ explorations. The recollection of my work with Mary, which occurred between 1975 and 1978 in San Francisco, California, is supported by personal audio recordings, from which all quotes are taken, unless otherwise noted.

\"5 A recent review of the research on multicultural counseling concluded that \"ethnic minorities receive not only different but less preferred forms of treatment than do whites. Former students have identified other subcultures: people with handicaps, obese people, gays and lesbians, single parents, abused women, the men's movement, and now AIDS patients and their families. A national survey indicated that even after several factor adjustments, blacks have \"significantly lower levels of wellbeing than whites\" in the United States.41 And people are beginning to use the framework of common concern to encompass cultural diversity.

This dissertation explores the theoretical and clinical synthesis of three body therapy practices: dance/movement therapy, acupressure (Jin Shin Do) and breathwork, within a transpersonal philosophical context and a process orientation. The three discrete modalities are presented with clinical examples of their application with neurotic adults in individual psychotherapy. The major premises of transpersonal body work are presented and illustrated. The synthesis of the three modalities is discussed within the context of an exploration of the major issues of each center of the body. The transferability of the body therapy synthesis is demonstrated in a project involving a teacher and two students from the Colorado School for the Deaf and the Blind. The teacher was taught the basic principles and practices and applied them in individual sessions with these students over a two-month period. A videotape documents pre-, mid- and post-treatment behavior, which is also evaluated on an assessment scale devised by the researcher.

The first mistake is that people commit to outcomes (which cannot be controlled) rather than processes (which are always within our control.)
