Student Clinic

Affordable Body Psychotherapy

Some of you may like to take advantage of discounted body psychotherapy sessions with our graduating students. Students have been trained by our institute and are closely supervised by an experienced Core Energetics trainer.

Your sessions would be much the same as with a graduated therapist except that your student therapist will be checking in their progress with you with a supervisor in between sessions. This is a great way to access great expertise at a small price.

Student therapist sessions range between
$50 – $60,
and you would need to commit to completing five sessions over a period of no more than 3 months with your student therapist.

For more information contact info@instituteofbodypsychotherapy.com

Details of participating students will be updated regularly

Alexandra Rodrigues

Alexandra has been weaving her way through Vancouver and Brisbane teaching Yoga since 2008. Alexandra is also a self-professed eternal student of anatomy & physiology, philosophy & psychotherapy, and energetic healing modalities. Alexandra believes that Body Psychotherapy holds some very key ‘missing links’ that her previous and various studies in yoga and kinesiology did not cover. Alexandra believes Body Psychotherapy holds the capacity for others to work through and self-heal (with the right guidance) all the emotional debris and armouring that refrains a person from connecting and genuinely embodying their inner truth, love, capacity for greater pleasure and fulfilment whilst also acknowledging their own negativity and responsibility to self-generate authentic health, happiness and wholeness that is enduring in Body, Mind and Spirit / Energetically. Alexandra says: “My philosophy is simple; to transform our health and life we must shift our gaze inward. One, must choose this, with our whole being and be a willing participant in self-cultivating authentic health, happiness, and wholeness. Wholeness meaning, we embrace all that is within, ‘the shadow & the light’ our ‘humanness & soulfulness’.”

Amber McBride

Amber’s journey into body psychotherapy began after a career devoted
to capturing people’s life stories as a documentary filmmaker. She is
now in the final stages of her training, benefiting from close
supervision by an experienced therapist.

Having been a client of clinical psychology, Amber encountered the
limitations of traditional talk therapy. Her quest for more holistic
and enduring transformation led her to discover the profound potential
of body psychotherapy. After years of her own therapy and training,
Amber is deeply grateful for the opportunity to guide clients on their
path toward lasting transformation in their lives.

Amber’s experiential training has strengthened her belief that a
therapist can more effectively guide clients to places they’ve
personally explored. In her practice, she provides a warm, open, and
creative space where deep transformation can flourish.

As part of her Body Psychotherapy accreditation, Amber offers
discounted student sessions. In-person appointments are available in
Sydney, NSW, or online sessions are available from anywhere.

Eleanor Danks

Eleanor is an experienced coach and facilitator with a background in
embodied movement, breathwork, energetic healing, and trauma-informed
coaching. Her decision to train as a Core Energetics Body
Psychotherapist came from a deep desire to help her clients achieve
deeper and longer-lasting change in their life. Through her experience
as a client and student of Core Energetics, she has found this modality
to be by far the most effective at shifting those somewhat “stubborn”
parts of us that keep us tethered to past experiences and repeating old
patterns. It is through shifting these parts that we are able to live
the present, connected, and intentional life that we all desire.
Eleanor is based in East Fremantle in WA, and can be contacted at
unfurlsomatictherapy@gmail.com or through booking a 15-minute introduction call.
