A model for truly integrative therapy: SIP with Dr Melanie Lee and Bridger FalkensteinI'm here today with Dr Mel Lee from Trust Psychology, and Bridger Falkenstein from the Beyond Healing Centre in the US, and notably also from the Notice That podcast. I'm really excited to have Mel and Bridger here today to talk to us about Somatic Integration Processing, which is a new model which aims to help us to synthesise the other approaches that we might have in our arsenal as therapists. SIP has a really deep focus on the mind and body connection, and also on the multiplicity of selves. For me, these are two things that have always been a really big part of my work, but I have often struggled to see how they all come together and fit into a treatment plan.
