| Annie Brook,
Ph.D., LPC, is a skilled facilitator and therapist whose knowledge
of the body, of meditative practices, energy, ritual and
the psychology of personal story makes her work unique
in its depth. Her passion is living fully embodied and
sharing tools of communications and the expression of
integrated conscious movement.
In 1978, Annie began
her studies in body-mind awareness in Berkeley, CA, where she
earned her BA in somatic psychology. She merged studies in somatic
psychology, meditation, and movement. These included bioenergetic
therapy, neo-Reichian work, transactional analysis, contact
improvisation, improvisational theater, and Sufi, Buddhist,
and Native American philosophies and meditative practices. This
work formed the foundation of her interest in body-mind spirit
work. Her Masters in Applied Behavioral Science focused on family
system dynamics, organizational development, and communications.
Practical application of these skills
led to work with infants and children in the trauma sections
at Oakland and Seattle Children's Hospitals, and in the public
schools. In addition, Annie has owned a movement studio in
Taos, NM, and has written numerous books and articles on body-mind
awareness.
In 1997 Annie became a certified BodyMind
Centering® teacher. In addition, she is a certified Body
Mind Psychotherapist, a certified Tantra teacher, a performance
artist, and a licensed professional counselor. Annie maintains
an ongoing private psychotherapy practice and teaches workshops
throughout the country and the world. Her courses include:
Contact Improvisation, BodyMind Centering and Movement Education,
Playback Theater, Prenatal and Birth, and Healthy Sexuality.
These courses support a full-bodied integration of spirit,
soul, and heart.
Annie lives in Boulder, CO, and is
the former Director of the Body Psychology track at Naropa University
for the Somatic Psychology Masters program. Annie co-own Colorado Therapies, a center for attachment and family treatment that offers a team approach (see www.coloradotherapies.com). In addition, she
teaches Anatomy, Kinesiology, and BodyMind Centering®
for Core College and the Interarts program. She is available
