Can body-based therapy heal trauma in personality disorders?

This study looks at whether a 12-session group therapy called sensorimotor psychotherapy (SP) can help people with personality disorders and a history of childhood trauma better regulate their emotions. SP focuses on body awareness and physical techniques, unlike standard talk therapies. About 131 adults from five Dutch clinics will either receive SP plus usual care or usual care alone, with results measured through questionnaires before, after, and two months later.
