Andrea Nundy-Malá M.A RDMP, ČAP

Originally from London, I have been living in the Czech Republic for the last 13 years.  I am a qualified movement psychotherapist registered with ADMP UK the Association of Dance Movement Psychotherapy UK, a psychotherapist registered with ČAP the Czech Association of Psychotherapy, and a supervisor to psychotherapists, counsellors and coaches who blend the verbal and non vebal in their practice. I have 18 years clinical experience with a range of clients from those in everyday need with difficult life problems to people with addictions, depression, trauma,  and the issues that arise from relocating to another country.

I have 14 years experience teaching in the field of dance movement psychotherapy across Europe, with a specialisation in developmental psychotherapy in relation to the body and movement , and attachment patterns. I have had the opportunity to lecture in some beautiful cities; London, Edinburgh, Riga, and Bucharest, and continue to lecture on the Croatian DMP training program. In 2014 my colleague and I opened our 4.5 year DMT (DMP), training program in Prague, with a wonderful international team. 

I have a love of people’s stories and the non-verbal dimension of their tales. My belief is that our movement and body sensations are just as important as our words. Our bodies hold within them a memory of everything we have ever lived through. Especially when there have been developmental wounds, attachment challenges, or traumatic experiences, I have found that working with the body – alongside verbal expression – to be an effective way to gain insights to our problems and offer a new perspective.

Psychotherapy can help people who are experiencing a crisis or more long term emotional, relational or cognitive issues. But it can also be a support for those who would like to develop themselves, get to know themselves a bit better, or just find ways in which to make better choices and feel good about life.
