Role you're checking

Dance/Movement Therapist

Healthcare

Dance/Movement Therapists (DMTs) use movement and embodied experience as the primary medium for psychotherapeutic intervention, drawing on Laban Movement Analysis (LMA), Bartenieff Fundamentals, and the Kestenberg Movement Profile (KMP) to assess and treat clients with autism spectrum disorder, trauma, eating disorders, Parkinson's disease, cancer-related distress, and psychiatric conditions. In India, the field is anchored by the Creative Movement Therapy Association of India (CMTAI), established by pioneer Tripura Kashyap, with institutional placements at NIMHANS, Tata Memorial Hospital palliative care, AIIMS psychiatry units, and a growing private-practice and corporate-wellness sector. Entry requires an M.A. in a relevant field plus CMTAI or ADTA (American Dance Therapy Association)-recognised certification; practitioners are trained in somatic awareness, mirror neuron theory, and group movement dynamics before independent practice.
