[Burned-out or stimulated? - professional experience of body-oriented psychotherapists based on therapists for concentrative movement therapy (KBT)].

The results of 91 therapists, trained in Concentrative Movement Therapy (KBT), in the "Development of Psychotherapist Common Core Questionnaire (DPCCQ)" are compared to the therapists' results in other DPCCQ-studies, to find out whether there are differences in professional experiences. It is shown that KBT-therapists agree with other therapists concerning a positive valuation of their professional development and competence but they have more currently experienced flow. Similarities to other therapists predominate in regard to working morale, burn-out, difficulties and coping strategies in the therapeutic practice too. A few special features for KBT-therapists can be found which seem to reflect characteristic aspects of the method.
