Samvedam Bettina Randles - Inner Arts Institute

About Samvedam...

Samvedam Bettina Randles, Dipl. Psych. is a German Psychologist who graduated from Wilhelms-University in Muenster, Germany.  In the US she is licensed as a mental health counselor and as a bodyworker.  After training in traditional Psychology, her interest and curiosity led her to spend several years in India.  With Osho, she studied and experienced the Eastern approaches to inner growth and transformation, plumbing her own depths and integrating these teachings into her work with clients. 

Breathwork

Trained in Wilhelm Reich's methods of body oriented Psychotherapy, Samvedam learned to combine breath work with deep tissue massage work (Postural Integration) and became certified by The National Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork.  She then co-founded the Center for Body Oriented Psychotherapy in Somerville, MA.  Additionally, Samvedam worked as a trainer for the International Breath Institute, Colorado and eventually designed her own breath training which she has been conducting since 2003. 


Family Constellations

To continue to grow her personal and professional edge, Samvedam studied the systemic work of Bert Hellinger, Family Constellations, and is a graduate of the Hellinger Institute USA.  This work has touched her deeply, and she incorporates the constellation approach in her work with individuals and couples in addition to leading participant and training groups. 

She explains that Family Constellation work, while well known in Europe, is lesser known in the United States.  And since she believes so strongly in the value of this modality, she seeks to share it with as many people as possible.  "This work allows you to see a much bigger piece of family history then a single traumatic incident, and with the wider lens comes greater understanding and compassion.  Constellation work does not focus on who is to blame.  It is much more about where is energy not moving well?  Where is love not flowing well?  Then looking at how to re-establish that flow..."  View a short video of Samvedam speaking about the benefits of Family Constellation work.


Inner Arts Institute

With this wealth of education and experience, Samvedam founded the Inner Arts Institute.  Through the Inner Arts, she supports clients with her individual and family therapy practice.  In group settings she leads Family Constellations and Intensive Breathwork classes.  And shares her knowledge by training and supervising others in the disciplines of breathwork and constellations.  If you would like to work with Samvedam, please call her at 617-926-1301 or email her.


Journeys of the Spirit

Samvedam loves sacred journeys and vision quests.  Having apprenticed with Dr. Salvador Roquet and John Perkins/Llyn Roberts, she is uniquely qualified to accompany others on their inner journeys.  In 2006 she began leading an annual Journey of the Spirit, expanding consciousness through a blend of inner and outer adventures.  Her groups have included trips to Mexico, Bimini,
Costa Rica, the Sahara Desert, the Badlands of North Dakota, and coming in 2012... Egypt: Remembrances, Exploring the Mysteries
