This paper considers the potential of bidirectional, nonverbal (procedural) enactments for effecting therapeutic change. Whether such nonverbal enactments need to be symbolized for clinical change to occur is discussed. Clinical and conceptual material is presented which indicates that changes in self-representations can and do occur without the need for verbal symbolization.
