Somatic Experiencing®
Somatic Experiencing® (SE®) is a form of therapy aimed at relieving and resolving the symptoms Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and other mental and physical trauma-related health problems by focusing on the client’s perceived body sensations (or somatic experiences).
SE® provides a holistic and brief strategy to achieve healing and resolution of trauma or emotional wounds. This method is founded on the research that although wild animals are often threatened, they rarely show signs of trauma. These animals rely on inner resources that allow them to develop and maintain a level sense of being and productivity in the aftermath of a traumatic experience. SE® relies on the development and utilization of one's innate inner resources and then targets the Autonomic Nervous System’s ability to regulate and restore itself to balance in order to bring resolution to traumatic events.
