Somatic Experiencing is a body-based approach to healing symptoms caused by unresolved trauma. This modality was created by Peter Levine after his years studying both physiological responses in non-domesticate animals and human healing practices used across cultures. What modern traumatologists such as Peter Levine and Bessel Van Der Kolk (Author of "The Body Keeps The Score") have shown us is that trauma exists and remains in the Autonomic Nervous System and therefore cannot be healed through talking alone.
My training in this model has changed not only the way I address working with all my clients but my own life overall. It is a gift to help Shepard people back to the inherent healing wisdom that is the birthright of all humans and can be accessed through our bodies intelligence if we create the right conditions.
In addition to completing the 3 year long training in Somatic Experiencing, I also Coordinate and Assist in the training of new practitioners across interdisciplinary fields.
