What is Somatic Experiencing (SE)

Somatic Experience is a pioneering body-based approach to overcoming trauma, shock and other stress disorders.

The SEexploring-the-global-reach-of-somatic-experiencing approach aims to safely release traumatic shock ‘frozen’ in the body at times of overwhelm, allowing for a natural transformation of both PTSD and the wounds of emotional and early childhood trauma.

SE offers a way to explore where a person is “stuck” in the stressful fight, flight or freeze responses, and provides practical clinical tools to resolve these fixated physiological states. It teaches simple, effective skills that mobilise the body’s innate self-healing systems – the same physiological processes that mend broken bones and fight disease.

As a trainee Somatic Experiencing practitioner, I am passionate about helping people heal from their emotional traumas by connecting with their bodies and regulating their nervous systems. I provide a safe, non-judgmental, and supportive space for my clients to cultivate self-awareness, explore their emotions, and develop new coping mechanisms.
