Somatic Experiencing (SE) is a body-based therapy approach aimed at resolving symptoms arising from traumatic stress. It emphasizes the regulation of the nervous system through the exploration and release of physical sensations that are associated with traumatic memories. The goal of SE is to help individuals gain mastery over their symptoms and return to a state of balance and resilience. SE seeks to promote healing by focusing on the present moment and utilizing the natural regulatory processes of the body to resolve the impacts of past traumatic experiences.
According to Dr. Peter Levine, the founder of Somatic Experiencing (SE),
“I have come to the conclusion that human beings are born with an innate capacity to triumph over trauma. I believe not only that trauma is curable, but that the healing process can be a catalyst for profound awakening—a portal opening to emotional and genuine spiritual transformation.”
Dr. Peter Levine wrote several books on this subject. If you want to learn more, a link to the books can be found at the bottom of the page.
