Trauma has often been misunderstood by doctors and therapists alike, overlooked or dismissed as a key factor in our overall health. Somatic Experiencing (SE) is a highly specialized therapy that effectively treats trauma, supporting healing where the rupture has occurred - in the nervous system.

Dr. Peter Levine developed Somatic Experiencing (SE) - grounded in biology, neuroscience and psychology, with over 45 years of successful clinical application. Using SE, we will track your body's sensations to gently release survival energy held in the nervous system, renegotiating trauma and restoring the body, mind and emotions to wholeness and well-being.

SE supports your capacity to feel confident and capable, and your sense of belonging and connection. It can also improve sleep, digestion and concentration, and decrease anxiety, depression, outbursts, muscle tension, nightmares and flashbacks.
