Somatic Experiencing
(SE)
SE
(Somatic Experiencing) is a body based approach that seeks to work with the nervous system and all of it's states of being.
This healing modality differs from traditional therapy in that it seeks to help the participant learn about how trauma impacts how we view our environment and where we have had our survival isntincs stifled by fight or flight, as well as collapse.
In addition to SE, I provide healing touch which in my practice is a combination of what I learned about body work and touch from the somatic experiencing lense, as well as from Indigenous Healer Dr. Mehl-Madrona who practices Cherokee hands-on work. Healing touch can include narrative therapy as well by way of hearing a story from me, or you telling me yours while we explore where things are stored in your body.
