Somatic Experiancing (SE)

Somatic experiencing is a body-centered therapy aimed at relieving the symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder and other mental and physical trauma-related health problems by focusing on the client's perceived body sensations.

​

Experiencing the sensations related to the traumatic event in a safe way allows a person to fully process the trauma. Clients also achieve heightened awareness of their physical responses to stress and anxiety and this skill can serve them in everyday life.
