Somatic Experiences, also known as SE™, is a therapy method for treating trauma or stress disorders (post traumatic stress). SE™ helps release traumatic shock, providing clinical tools to resolve trauma responses for those stuck in the fight, flight, or freeze mindset. “The Somatic Experiencing approach facilitates the completion of self-protective motor responses and the release of thwarted survival energy bound in the body, thus addressing the root cause of trauma symptoms. This is approached by gently guiding clients to develop increasing tolerance for difficult bodily sensations and suppressed emotions.” (Somatic Experiencing International)
