Somatic Experiencing Therapy

Somatic Experiencing Therapy is a body-focused approach to healing trauma. It helps individuals become aware of physical sensations and reactions associated with stress or trauma in order to release stored tension and restore emotional regulation. By gently guiding clients to notice subtle bodily signals, the therapist supports the nervous system’s natural ability to process and resolve trauma, reducing symptoms like anxiety, hypervigilance, and dissociation. This approach emphasizes safety, gradual exposure to sensations, and restoring balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems for long-term resilience.
