​
What is Somatic Experiencing (SE)?
​
-
SE is a body-oriented approach to healing trauma and stress that focuses on releasing accumulated physical tension and restoring the body's natural regulatory processes.
-
It helps individuals resolve trauma by working with the body's natural responses to stress, such as fight, flight, or freeze, which can become stuck in the body when a traumatic experience is not fully resolved.
-
SE recognizes that trauma can impact the nervous system and lead to physical and emotional dysregulation, and it offers techniques to help the body release those stored energies and restore a sense of safety and well-being.
