- "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. " https://traumahealing.org/about-us/
