Somatic Experiencing
The principle of somatic experiencing is a powerful approach to healing trauma that recognizes the importance of our nervous system in the process. Unlike traditional talk therapy, somatic experiencing targets the non-cognitive regions of the brain that store the physical sensations and emotions associated with past adverse events.

What Patients Say
“A man once went into the woods and remained in solitary meditation for four days. He wandered alone until he heard a soft, low sweet voice, singing a song. He listened and watched. He saw a beautiful little flower, swaying gracefully back and forth. He knew the song came from the little flower. Around the flower the ground was swept clean. He listened until he had learned the song“
