Somatic experiencing

Somatic experiencing is a body-oriented approach focused on the healing of trauma and other stress disorders. This theoretical approach is based on the idea that individuals who have experienced trauma can be "stuck" in a fight, flight or freeze land, physiologically and psychologically. The goal of somatic experiencing is to unstick the person and help them move on with their lives by reprocessing the trauma in a safe and healthy manner. This novel program uses modern insights from neuroscience, ethology, physiology, and psychology to craft an experiential type of therapy that can ease the sometimes debilitating effects of traumatic experiences.
