 Dr Peter Levine’s gentle, intuitive approach to overcoming trauma is transforming lives
Waking the Tiger by Peter Levine
Peter's seminal book 'Waking The Tiger' reveals why this powerful animal is the SE mascot
SE is a pioneering body-oriented approach to healing trauma and other stress symptoms. Difficult experiences can either keep us shut down and stuck or be used wisely to make us stronger and happier. ​ 

Somatic Experiencing (SE) engages the “Living Body"
SE teaches that trauma is not caused by the event itself, but develops by the 'failure' of the body, mind, soul and nervous system to process extreme adverse events.​

It empowers us to ourselves do the freeing work of overcoming our hurt, anger and pain. 
 And offers the opportunity to engage, complete and resolve -- in a safe, progressive way -- the body’s fight, flight, freeze and collapse instinctual responses.

True transformation
Where traditional talking therapy may be said to have scratched the surface of untangling her from the harrowing symptoms of complex trauma, SE met Maggie at her core with elegant simplicity. "You've completely changed," observed her mam. 
​
​How does SE work?
Focused on the felt-sense (body) above thoughts and emotions (mind), SE encourages us to listen closely to all of ourselves, without judgement – and starts with helping us feel truly safe.

​With skilful listening, innate new possibilities for recovery and wholeness are revealed. SE helps gradually shift lanes from living a life governed by the past to leading a rich new life rooted in the now, open to the limitless possibilities for good ahead.

FAQ

How many sessions will I need?
Since each person is unique, there's no way to say for certain. You can, however, look forward to feeling more regulated from the first session.

Many clients experience shifts within weeks, and have sessions for months, sometimes years, depending on the severity of their traumas. You will know how many is enough for you.
​
How often to you recommend having sessions?
Initially, weekly or fortnightly is necessary to build a 'container' to counterbalance the fractured nature of trauma.

Several clients, at a certain point, enjoy having 'top up' sessions as and when they feel they need them.
