Somatic Experiencing (SE) is a form of alternative therapy aimed at treating trauma and stress-related disorders, such as PTSD. The primary goal of SE is to modify the trauma-related stress response through bottom-up processing. The client's attention is directed toward internal sensations, (interoception, proprioception and kinaesthesis), rather than to cognitive or emotional experiences.[1] The method was developed by Peter A. Levine.[2]
SE sessions are normally held in person and involve clients tracking their physical experiences.[3] Practitioners are often mental health practitioners such as social workers, psychologists, therapists, psychiatrists, rolfers, Feldenkrais practitioners, yoga therapists, educators, clergy, occupational therapists, etc.[4][5]
