The SE 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.
Taking Somatic Experiencing® sessions will help create a more resilient nervous system, less prone to stress and more capable of bouncing back quickly if that does happen. During the sessions you will learn to recognise signs that the body’s defence responses are activated and learn simple and effective tools to help regulate those responses.
Here are some of the symptoms and syndromes you can use Somatic Experiencing® to work with:
- Anxiety, fear, phobias and panic attacks
- Acute stress and feelings of overwhelm
- Anger, rage and conflict
- Insomnia and nightmares
- IBS and Digestive Problems
- General and specific social anxiety
- Obsessions and OCD
- Muscle pains and weakness
- Breathing problems
- Hyper-vigilance
- Involuntary tics, jerks and contractions
- Exhaustion and chronic fatigue
- Fibromyalgia
- Amnesia, forgetfulness and being “spaced out”.

- Who should avoid it? Under 18? Pregnant? Allergies and phobias? : SE may not be suitable for individuals with severe psychiatric conditions such as psychosis or certain personality disorders, where grounding in the physical sensations could lead to heightened dysregulation or dissociation. It's also approached cautiously in cases of severe post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) where rapid processing might re-traumatize rather than heal. Moreover, individuals with a history of seizures or neurological issues should consult healthcare professionals before starting SE, as intense somatic focus could potentially trigger neurological responses.
