Somatic Experiencing provides a gentle and powerful mind/body approach to trauma resolution. Working in a natural, non-office, setting provides a “world” of resources to weave into sessions. The responsive presence and participation of the horse(s) in session provides an amazing connection to the client’s experience. They are agents of physiological change: as a mediator and expression of escalation and calming.
