Somatic Experiencing® in Dresden and online.

Somatic Experiencing® in
Dresden Neustadt.

Somatic Experiencing views the body as an important source of information for processing distressing experiences. In doing so, we listen not only to the story that can be told in words, but also to the story that the body reveals.

— the approach

How Somatic Experiencing® works.

Somatic Experiencing® (SE) is a body-centered therapeutic approach developed by Peter Levine, in which the autonomic nervous system is the central focus.

In the sessions, we direct our attention to bodily sensations and inner perceptions. In doing so, we move mindfully between different states and experiences, so that your nervous system can experience new possibilities of regulation.

It is not about reliving the past. It is about sensing your body in the here and now—what sensations and impulses might show up. It is also about gathering emotions, images (abstract or from memory), and also thoughts/insights. And it is about sensing what you need and seeing what new experiences become possible. We proceed step-by-step, always with the intention of finding the right pace.

— Welcome to my practice

It's wonderful to have you here.
I am Susanne Reinhold.

I am Susanne Reinhold, a psychotherapist and trauma therapist with my own private practice in Dresden Neustadt.

"Trauma is not a destiny. The body, not the thinking brain, is the place where we experience most of our pain, pleasure, and joy, and where we process most of what happens to us. It is also the place where we do most of our healing."
