                    In just 15 years, Dr Peter Levine’s Somatic Experiencing® trauma therapy has reached 25 countries. Britain is now among them.


                    Formed in 2009, the Somatic Experiencing Association UK (SEA UK) is the professional, impartial focal point for SE in the UK. It aims to:
                    • Raise awareness of Somatic Experiencing (SE®) among therapy professionals and the public
                    • Maintain a registry of UK-based SE® practitioners
                    • Be the main information source for those interested in SE® trauma therapy in Britain.

                    Our chairperson is Penny Boyland (BSc., Lic. Ac., SEP)

                    We are a voluntary organisation. If you’d like to offer your expertise to help us achieve our aims, we’d be delighted to hear from you at info@seauk.org.uk
