Exploring the Essential Features of “Peter Levine – Resolving Trauma in Psychotherapy: A Somatic Approach”
Resolving Trauma in Psychotherapy: A Somatic Approach
by Peter Levine
Watch a true master, Dr. Peter A. Levine, demonstrate a course of body-oriented trauma therapy in this extremely compelling and in-depth video with an Iraq Veteran diagnosed with severe PTSD.
Working with Ray’s presenting symptoms over the course of five sessions, Levine introduces a number of essential trauma resolution techniques that markedly improve Ray’s Tourette-like convulsions, as well as his overall pain and emotional outlook. Levine developed Somatic Experiencing® based on the premise that trauma overwhelms the nervous system and that it needs to be addressed somatically before emotional processing is possible. Thorough commentary by Levine, as well as an extensive interview, helps to elucidate the subtleties of his methods. You will walk away from this video with a sound understanding of this approach to trauma work. This method can be integrated with and add richness to a number of therapeutic modalities and can be used to treat all manner of trauma – from car accidents, surgeries, child abuse, experiences of violence, and so on.
WHAT THERAPISTS ARE SAYING…
“…I felt I was watching a complete combination of Milton Erickson, Wilhelm Reich, or some of his softer disciples, and Carl Rogers. The focus on each movement of the body and body energy was a delight to watch. Levine’s observational skills and ability to bring his observations respectfully into the therapeutic relationship are superb and obviously a result of years of disciplined study….For those who work somatically, this video set will both encourage, as you observe skills you already use, and inspire, as you see new and more advanced possibilities available for your work. For those whose trauma work has thus far not allowed a somatic perspective, these sessions will open the door to more effective and powerful ways of working.”
— Doug Southeren, reviewed in Psychotherapy in Australia
