Discussion about trauma and the autonomic nervous system
Spirit Mender, LLC offers Somatic Experiencing® for trauma recovery as well as three modalities for energy bodywork. I have completed the three year training program in Somatic Experiencing®, studying with Diane Poole-Heller, Ph.D for the first two years and Peter Levine, Ph.D during the final year. I am a fully certified Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner. I continue to study with Peter Levine and others within the SE® community at every opportunity to stay up to date with the latest techniques and discoveries.
I have been practicing Therapeutic Touch for over 25 years and studying energy systems for over 30 years. My ARCH® training has been with Kahuna Ho'okahi Laurie Grant. I am a Reiki Master Teacher with my lineage stemming from Dr. Usui and Mrs. Takata to my Reiki Master Teacher, Ann Hoyt. I am a member of Associated Bodywork and Massage Professionals.
Animals are part of my practice. I use Reiki, ARCH® and Therapeutic Touch with them. I have worked on dogs, cats, ferrets, gerbils, turtles, hermit crabs, hamsters, birds, horses, llamas, alpacas and goats. I do not charge for distance sessions on animals.

Not everyone who is involved in a traumatic event reacts in the same way. Some people are able to let the body discharge the energy that is produced during the fight or flight reaction without any help. Others may find themselves stuck in a seemingly endless loop of reliving the trauma and the body's reactions to it.
Once you allow the body to complete it's reaction and release the energy that was made available to handle the original trauma, other changes can take place. It doesn't matter how long ago the trauma was or how many layers there are, SE® may be the way to help you to work through it. Your body knows what to do. Sometimes it just needs a little help.
