SomatoEmotional Release Therapy

This work is based in CranioSacral therapy. Over the years therapists noticed that often when the fascia would begin to release the client would tear up, cry or laugh, i.e., some sort of emotion would be expressed at the same time. The theory developed that the emotion was causing the fascia to hold. They also found that if a client started to tell a story about their past, as the story unfolded the fascia would release.

S.E.R. allows for talking and storytelling during the CranioSacral session. The combination of both physical work and listening intently to the client allows for the tissues to move in ways that doing either on its own would not allow.

Even though S.E.R. involves talking, it is not counseling. The talking is a part of the treatment that will allow the tissues of the body to heal. If I believe that the work you are engaged with would best be handled by working with a trained Counselor or Psychologist, I may discontinue the treatment and refer you to an appropriate professional as it would be out of my scope of practice.
