- Today on the Soul of Life I speak to Dr. Lesley Tate-Gould, a psychotherapist that uses Somatic Experiencing to help people overcome trauma.
Lesley runs the Lido Wellness Center, an outpatient trauma and counseling practice in Newport Beach, California.
We talk about her specialization in a form of body-focused trauma treatment called Somatic Experiencing, or SE, and her experience of benefitting from SE herself.
SE was developed by Peter Levine, and like IFS therapy, deviates from the norms of traditional talk therapy and its typical cognitive and rational focus.
"Sometimes emotions are like people would rather stay away from them."
Instead, SE focuses on so-called “bottom-up” neurological processing.
"Emotions are, in their simplest form, they’re there to be felt."
We talk about how it’s possible to attend to feeling and sensation in a deep way when you aren’t narrating and talking and explaining.
"Some of these physiologically stuck features [like Turrets] are in a feedback loop and it wants to find a way out."
And we discuss our similar personal journeys, needing to be patient zero, using our own medicine.
