What is Somatic Experiencing?
Somatic Experiencing, developed by Dr. Peter Levine, is focused on healing shock trauma. It is based on the understanding that trauma does not live in the event itself, but in the frozen survival energy that remains stored in the nervous system.
Through ‘pendulation’ (moving between tension and safety) and ‘titration’ (working in small, manageable steps), I help your body release this stuck energy in a safe and controlled way. This allows your nervous system to find its natural balance again.

I work from a place of trust in your resilience. Together, with genuine curiosity, we explore what you’re looking for. We create a space where everything that seems to be in the way can show itself and be met with warmth and understanding. When what is “old” in you is felt and understood in connection, healing arises — and you can move forward. There is now room for something new.

Why Somatic Experiencing?
Many people try to resolve trauma through thinking and analysis. SE recognizes that trauma is a bodily process. Rather than talking about the event, you learn to listen to the language of your body.
It is a gentle, respectful approach that helps the nervous system ‘complete’ what it started (fighting, fleeing, or freezing), leading to deep and lasting relief.
Who is this suitable for?
Somatic Experiencing is highly effective if you still feel the impact of shocking events in your daily life. It is especially valuable when you…
Experience unexplained tension or stress
Struggle to relax
Feel ‘frozen’ or constantly on high alert
Want to process a specific trauma (accident, surgery, loss)
The consultation is always free — no strings attached!
Ehsan Ebadi
What can Somatic Experiencing bring you?
If you feel stuck in survival patterns, SE can be truly liberating. It’s not about reliving pain, but about unlocking your natural resilience. Together, we create the safety your nervous system needs to relax and help you feel whole again.
I help you with, among other things:
A greater sense of safety in your own body
Better sleep and more energy
Fewer triggers and less panic
I follow online body-oriented therapy with Ehsan and I am very satisfied. Ehsan creates a safe atmosphere in which I can share openly. He listens in a way that makes me feel genuinely heard and understood, while also asking exactly the right questions to help me get out of my head and connect more with what I feel physically and emotionally. Through this I discover a great deal about my emotions, my own needs, and what I truly want. What strikes me is how skilled Ehsan is at picking up signals from my posture even through an online video call, which makes the sessions incredibly effective. Compared to previous therapies, I have made far more progress here. I wholeheartedly recommend his body-oriented therapy.

Ehsan created a calm and safe setting that allowed me to access different layers of my feelings. He had a real sense of me and asked exactly the questions I needed to understand myself better.

The sessions with Ehsan were a truly special experience. They gave me a safe space to connect with myself and with emotions I wasn’t consciously aware of. His calm way of guiding made it easy for me to understand my own unconscious patterns.

The sessions with Ehsan are remarkable experiences. Through the SE sessions and my contact with Ehsan, I’ve become calmer, stronger, and more self-aware. Ehsan creates the time and space to really experience your body and emotions. Working together with him, I gain greater insight into how I function — my body, my thoughts — what I need, and I’m learning to pursue my life goals with more intention.

I am very happy with the therapy I received from Ehsan. For me it was the first time that I felt really safe during therapeutic sessions. This had a positive influence on the quality of the sessions. All so we had quite a few online sessions. Although I was a little sceptic on forehand, we reached the same quality in the sessions. Ehsan is really good in focusing on the details. It made that I could really feel what was going on in my body and mind. Thank you so much for this Ehsan!
Wessel
Client 2025
When I started working with Ehsan, I have already done lots of somatic work and wasn’t sure how much value I would get from the work. It’s been more than 2 years and now I consider working with Ehsan a big and regular part of my ongoing healing journey. His ability to combine multiple modalities stood out, and helped me go deep into levels I haven’t explored before. I definitely recommend Ehsan’s work!

Frequently asked questions about Somatic Experiencing
Browse our frequently asked questions (FAQ)
What exactly is Somatic Experiencing (SE)?
Somatic Experiencing is a body-oriented method for healing trauma and chronic stress. Rather than talking about the event, we focus on bodily sensations (felt sense). We help your body safely release stored survival energy (tension) that has become stuck.
Do I have to relive my trauma?
No, absolutely not. In SE, avoiding retraumatization is essential. We work in small steps (‘titration’) and move between tension and relaxation. We stay in the here and now and follow the pace of your body, so your system is never overwhelmed.
What complaints does Somatic Experiencing help with?
SE is effective for both shock trauma (e.g. an accident or surgery) and developmental trauma (neglect or feeling unsafe during childhood). It helps with complaints such as anxiety, panic attacks, chronic pain, migraines, and feelings of hypervigilance or emotional numbness.
Does body-oriented therapy also work online?
Absolutely. Even via a screen, I can guide you in connecting with your body. Because you’re in your own familiar environment, many clients actually feel safer to tune in to what’s happening inside. We can work effectively on self-regulation and relaxation. Feel free to schedule a free introductory session to discuss this.
