Somatic Experiencing : våra lärare i sverige ...
Vi presenterar här de SE lärare som är relevanta för oss här i Sverige. De undervisar på sin egen nivå - vissa på Beginning och Intermediate - andra uteslutande på Advanced. De pratar och undervisar alla på engelska - eftersom vi antar att alla studenter förstår engelska kommer det inte att översättas till svenska. Dock kan studentarna tala svenska till varandra under övningarna.
