Somatic Experiencing Trauma Institute:

Trauma may be a fact of life, but it doesn’t have to be a life sentence. Somatic Experiencing is a psychobiological method of addressing clients’ physical and emotional trauma conditions, and helps to give voice to their experiences without a need for them to retell the story. For more information please visit: https://traumahealing.org/kser

Dr. Muller is a Fellow of the International Society for the Study of Trauma & Dissociation (ISSTD) for his work on trauma treatment. His new book is Trauma & The Struggle to Open Up, and his therapy bestseller, Trauma & the Avoidant Client, has been translated widely, and won the 2011 ISSTD award for the year's best written work on trauma. 

As lead investigator on several multi-site programs to treat interpersonal trauma, Dr. Muller has lectured internationally (Australia, UK, Europe, USA), and has been keynote speaker at mental health conferences in New Zealand and Canada. His online magazine, "The Trauma & Mental Health Report," is visited by over 100,000 readers a year.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-trauma-therapist-podcast-with-guy-macpherson-phd-inspiring-interviews-with-thought-leaders-in-the-field-of-trauma/exclusive-content
