As an act of reparation and reconciliation with the BIPOC and LGBTQ2S+ communities, efforts are being made to expand access to the practice of Somatic Experiencing® by offering scholarship opportunities in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

Research demonstrates that trust, safety, and connection in the therapeutic relationship are more easily established for Black, Indigenous, People of Colour, and LGBTQ2S+ individuals when the therapist shares their cultural and/or ethnic background. In light of this, making SE™ training more accessible to BIPOC and LGBTQ2S+ practitioners will create more equitable access to treatment in our communities.

The full training costs approximately $13000 making this financially inaccessible to many people.

Please help us support the next generation of SE practitioners.
