“The Ego that refuses to submit to the demands of the body will eventually have to submit to the power of nature.” (By Marion Woodman, “Coming Home to Myself”)
TRE® (Tension & Trauma Release Exercise), created by David Berceli, Ph.D., uses a series of exercises to invite the body’s natural trembling response, with the aim of easing tension and supporting regulation.
How I Offer TRE
I primarily offer TRE in individual sessions, either in person or online. Occasionally, I also facilitate groups.
We typically begin with a brief introduction to TRE and a discussion of your expectations. I emphasize collaboration and respect for your individual pace. Throughout the practice, you can pause or stop at any time. Rather than striving to “do it right,” we approach your body’s responses with curiosity and discover what feels manageable for you.
My Own Journey
My training in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy deepened my interest in the relationship between body and mind and led me to explore additional approaches to body-based self-regulation.
My personal TRE practice began after I completed my RYT-200 yoga teacher training in 2016. Through Yin Yoga, I became interested in fascia and the experience of releasing bodily tension. This exploration led me to TRE and its use of the body’s natural trembling response. In 2017, I trained to become a TRE facilitator. Over the past few years, I have been grateful for the opportunity to witness people reconnect with their bodies through TRE practice.
You can find more information about what TRE is and watch Dr. Berceli’s brief video on their official website.
