Peter A Levine, Ph.D., is the developer of Somatic Experiencing®, a naturalistic and neurobiological approach to healing trauma, which he has developed during the past 50 years. He is the Founder of the Somatic Experiencing® Trauma Institute/Foundation for Human Enrichment and the Founder and President of the Ergos Institute of Somatic Education™. His work has been taught to over 50,000 therapists in over 45 countries. Dr. Levine served as a stress consultant for NASA in the early space shuttle development and has served on the American Psychological Association task force for responding to the trauma of large-scale disasters and ethnopolitical warfare. He holds doctorates in both Biophysics and Psychology and is the author of several best-selling books on trauma, including Waking the Tiger, which is published in over 29 languages. He is currently a Senior Fellow and consultant at The Meadows Addiction and Trauma Treatment Center in Wickenburg, Arizona and continues to teach trauma healing workshops internationally.
Arrived in Brazil as a missionary in 1993, I worked for 5 years with women who suffered from violence using mental health programs in the periphery of the city of João Pessoa, Brazil.
In the year 2000, I co- founded two NGOs. One is Bamidele — Black women’s organization that helped the black women fight against racism while taking care of their self-esteem and their health. The second NGO named Afya — Women Holistic Healing center — worked with Holistic healing methods for the communities in the periphery of the city. As a general coordinator, in the past 20 years, I offered body workers professions through a variety of trainings for the community leaders who received certificates for holistic healing practices such as Reiki, therapeutic massages, Bio digital method of diagnosis, reflexology, mud therapy ( the use of earth for healing) and herbal medicines. And for the past 10 years I have been teaching Family Constellation (trans-generational trauma healing) and Somatic Experiencing® (SE™) for trauma resolution in Brazil and other parts of the world. Two years ago I was asked by Dr. Peter A Levine, the developer of SE™, to join his Legacy Faculty to assist him and teach his Master Classes.
Joshua Sylvae, PhD has been involved in the field of somatics since 2003. His study of nervous system regulation has incorporated inquiry into many disparate fields including ecology, philosophy, and neurobiology. He holds an MA in clinical psychology (with an emphasis in somatic psychology), a PhD in Higher Learning and Social Change, and is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. Joshua’s clinical practice is grounded in Somatic Experiencing® (SE™), and he also integrates psychodynamic perspectives, mindfulness approaches, a systemic orientation, and a good deal of humor in his work. He is a faculty member at the SE Trauma Institute, leading the SE Professional Training in locations around the world, and is also a Legacy Faculty member at Dr. Peter A Levine’s Ergos Institute for Somatic Education.
Joshua’s background includes participation in social change efforts, movements for social equality and ecological sustainability, and he maintains a passion for encouraging and assisting communities working toward the creation of a just and healthful society. In 2019, Joshua launched The (r)evolve Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to educating the general public about human origins, and he currently serves as the organization’s Executive Director. He envisions somatics becoming an integral part of healing and transforming our world, and feels greatly inspired when helping professionals integrate these simple principles for treating and transforming trauma and distress.
