SEP-certified LMFT Vida Somatic Therapy in Point Loma's Sunset Cliffs neighborhood applies Peter Levine's body-based trauma-resolution method from its Rosecrans Street office in San Diego. The SE protocol teaches clients to identify fight-flight-freeze responses retained in the nervous system and discharge stored survival energy — a body-based trauma pathway that runs parallel to the talk-therapy modality at Potentia Therapy and targets the physiological dimension those approaches leave unaddressed. Active memberships in Postpartum Support International and Somatic Experiencing International reflect a clinical focus on perinatal mental health, treating postpartum anxiety, postpartum depression, and birth trauma through the somatic lens. The practice also serves children and adolescents with SE-informed sessions for behavioral regulation and social challenges, often coordinating with Point Loma counseling providers including Modern Counseling San Diego when parents in the same family system need concurrent individual support. The most intensive clinical work involves multi-session somatic trauma resolution for birth trauma, guiding mothers through the physiological discharge of emergency responses retained from complicated labor and delivery.
