Glyndie Nickerson, MA, PhD, SEP, is a faculty member at Somatic Experiencing International and teaches the Beginning and Intermediate years of the SE training, as well as supporting SE students and graduates through group and individual consultations.Ìý Glyndie also teaches workshops on SE and spiritual practice, co-regulation, and grief.Ìý Trusting and learning from nature and the moment by moment unfolding of the body's wisdom has been a lifelong fascination and practice and led to an early engagement with somatic and healing approaches starting in 1993.Ìý Glyndie's SE teaching is informed by current neuropsychological research, the biopsychosocial model, object relations, attachment theory, family systems, Jungian, and relational psychoanalysis perspectives, as well as the creative and spiritual blossoming that curiously often accompanies post-traumatic growth.Ìý Her meditation practice anchors her work.

Glyndie is a graduate of Kathy Kain's touch training, former faculty of the Barbara Brennan School of Healing, and formerly a massage therapist & yoga teacher.Ìý From her work in community mental health in Western Massachusetts, as well as overseas with tsunami victims, domestic abuse survivors, and ex-political prisoners in India, Glyndie recognizes and supports awareness of collective and personal trauma due to cultural, racial, political, class, sexual orientation, and gender difference as part of the healing process.Ìý Facilitating the honoring of one's own bodily experience against the often louder backdrop of societal conditioning is a passion.
