Seth Lyon
Seth Lyon is a somatic trauma specialist with a private practice in the Lower Mainland, BC. He’s trained extensively in Somatic Experiencing, the groundbreaking work of Dr. Peter Levine, which works to restore goodness and vitality at the core level where trauma takes root – the nervous system. Seth is also trained in an offshoot of SE called Somatic Practice, a form of touch work developed by Kathy Kain, which is especially effective for working with early, developmental, and complex trauma. Seth combines this intricate nervous system and stress physiology work with energy work, elements of shamanism, and sound healing. At the core of his practice is the knowledge that all people have the capacity to heal, and that this capacity has its foundation in understanding how to first listen to, and then work with, each unique human system.
Jennifer Greer
Jen teaches people around the globe how to transform experiences of early trauma.
She loves to witness this alchemical process where lifelong experiences of anxiety, depression and disconnection give way to experiences of contentment, connection, and a sense of purpose and possibility – even and especially when it’s hard to believe this can be possible.
Jen has a degree from Yale University, is a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP), certified Gestalt practitioner, and long time student of yoga. She’s also taken Master Classes with Peter Levine, studied with Aline LaPierre and Ray Castellino, and assists trainings with Kathy Kain and Stephen Terrell. She currently lives in the Pennsylvania countryside, is in the third year of training in the Feldenkrais Method, and enjoys playing games, time in nature, and hanging out with the people in her life.
Mara Yale
Mara maintains a private practice in Eastern Massachusetts and online, helping children and adults who have neurological difficulties, pain, or seek greater regulation to navigate life and its many transitions. In her twenties, she used Feldenkrais to ease sports-induced chronic shoulder pain. After completing professional Feldenkrais training, her younger child had a stroke at birth. Mara applied principles of neuroplasticity to foster her child’s remarkable recovery. She now helps other families navigate life after early neurological or developmental challenges.
Mara brings scientific inquiry and collaboration to her work based on prior careers in geophysics and software engineering. Mara is a Guild Certified Feldenkrais Practitioner, Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, trained in Hand in Hand Parenting, and holds a Ph.D. in geophysics. Mara cofounded Cerebral Palsy Soccer New England, and chairs two parent boards pioneering pediatric stroke research and education. She played ice hockey through college and now coaches her children’s teams. She lives near Boston with her two children.
Rebecca Roman
Rebecca has been passionate about the human potential to heal and transcend adversity since she was a child, due to her own health issues and familial patterns. Her studies began in her teens, and she is currently a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, a 2nd generation Guild Certified Feldenkrais Practitioner, an Anat Baniel Method Practitioner, and an Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher. Her yoga studies began in 1998 with many teachers including Judith Lasater. She has taught through out the United States and abroad.
Rebecca did her Feldenkrais training with Anat Baniel who specializes in work with children. She has 10 years of extensive training with Francois Combeau, a
Feldenkrais Trainer, who takes the method to the next level by correlating one’s internal physiology and external biology. She completed her advanced Somatic
Experiencing training with Kathy Kain, and looks forward to more training with her in the future. Rebecca has been studying and being trained in German New Medicine/Germanic healing Knowledge the last few years, as this perspective compliments the nervous system work.
Rebecca has a private practice working with anyone willing to learn and become an advocate for themselves and their nervous system. From newborns and children with special needs and developmental trauma, to adults with a variety of issues. She takes special interest in chronic illnesses such as autoimmune issues, and how spiritual healing can be more accessible through nervous system rewiring. Rebecca interweaves her knowledge and experience, utilizing her array of skills to help the individual.
