SEI's process for issuing SEP and Provisional SEP Certificate Approvals has undergone a modern update! Upon approval, SEPs will now be emailed an official PDF copy of their certificate with a new digital seal. The digital seal is official and legally binding, which will meet licensing boards’ requirements. Students are welcome to print the certificate on whatever paper works best for them – it prints beautifully on plain paper as well as resume quality paper or cardstock.
Our learning and knowledge library has a wealth of valuable, relevant webinars from leaders in the SE field. All webinars in the membership portal are free for members to stream. To take advantage of this learning library, join SEI.

With Guy Macpherson
Guy Macpherson's Trauma Therapist Podcast
"This is one of those episodes that makes you say to yourself, 'Yes, this is why I’m a therapist!' Jeanna Gomez, LCSW is my guest today and she’s truly what this podcast is all about: she’s dedicated her life to helping individuals who’ve been impacted by trauma; she’s super smart; and she’s beyond inspirational. I’m confident you’ll enjoy this interview with her."
Watch Maria Menounos interview SEP Brian Mahan on her YouTube Show Better Together. Brian discusses how Somatic Experiencing heals trauma as Maria reflects on how Brian has helped her work through her own trauma using SE.
Mental Wellness In the Line of Duty: Supporting Public Safety Professionals

In this month’s SE Community Conversation, we recognize the 20th anniversary of 9/11. Come hear a dynamic panel discuss the unique neurophysiology of emergency responders, hear about the hidden challenges emergency responders face, and learn about resources available. This community gathering will focus on how SE, a neurobiologically based trauma resolution method, can be a resource to public safety professionals such as fire fighters and law enforcement, as well as to mental health professionals who work with these communities.
