Stephen J. Terrell, PsyD, SEP: What Actually Is Nervous System Regulation?

I am beyond grateful to have gotten to share this time with my teacher and mentor, Stephen Terrell. I’ve been eager to get this episode out since we recorded it last month.  Can’t wait to hear your thoughts.

I’m often asked “how is THIS nervous system regulation work different from other regulation work?” and “HOW does it actually work?” and so many other questions.  If you want to hear more about how this deep trauma healing modality was created from the man who created it, now’s the time! 

Join me as I sit down with Stephen J. Terrell, PsyD, SEP, a renowned expert in the field of nervous system regulation work. In this conversation, we delve into the intricacies of this practice and explore its profound impact on healing and wellness. Together, we attempt to demystify the concept of nervous system regulation work as we ask, what exactly does it entail? In an attempt to answer this question, we explore: 

  • The distinction between working with a trained practitioner versus engaging in guided nervous system regulation practices on our own

  • The relationship between faith and science in nervous system regulation work

  • Practical insights and techniques to help these professionals navigate the demands of their work while maintaining their own well-being

  • Why self-regulation is vital for creating safe and grounded spaces for clients and how practitioners can cultivate this skill both in and out of sessions

  • How to find a skilled practitioner in the field of nervous system regulation work
