“I’m worried I’ll do harm.”
That’s a good sign. This program trains safety, pacing, consent, and restraint as core competencies.
-
“I’ve done other trainings. Will this be redundant?”
I hear this a lot. One of my SE students told me, “When I finished SE, I felt like I was in kindergarten.” That wasn’t a criticism; it was honest. SE gives an important foundation. But it doesn’t always give people a complete system they can lean on when sessions get complex. This program is designed as the missing integration: nervous system safety + attachment + parts + completion + developmental rhythms, taught in a way that translates into real facilitation. And if you’ve completed Somatic Experiencing, you can start in Level 2.
-
How long is the whole path?
Most people complete the core path (Levels 1–4) in about 12 months if they stay consistent with the trainings and practice. Some will move faster, and some will take closer to 18 months depending on life, pacing, and how much integration time they want between levels. If you choose to continue into the specialty levels (5–6), the full track is often closer to 18–24 months.
-
Do I need to complete Levels 5–6?
No. Levels 5–6 are specialty/advanced. Core certification is Levels 1–4.

A structured, practice-forward training in nervous system facilitation, attachment + parts work, completion, developmental rhythms, and grounded “field” awareness. Plus a clear path to build a practice that doesn’t rely on the old gatekeepers.
A multi-level certification that teaches you how to work with:
- Safety + capacity (so you don’t outrun the body)
Polarity + oscillation (attention as a steering wheel)
Attachment + parts (without story-only work)
Activation patterns (fight/flight/freeze/collapse/fawn)
Completion and protective responses (done with precision)
Developmental rhythms and character patterns (without shaming labels)
Energy body awareness (grounded, non-bypass, scope-clear)
And for those who want it, an optional practice-building track:
How to build a steady stream of aligned clients through your personal brand, without politics, pushing, or giving your work away for free.
This is nervous system mastery framed as power with the nervous system, not power over it.
What this is not
- Not psychotherapy training
- Not diagnosis or treatment
- Not a weekend “somatic tools” grab bag
- Not a catharsis-first approach
- Not breathwork-first facilitation
- Not spiritual bypassing
- Not influencer-style marketing
This is a very special chance to be part of a movement at the ground level. To recieve real mentorship from someone who has been in the inner circles at the top level of the somatic field. I've helped train hundreds of somatic practitioners in other approaches and I can safely say that this program fills the gaps and brings the depth that most others are missing. This is a full comprehensive training in my life's work so that you can become a highly competent, well rounded, and deep practitioner.
This training is set up as a coaching and practitioner program designed to produce real competence, ethical restraint, and (if you choose the business track) a practice that’s actually sustainable.

Clearing stuck charge so the body can actually listen
Innate intelligence: how to follow what wants to unfold
Somatic memory reconsolidation + reorganization
Level 4 (Hybrid): Developmental Pulse & Character Rhythms
Developmental tasks, rhythms, and integration
Your developmental pulse model (eyes → core → pelvis/shoulders → split → heart/pelvis integration)
Erikson-style questions mapped somatically (“Is the world safe?” “Can I digest life?” “Is it safe to express?” etc.)
Laban/Kestenberg rhythms (harsh/soft fluctuations)
Somatic completion of developmental tasks
Physical retraining as integration (not overriding)

FAQ
A practice that doesn’t depend on politics
A lot of good practitioners are tired.
Tired of gatekeeping.
Tired of networking games.
Tired of being told you need to jump through more hoops, get permission, or the right relationships to have access to the deeper systems and ways of understanding somatic work.
Many are tired of giving your work away for less than it's worth because you don’t know how to talk about it.
I built my practice differently.
I’ve grown a personal brand around nervous system education that reaches the right people, consistently.
I keep a waitlist without chasing clients, without manipulating, and without compromising the work.
That’s why this training includes an optional module on visibility and practice-building.
Not “marketing tricks.”
A real system for putting your gifts in service of people who need them.
Instructor & Story Behind Trauma Alchemy: Daniel Vose, MA, SEP
Somatic Educator • Nervous System Specialist • Author

For the past 18+ years, I’ve devoted my life to understanding how trauma lives in the body, and how people actually change.
I hold a master’s degree in Somatic Psychology. I’m a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner. And I’ve taught trauma and attachment work to therapists, healers, and helping professionals.
But what shaped my frameworks most was not studying.
It was sitting in real rooms with real people.
I’ve done 1:1 work and worked in treatment centers for more than a decade. I’ve watched what helps people come back into their bodies, and what quietly makes things worse. I’ve seen the difference between someone understanding a concept and someone being able to apply it in the exact moment a nervous system tips into overwhelm.
That gap is a big reason I created this live training.
Because right now, I see too many new practitioners getting burned out.
They give away their work for free, hoping it leads to something later. They take trainings that are dense and impressive on paper, but light on real practice. They end up with a lot of theory, and not enough confidence. Then a client gets flooded, collapses, or spins into panic and the practitioner freezes. Not because they’re bad, but because nobody trained them for the moment.
I also see a marketing problem in this field.
A lot of marketing is either too aggressive to be ethical, or so soft and vague that it doesn’t reach the people it’s meant to serve. Many practitioners hate the “game” so much that they hide, over-give, or rely on politics and referrals. Meanwhile, their work is genuinely needed.
This training is my attempt to solve that whole picture.
A structured system that teaches you how to work with nervous system activation safely, and actually practice it until it lives in your hands. And for those who want it, a way to share your work publicly without selling your soul, so you can reach the right people and stop giving everything away.
Where this work began for me is personal.
At 12 years old, my system was in collapse.
I was addicted. I couldn’t focus. My body was overloaded with panic, migraines, dissociation, and a constant sense of danger. I felt like I was disappearing.
By 14, I was in 12-step meetings, surrounded by people drowning in trauma. And I began to see something clearly.
Addiction wasn’t the root problem. The nervous system was.
That realization started an obsession. I studied trauma physiology, recovery, somatic work, meditation, and attachment. I rebuilt my life from the inside out, one small piece of capacity at a time.
Years later, working in treatment centers, I sat with hundreds of people a year at the edge of their trauma. Frozen. flooded. collapsed. terrified. unable to stop running from what they carried.
It was there that the framework I now teach came together.
Not as a philosophy, but as something practical.
A system that is gentle enough for sensitive nervous systems, and specific enough to guide you when things get intense. A way of working that respects the intelligence of the body, and does not try to force healing through intensity.
Today

Today, I live a life I once thought was impossible.
I’m present. connected. sober. grounded. I’m married. I do work I love. And I get to help people reshape patterns they once thought were permanent.
If you’re here because you want to become the kind of practitioner who can stay steady, help people safely, and build a sustainable practice without politics or burnout, that’s why I made this.
