Abstract
This Capstone research project focuses on evaluating the effectiveness of Somatic Experiencing, a body-based approach, to treating post-traumatic stress disorder. I used a systematic review method, a scientific and rigorous approach, in establishing and evaluating the evidence regarding the effectiveness of somatic experiencing to add to the evidence-based decision-making research in health care. I discussed a variety of treatment approaches to treatment of PTSD and how each of them works neuroscientifically and the advantages and drawbacks of the two established approaches. Finally, I used a systematic review approach to collect information, synthesize it, and analyze it to establish evidence on whether somatic experiencing is effective in treating post-traumatic stress disorder among diverse populations, located in various settings.
