Who is Brian Mahan?
Brian Mahan is not a traditional talk therapist. He is a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, specializing in working with anxiety, PTSD, developmental trauma, shock trauma and shame.
Suffering from developmental trauma, social anxiety, self-sabotage, self-loathing, shame, low self-esteem, depression, habitual re-enactments, and 7-10 full-blown panic attacks every day, following a catastrophic car wreck, Brian sought out a means of healing. After three sessions with a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, his panic attacks stopped and he entered the three year training program to become a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner two weeks later.
Since 2004, twenty-six of my clients have become practitioners, as well. That is a true testament to the power and efficacy of this work.
For his own personal growth and desire to be more effective with his clientele, Brian has completed a 7-module training on Healing Shame with Bret Lyons, SEP, and Sheila Rubin, MA, LMFT, RDT/BCT, in Berkeley, CA. I am now certified in the Lyon/ Rubin Method for Healing Shame and have assisted them in trainings. I’ve also taken extensive training in the study of developmental trauma.
