Nicky Englebright

My name is Nicky Englebright and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina. I came to Somatic Experiencing over 6 years ago with a theoretical understanding of the importance of including the body. I had an immense desire to learn more due to feeling as though I was working with one hand behind my back by not including the body in my work with clients. Somatic Experiencing has proven to be invaluable to my work with my clients as well as my own personal work. In my experience, it has allowed for the possibility to open doors into deeper processing, while also doing this gently and within an individual’s capacity. I find joy in being able to be curious about the inner world and experiences of others. I am also certified in Brainspotting and enjoy being able to combine these modalities to further facilitate the deeper processing within a foundation of emotional regulation. In my work with clients, I specialize in healing trauma, complex trauma, and dissociation. I am an inherently curious person and gain immeasurable pleasure from learning and forming meaningful relationships. In my free time, I take pleasure in spending time with my animals, people I care about, and being in nature. I love to read and cook. I have the hope to be a life-long learner.
