Rebecca Kase founded her training and consultation practice in 2017. A longtime practitioner of EMDR Therapy and a professional educator, Rebecca recognized there was room to improve on training and continuing education for therapists. Through her business, she set out to create thorough and thoughtfully designed educational experiences and a welcoming, inclusive community for EMDR learners and trainers.
Alison Leslie, LCSW, is an EMDR therapist, EMDRIA Approved Consultant, and EMDR Basic Training Facilitator. After years of experience in Animal Assisted Services, a desire to help her clients find deep and sustainable healing with or without an animal present — and to help them listen to and change the patterns inside their bodies — led Alison to EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, and Transforming Touch.
Along the way she has shared her knowledge at the University of Denver, Institute For Human Animal Connection Certificate program, animal assisted services small group and individual consultation, and as an approved EMDR consultant through EMDRIA (EMDR International Association).

Rebecca M. Stahl is the interim Executive Director at SE® International and brings a unique blend of legal expertise and trauma-informed practice to their role. As a Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner (SEP™), Rebecca infuses the organization’s approach with a deep understanding of how trauma affects individuals, families, and systems.
This perspective is particularly valuable given SEI’s work with vulnerable populations. A non-cishet Jewish person, Rebecca believes in the power of community as a focal point for growth and healing. This philosophy and their Somatic Experiencing® expertise underpin their leadership at SE™ International. They work tirelessly to create inclusive, supportive environments that recognize and address trauma, nurturing resilience in all individuals touched by the organization’s work.
Rebecca's journey to Somatic Experiencing® was informed by their extensive child welfare and family law background. Rebecca leverages their Somatic Experiencing® training in their leadership role to guide SE™ International’s programs and initiatives. They emphasize the importance of addressing trauma at both individual and systemic levels. This trauma-informed lens shapes everything from program design to staff training, ensuring that SE™ International's work is effective and compassionate.
As a former representative for children in child welfare cases in Los Angeles County, California, and Tucson, Arizona, they witnessed firsthand the impact of trauma on young lives. This experience, combined with their academic pursuits, including a Fulbright Scholarship in New Zealand, where they earned a Master of Law degree focusing on children’s legal representation, provides a solid foundation for their trauma-informed leadership approach. Before joining SEI, Rebecca served as the Executive Director of the Sayra and Neil Meyerhoff Center for Families, Children, and the Courts at the University of Baltimore School of Law. In this role, they continued integrating their Somatic Experiencing® training with legal practice, recognizing the powerful potential for healing when these disciplines are combined.
Rebecca is a respected voice in both legal and trauma-informed circles. They have presented at international conferences on children’s rights and family law, often focusing on the intersection of legal practice and trauma awareness. Their co-authored book, “Representing Children in Dependency and Family Law: Beyond the Law” reflects their commitment to holistic, trauma-informed representation of child clients. At SE™ International, Rebecca conducts worldwide trainings to help lawyers and other professionals navigate trauma manifestations in themselves and their clients. This work is central to their vision for the organization, as they believe that trauma-informed practices can revolutionize how we approach our communities and the world with more compassion.

Julie Stevens grew up in Southern California and moved to the San Francisco Bay Area at 13 to live with her two moms during a time of profound social change, marked by the Civil Rights, Women’s Rights, and LGBTQ movements. Amidst this vibrant atmosphere, Julie struggled with her identity and turned to drugs and alcohol to cope with early family turbulence. However, her community, including her moms, grandmother, and mentors, played a crucial role in helping her find confidence and purpose.
Her mother’s advice, “If this isn’t working for you, then create your own reality,” inspired Julie to build a community centered on equity, diversity, and inclusion.
With a background in hospitality and entrepreneurship, Julie studied various healing modalities, realizing that sharing these gifts was part of her mission. In 2015, she founded The Urban Retreat Center (URC) to offer a space where ancient earth-based practices are accessible to those seeking healing and connection. The URC embodies her vision, providing a sanctuary where diversity, equity, inclusion, and community thrive alongside events, rituals, and retreats.
By hosting teachers from diverse traditions, the URC continues to be a beacon of light, knowledge, and healing for all who seek personal growth and transformation.

This is rebroadcasting of an episode with Juditta Ben-David.
This is what it’s about--passion, heart and helping others. And today, my guest exudes all of those elements. Today, I’m speaking with Juditta Ben-David, SEP M.A., founder of The Mindfulness in Arabic project (MiA).
MiA has built a website that offers an eight-week Mindfulness course in Arabic, designed for refugees and people in transition. Any person with internet access may enter the website, free of charge, anywhere around the world. The course provides practical tools and exercises tailored specifically to support a shaken population that suffered traumas of fear, death and extreme violence. Juditta’s website also provides tools for therapists, social workers, welfare workers, and volunteers who are currently working with refugee populations, so that they may use mindfulness-based tools for their own needs in coping with work stress and related DP camp difficult experiences, as well as passing them on to their clients.
MiA developed out of the work of our founder, Juditta Ben-David, SEP M.A, in refugee camps in Turkey. Working there with refugees and their supporters/counselors and social-workers the request for additional tools led to a crowdfunding campaign raising one-half of the funds needed to launch our 8-week course. MiA is thankful to be supported by leading Mindfulness instructors like Jon Kabat Zinn, Jack Kornfield, Tara Brach, Christopher Titmuss and Patricia Genoud-Feldman as well as Mindfulness providers like Headspace and Mindful Magazine.
