Member Testimonials
“After years of using the SE Practitioner Directory to find other SE professionals, I wondered if it might be helpful to be listed myself. Since joining, it’s been delightful to connect with other members of the SE community who found my contact information there. Also, I’ve also been surprised with the number of new clients who found me in the Directory. Austin is a growing city, and the Directory is the first place newcomers look to find SE Practitioners.”
“The first year I listed as an SEP in the SE Practitioner Directory, I was pleasantly surprised to receive several inquiries and referrals each month. My listing in the directory offered interesting folds in the area an opportunity to explore the benefits of SE close to home.”
“I have been a member of the NY directory for 10 years. My listing has allowed professionals going through the SE training program to read my background, to see if we are a match to work together, and also read how I can fulfill their needs. This has helped them to reach out to me for private sessions, case consultations and SE reviews. And for clients who are searching for a trauma therapist they have found me on the website and called to book private sessions. So I have been very pleased to have my listing on the SEI website and will continue my membership in the years to come!”

What happened to the membership/directory login/signup on the website?
SEI recently completed a technology update that has enabled us to provide a more streamlined, portal experience for our community. These features are now accessible in the Portal by clicking the Become A Member or Find A Practitioner tab.
How do I access the portal environment?
Please visit the Fonteva Landing Page for all questions regarding the new portal environment.
What membership tier should I join?
Please select the tier that best suits your budget and anticipate engagement with SEI. SEI will be increasing the number of short programs offered and increasing the member benefits. Once you choose a membership level, you cannot change during the membership cycle. You may refer to our list of membership levels here.
The membership length of time I originally purchased is no longer an option. What does that mean for me?
Previously purchased memberships will be recognized for their length of time as tier 2 members. If they expire, you will be asked to renew as a tier 2 member.
How to purchase a membership?
You can Become a Member by selecting that tab at the top of the Portal. You will need to complete a short questionnaire prior to selecting your membership tier. Finally, you will be directed to complete your purchase.
How do I create my Practitioner Directory listing?
If you have at least completed your Beginning I module, you may be listed on the Practitioner Directory. The Practitioner Directory is now a separate subscription from membership and does not require a purchase of membership to subscribe. If you choose not to be an SEI member but still want to be listed in the Practitioner Directory and qualify, the price will be USD $75 per year. If you choose to become a member, you will receive a discount based on your membership tier for your Practitioner Directory subscription. Qualifying individuals may purchase the Practitioner Directory subscription in the e-Store. Once purchased, you must fill out the contact information you would like listed in the directory.
I don’t see the Practitioner Directory for purchase in the store. What do I do?
If you believe you are eligible to purchase the Practitioner Directory subscription and cannot locate it for purchase, please submit the Contact Form for support and to verify your eligibility
I’ve already created a profile. How do I log back in?
Please log into the portal to review and make updates to your Practitioner Directory listing through the My Info tab on the left navigation.
How long will it take for my practitioner listing to be added or reflect my changes?
Now that the Practitioner Directory is more directly linked to SEI’s records via the portal, your listing and updates should appear immediately. If you do not see these updates promptly, please attempt to log out and back in prior to requesting support. If this does not resolve your issue, please submit the Contact Form for additional support.
How do I renew my membership?
You can now renew your membership from the My Subscriptions or the My Renewal Notices tabs on the left-hand side of the portal. Once you pay and your profile is active, you can update your listing at any time.
When does my membership expire?
Membership is valid for one year from the purchase date. You may now review and manage your renewals through the My Renewal Notices tab in the portal.
