Coming home to yourself
Trauma- Informed Guidance + Somatic Coaching
I help women and mothers find their way back home to themselves – body-centred, nervous system-oriented and trauma-informed.
Do you long to truly feel at home in yourself?
Maybe you’ve tried many things – and some of it has helped. And yet, purely mind-based approaches don’t seem to get you to the root. You sense there must be another way. One that goes deeper. One that goes into the body.
And it is possible. Not overnight. But step by step, gently and sustainably – and I’m happy to support you as you embark on this journey.
The Body-Centred, Trauma-Informed Approach
Why the body is the key
Deep-seated patterns—especially those stemming from early experiences or trauma—don’t reside in the mind. They live in the body. In the nervous system, to be exact. In the reactions that arise faster than any thought.
Understanding alone is therefore not enough. You can be aware of your patterns and still find yourself falling back into them time and again. This isn’t a failure—it’s your nervous system, which was shaped long ago.
In my work, we go where change truly begins: at the level of the nervous system and somatic perception. Gently, safely, and entirely at your own pace.
What "trauma-informed" means
Trauma isn’t just about major events. Trauma occurs when something was too much, too fast, or too sudden—especially when there was no one there to hold us.
Attachment and developmental trauma, in particular, are more common than we think. The effects of these early experiences often manifest as chronic exhaustion, hypervigilance, feelings of numbness or disconnection, a tendency to become overwhelmed quickly, intense irritability, and the feeling of never truly being present — a generally dysregulated nervous system.
That is exactly where we begin.
How you can work with me
1:1 Support – online
I’ll guide you personally and individually — online, in a safe space that’s all yours.
You can book individual sessions with me, or you can opt from the start for longer-term support spanning several weeks or months. Each session provides space for whatever is coming up for you at the moment, without pressure and without a set agenda.

1:1 Support Programs
My packages are meant to provide guidance, not to box you in. The issues we carry in life are rarely neatly compartmentalized—and in our work, I always address whatever comes up. The nervous system serves as a common thread throughout every package, because it is the place where everything is imprinted and where true change begins.
Back to your body
Nervous System · Body Connection · Energy & Vitality
You keep going, day after day. But your sense of self has grown fainter – your sense of what you need, of what feels right. On the one hand, you feel driven and as if you’re constantly on autopilot. On the other hand, you can’t find peace, even though you’re actually so exhausted.
In this coaching, we’ll return together – to your body, to your nervous system, to that quiet voice that’s still there and wants to be heard.

Mama. Untamed.
The Nervous System · Motherhood & Identity · Boundaries · Your Own Needs
You love your family life. And yet, at the same time, you sometimes wonder where you lost yourself in the balancing act between family, motherhood, your relationship – and your own needs.
This journey is about reconnecting with yourself. It’s about living YOURSELF again. Not just the woman you once were, not just the mother you are today – but you as a whole person, with all your inner parts. It’s about feeling what you truly need – and being able to live and communicate it.

Home in Yourself
Nervous System · Trauma & Conditioning · Inner Security
By now, you’re familiar with your patterns. You’ve tried many things. And yet, deep down, nothing changes. Perhaps you’ve noticed that trauma and old conditioning keep resurfacing.
These deep-seated patterns are stored in the body, not in the mind. In this process, we go where these patterns truly reside – gently, at your own pace – and create new & safe experiences that transform your system from within.

What this work offers
This work isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about returning to yourself.
It’s about gradually peeling away layers that no longer serve us – layers we’ve had to use to cover up our true selves over the years in order to survive, function, and be loved.
Through our time together, you can:
- reconnect with difficult feelings that never had space before
- learn to feel safe and grounded in your body
- rediscover your intuition, strength and vitality
- recognise unconscious patterns and shift them in an embodied way
- expand your window of tolerance – for more patience, more clarity & presence with yourself
- live out your true 'self', because you know what you need and want
- find a sense of ease, freedom, self-determination & authenticity in all areas of your life
Important: This work is gradual and gentle. Real, lasting change doesn’t come from speed
– it comes from depth.
My Story
For a long time, I thought my overactive nervous system was just part of who I am – something I’d have to learn to live with. When I became a mom, my biggest challenge began.
After years of inner work and periods of talk therapy, I understood my patterns very well—rationally.
But my nervous system was chronically dysregulated, and understanding alone barely changed anything in my daily life.
Then I discovered trauma-sensitive, somatic work.
This was the puzzle piece that was missing for me.
Today, I have a larger window of tolerance than ever before. More patience. More clarity. More connection to myself. I know myself and my different inner parts better than ever before. When I feel out of balance, I find my way back to my center much more quickly. I’m not “fully healed” (are we ever? I doubt it.) – but I’ve learned to hold myself. And that makes a huge difference.
I have lived with cystic fibrosis since birth. This experience – of feeling at home in the body, or not – has deeply connected me to these issues and led me to this work.
This is what I want to pass on.
What other clients say
This work is for you if...
- ...you notice patterns holding you back that you already understand intellectually
- ...you feel disconnected from your body or yourself
- ...inner restlessness, exhaustion, numbness or overwhelm shape your daily life
- ...you're a mother and keep falling into patterns you genuinely want to change
- ...you no longer want to just understand – you want to truly feel and shift things
- you're ready for a gentle, sustainable path – instead of quick fixes
Important note:
My work does not replace psychotherapy. If you are experiencing acute or severe psychological distress, I recommend working with a therapist – alongside or instead of our work together. I’m happy to refer you if needed.
About Me
My work is shaped by my own lived experience of a chronically dysregulated nervous system – and the long journey back to myself. Motherhood brought me face to face with these topics in the deepest way.
I am a trained trauma-informed practitioner (Somatic Practitioner Training “The Sovereign Path”) and certified life coach (Life Trust Coaching, Homodea/Veit Lindau).
My background as a creative entrepreneur – content creator, web designer, and mentor for autobiographical writing – flows into my work, especially through journaling and writing as tools for self-reflection.
I am also the author of three autobiographical novels.
"The depth may frighten us, the darkness of the abyss unsettling. But there – deep within us – lives perfect stillness, gentle waves, the space where infinity unfolds."
Das sagen andere:
“In deiner Gegenwart fällt es mir leicht meine Gedanken und Gefühle auszudrücken und mich und meine Situationen zu reflektieren. Du bist eine sehr achtsame und wertschätzende Zuhörerin, bei der ich mich immer wohl fühle. Ich schätze deine intuitive Arbeitsweise und deine Empathie. Es war zudem toll, dass wir konkrete Arbeitsschritte entwickelt haben, wie es jetzt für mich weitergeht. Dadurch war das Coaching sehr gut abgerundet und ich weiß nun, was es für mich zu tun gibt. Herzlichen Dank für dich und deine Begleitung, die ich immer sehr schätze! “

„Hatte gerade einen Coaching-Call mit meiner wunderbaren Denise und fühle mich jetzt wieder ein Stück näher bei mir selbst. 🥰
Ich kann Denise nur jedem weiterempfehlen. 😘“
– Susie
“Vielen Dank, liebe Denise ♥️ Deine Coachings sind eine so wundervolle Erfahrung!
Direkt von Anfang an ist eine so vertrauensvolle Atmosphäre da, die es mir leicht macht, mich zu öffnen. Du bringst so viel Weisheit, Klarheit und eine außergewöhnliche Fähigkeit mit, tiefere Zusammenhänge zu erkennen und anzusprechen. Deine empathische und natürliche Art ist wirklich sehr besonders.
Durch die richtigen Fragen zur richtigen Zeit finden wir schnell heraus, was das „eigentliche“ Thema ist. Dank dir finde ich immer wieder neue Perspektiven und Lösungen, die sich für mich richtig und stimmig anfühlen und kann alte Glaubenssätze und Geschichten loslassen.
Nach unseren Sessions spüre mehr Leichtigkeit, bin im Vertrauen und voller Energie, die nächsten Schritte zu gehen.”
