Trauma-informed Somatic Coaching
A space to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and create lasting change from the inside out.
Understanding ourselves is important. But lasting change doesn’t happen through insight alone. It also happens through the body.
Do you sometimes feel like...
…you understand your patterns, but still keep falling back into them?
…you’re often overwhelmed, exhausted or on edge without really knowing why?
…you’ve spent years working on yourself, yet still don’t quite feel at home in yourself?
…you long for more ease, presence and self-trust in your everyday life?
If you’re nodding along, you’re not alone.
Many of the women I work with have already done a lot of inner work. They know themselves well. What they’re looking for isn’t more information, but a way to actually change what they previously haven’t been able to reach.
The body-centred approach
Deep-seated patterns – especially those stemming from early experiences or trauma – don’t reside in the mind. They live in the body.
That’s why some changes don’t happen through talking or merely understanding. They happen through learning the language of your body, gently building capacity to feel what has felt too difficult to feel, and creating new experiences of safety and connection.
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 does "trauma-informed" mean?
Working in a trauma-informed way means recognising that all of us have experiences that have shaped the way we relate to ourselves, to others and to the world. Experiences that have left an imprint on our nervous system.
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 space for us at the time of the event(s).
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 – signs of a chronically dysregulated nervous system.
In our work together, we don’t push, analyse or overwhelm your system.
We move at a pace that feels manageable for you, creating a space where your body can gradually begin to soften and feel safe enough to explore what wants to be seen.
How we can work together
I’ll guide you personally and individually – online, in a safe space that’s all yours.
My 1:1 coaching journeys aren’t about following a rigid programme. They’re a space where we meet what’s present and work with it together.
The nervous system serves as a common thread throughout every journey, because it is the place where everything is imprinted and where true change begins.
I currently offer three 1:1 coaching bundles:
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.
4 sessions · 60 min · 360€
Mama. Untamed.
The Nervous System · Motherhood & Identity · Boundaries · Your 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.
6 sessions · 60 min · 540€
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. Old conditioning keeps 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 experiences that transform your system from within.

Working with me always includes support between sessions (via Telegram or WhatsApp) if you ever feel like you need it.
If you feel called to walk part of your path with me, please feel free to reach out. I offer a free, no-obligation initial consultation where we can see if this is a good fit for both of us and address any remaining questions.
What becomes possible
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 work 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.
Is this for me?
This work is for you if…
- you've done a lot of personal development but still feel disconnected from yourself.
- you often feel overwhelmed, exhausted or emotionally stretched.
- inner restlessness, exhaustion, numbness or overwhelm shape your daily life.
- you're longing for a gentler, more embodied way of creating change.
- you're ready to meet yourself with curiosity rather than self-judgement.
Important note:
My work doesn’t 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.
