Welcome! I'm Marina, an embodiment coach & somatic trauma healer.

For leaders & care providers seeking a deeper level of healing and empowerment.

Access more layers of your wisdom and vitality to expand your capacity to hold space, lead & thrive.

What is a somatic approach to healing?

Somatics derives from the Greek word Somatikos, which means the living, aware, bodily person.

In this approach to healing and transformation, mind, body, and spirit are not separate and are part of a living process called Soma.

The Soma, or our living body in its wholeness, is the landscape of our work.

That means that in somatic sessions, we engage thinking, feeling, sensing, intuiting and actions. It’s a deep and holistic view of healing.

In terms of the specific training I have in Somatic Experiencing®, we also address the deeper layers of our nervous systems and survival stress responses, so that you can heal from trauma, stress, and emotional issues by releasing tension and restoring balance in the Soma.

Through this approach, you’ll experience that personal empowerment, inner safety, agency, liberation and erotic aliveness are much more than theory and speech. They need to be restored and cultivated in our Somas…  so that they can be translated into all areas of our lives.

As somatic trauma healer, I support people who are trapped in the chains of past trauma and have a deep desire to reclaim their sovereign power, inner freedom and erotic aliveness.

Through somatic trauma healing + coaching + holistic embodiment techniques, I help you: 

  • Gently integrate traumas
  • Regulate your nervous system
  • Feel more pleasure in the expression of your sexuality
  • Find the energy to go after your dreams and passion projects
  • Develop self-confidence to be yourself, free of fear of judgment or external expectations

So you can step beyond surviving and deepen your lust for life and connection to your purpose as a leader and care provider.
