Understanding Psychosomatic Therapy & Coaching

Most traditional therapy focuses on cognition and personal history. While this can be useful, it often leads to extensive analysis of the past without linking it to present-day patterns. This approach uses what arises in the present to access unresolved stories and emotional imprints still active in the system. Coaching tends to prioritise goals, performance, and mindset. It may not address trauma, relational history, or unconscious dynamics that influence behaviour. Without this foundation, key obstacles can remain unexamined. This method integrates both disciplines. It is structured, trauma-informed, and designed to meet psychological, emotional, and somatic complexity. It is particularly suited to those who are sensitive, high-functioning, creative, or navigating longstanding inner patterns. Unlike most therapy or coaching models, this work follows a defined framework. The process is strategic, time-bound, and oriented toward meaningful integration. It supports lasting change by meeting the deeper architecture beneath patterns, symptoms, and defences.

In my approach to psychosomatic coaching, we work across the layers of psyche, body, and story to access the root architecture of what’s keeping you stuck. This isn’t a standardised model—it’s a living method I’ve developed to meet complexity with precision, clarity, and structural depth. Three core techniques include: • Parts Work — We identify and engage with internal sub-personalities or ego-states that hold unmet needs, protective roles, or frozen responses. These parts often surface as emotion, thought patterns, or somatic charge. • Somatic Mapping — We track sensations, contractions, and energetic shifts in the body to locate where memory, meaning, or defense is held. This brings coherence to otherwise fragmented experiences. • Narrative Tracking — We examine the stories your system tells about yourself, others, and the world. We interrupt those that are entangled with survival strategies or inherited roles, creating space for something truer to emerge. Together, these techniques support deep integration—not just insight or symptom relief, but real, embodied transformation.

Psychosomatic therapy and coaching is a trauma-informed, integrative process that works across psyche (mind), soma (body), and soul (self/identity). It combines somatic awareness, strategic coaching, and narrative inquiry to explore where distress, disconnection, or stuckness may be held in your system. Rather than relying on talk-based insight alone, this approach includes the body as an active participant. Together, we track physical sensations, listen to your nervous system, and explore the stories—often from the past—that continue to shape how you relate to yourself and others. This work is especially relevant for people who’ve explored conventional medical or psychological treatment but still experience persistent symptoms. It offers a holistic, non-pathologsing space to meet the emotional and somatic layers of that experience—aiming not just for symptom relief, but for a deeper restoration of clarity, coherence, and self-energy.

The Psychosomatic Restoration Method™ (PSR Method) is a structured, trauma-informed framework developed to support individuals navigating high-functioning CPTSD, relational trauma, and chronic emotional suppression. It emerged from the limitations of standard therapy, coaching, and alternative modalities that often overlook the need for containment, pacing, and long-term integration. The PSR Method is designed for those who’ve adapted by over-functioning, suppressing emotion, or performing in relationships to stay safe. It helps identify and unwind protective patterns while restoring access to split-off or silenced parts of the self. What makes the method distinct is its developmental pacing, integration of both somatic and symbolic processes, and its ability to hold the full human system—body, mind, and relational field—together in one coherent arc. Clients often report increased inner stability, clearer boundaries, and a return to self-authorship.

This work is for individuals who feel stuck—whether in their health, relationships, career, or inner life—and are seeking a more grounded, integrative path forward. It’s particularly suited to those who have already engaged in therapy, coaching, or alternative modalities, but still sense that something foundational remains unmet. It supports those navigating repeated relational patterns, burnout, or chronic emotional cycles, as well as individuals experiencing acute or persistent physical symptoms that haven’t fully responded to other forms of support. This is a depth-based process designed to address the root causes of distress—psychologically, somatically, and relationally. It may be especially resonant if you’re seeking a structured, trauma-informed approach that includes the body—not just the mind—in your healing and integration process.

Common entry points include: Emotional overwhelm or shutdown Chronic patterns in relationships Burnout, people-pleasing, or boundary collapse Body-based symptoms (e.g., IBS, fatigue, pain) Long COVID or post-viral fatigue that hasn’t responded to conventional care Career or identity confusion Feeling unseen, miscast, or energetically “too much” Existential fatigue or spiritual disorientation Navigating neurodivergence, including autism and sensory processing sensitivity Living with visible or invisible disabilities A sense of incoherence, fragmentation, or being stuck in repeating life themes This work is not limited to those with a diagnosis or medical condition. It’s for anyone ready to explore what’s been living beneath the surface and restore connection to their deeper self.

No. While many clients arrive with complex trauma histories or longstanding emotional patterns, a formal diagnosis is not required. This work is about understanding your system, not labelling it. Some clients come in navigating anxiety, burnout, or chronic symptoms. Others are simply in a season of change, sensing something deeper is ready to emerge.

Yes, this approach to somatic therapy and coaching is highly effective in an online format. While some assume that somatic work must happen in person, many clients find that working remotely allows for just as much depth, if not more. The screen creates a natural boundary that can support safety and containment, especially for individuals with complex trauma histories or those new to body-based modalities.

Psychosomatic therapy and coaching is especially well-suited for individuals in active transition—whether personal or professional—who are seeking a grounded, integrative approach that works with both the body and psyche. This isn’t about open-ended introspection. It’s for people who want structured support with momentum—something that moves. If you’re emotionally intelligent, self-aware, and craving lasting change, this work meets you where you are and helps move what’s been stuck. You don’t need a diagnosis. But you do need a willingness to meet yourself honestly and consistently. Sessions are held remotely in English. While I’m based in Brandenburg, Germany, I work with clients across the UK, Europe, North America, and other regions where time zones allow.

Only as an initial entry point. After the Introductory Session, we’ll decide together whether ongoing work makes sense. From there, I work with clients on a monthly plan basis. This allows for structure, depth, and continuity—while still honouring flexibility.

This is a process-oriented approach. You’re invited to bring a theme, challenge, or area of exploration into each session. Each session is unique, but commonly includes deep inquiry, somatic tracking, emotional patterning, parts work, and real-time reflection. We may track how stories live in the body, work with internal parts, or name unconscious patterns shaping your present. You might notice nervous system shifts, insight into relational or professional dynamics, or body-based changes like release or relief. Sometimes I offer integration tasks or reflections between sessions—but the core of this work remains the live, embodied process we hold together.

Sessions take place three times per month, following a rhythm of three weeks on, one week off to allow for pause and integration. This frequency supports depth, consistency, and real-time momentum in the work.

All sessions are currently offered remotely via secure video call. I primarily work with clients across the UK, EU, USA, and Canada, though I’m open to working with clients in other regions depending on time zone compatibility.

At this time, I offer only one-to-one supervision and mentorship. This ensures each session is highly attuned to your specific practice, client dynamics, and developmental arc. Group formats may be introduced in the future, but are not currently available.

This space is for practitioners across disciplines—coaches, therapists, mentors, bodyworkers, dance or movement specialists, and facilitators—who are holding complex human dynamics and want refined, trauma-informed support. You might be: Navigating high-intensity or complex client presentations Holding sensitive dynamics such as developmental trauma, dissociation, or fragmentation Working at the somatic, symbolic, or relational edge of your modality Experiencing somatic countertransference and needing space to decode what’s yours vs. what’s being signalled through the field Supporting children, families, or neurodivergent clients in ways that require sustained relational sensitivity Seeking a more integrative lens than what your original training provided This space is especially suited for practitioners working in relationally sensitive ways—those for whom the client relationship is a central channel of the work, not a sideline. Whether you’re anchored in a modality or still defining your approach, the focus here is on helping you stay resourced, attuned, and structurally clear in your practice.

Supervision is for active practitioners—coaches, therapists, and space-holders—who want structured support around their clinical or client-facing work. Sessions are focused on case material, containment, practitioner blind spots, and structural clarity. It’s designed to strengthen your existing practice through targeted reflection and strategy. Mentorship is a longer-term space for practitioners who feel a strong alignment with the way I work and want to be consistently exposed to the method’s underlying architecture. It offers a structured pathway for those interested in deepening their own approach through direct contact with the frameworks I’ve developed over time. This includes those who may be integrating psychosomatic, trauma-informed, or high-complexity approaches into their own professional context.

No. This work is not clinical, diagnostic, or intended for crisis support. I do not provide medical advice, psychiatric diagnoses, or emergency care. If you are currently experiencing acute psychiatric symptoms (such as suicidality, psychosis, or severe instability), or require ongoing clinical oversight, I strongly recommend seeking appropriate psychiatric or medical care alongside, or prior to, working with me. This approach is designed for clients who are ready for integrative, body-based work and long-term restoration—not medical or crisis intervention.

Yes. I work closely with neurodivergent clients, including those with autism, ADHD, sensory processing differences, and other non-normative neurotypes. My approach is non-pathologising—I do not view neurodivergence as something to be fixed, but rather as an adaptive expression of a system that has been shaped by its environment. In psychosomatic work, we explore these adaptations as intelligent responses, ways the system has learned to cope, communicate, or protect itself. Neurodivergent traits often carry embedded signals: energetic sensitivities, relational patterns, or sensory processing dynamics that are deeply somatic in origin. You do not need a formal diagnosis to work with me. What matters is your willingness to explore how your system organises experience, and your openness to meeting those patterns with curiosity, care, and respect.

This work is active, not passive. It’s designed for people ready to engage with their inner world, take responsibility for patterns, and explore beyond familiar narratives. It may not be a fit if you’re: Looking for crisis support, validation-only spaces, or a non-directive listener Unwilling or unable to reflect on your role in recurring dynamics Seeking a traditional therapist or licensed mental health provider for diagnosis or medication support This is not a drop-in service, it’s a structured, ongoing process. Commitment, presence, and relational accountability are essential.

I am not a licensed psychologist or psychotherapist. My training has taken place outside traditional clinical institutions, through accredited coaching programmes and advanced postgraduate specialisation in somatic therapy, trauma-informed care, and relational dynamics. I also receive regular clinical supervision and engage in continuous professional development. Rather than following a standard therapeutic or coaching model, my approach has emerged through years of hands-on client work and lived experience—particularly with sensitive, high-functioning individuals navigating complex internal and relational dynamics. The method I offer is integrative, strategic, and designed to meet psychological and somatic complexity without bypassing it. For a full overview of my training, click here.
