the state
01 / the sos stateThe SOS State
A moment when your body starts asking for help — before your life falls apart. A moment when your body says "no" — before you do.
I don't chase symptoms.
I decode them.
I'm a psychosomatic specialist and somatic coach — not a general life coach. We don't just talk about what happened; we look at how your body adapted to it.
- You're functioning — but you don't feel like yourself anymore.
- You keep saying "I'm fine," but your body clearly disagrees.
- You can't switch your brain off, even when nothing is happening.
- You sleep — but wake up exhausted.
- Your body reacts before your brain understands why.
This is for you if your body is getting in the way of how you want to live.
- The founder who can't switch off.
- The performer who freezes when it counts.
- The parent running on empty.
- The athlete whose body keeps flinching.
- Or simply: someone who keeps functioning, but knows their body has started making the rules.
You perform, work, create, compete, parent, love — and somewhere in there, your body started making the rules.
This is where you take the pen back.

Formula
i work with
This is why chasing symptoms doesn't work — you're treating the last link while the first one is still running. I start at the beginning of the chain, not the end of it.
Stress doesn’t stay where it starts. It moves in one direction, every time — and this is the exact path it takes.
result with me
A body and mind that finally work with you — not against you.

- bRejection hits deeper than it should. It lingers long after it ends.
- cTension settles into the body — and doesn't fully leave.
- dPresence drops when it matters most. Or turns mechanical.
- eRest feels unproductive. Stillness feels unsafe.
- fConfidence looks fine — until it suddenly isn't.
- gThe work costs more than it should.
what I believe
04 / the reframeYour body isn't betraying you.
It's protecting you.
Most people fight their symptoms. Silence them. Push through.
I don't.
I work through honesty.
Your body isn't the problem — it's the messenger. Protecting you in a way you may no longer recognize.
The insomnia. The tension. The panic that arrives with no reason attached. None of it is random. All of it is trying to tell you something.
In our sessions, you get to find the truth about yourself — the real you, underneath the performance.
My work is simple: we listen before we fix.
Because a body that feels understood finally lets go.
the method
05 / how the work worksHow the work works
You talk. Your body speaks. I listen. I observe.
Together, we reach the change words alone can't.
We begin with what's actually here.
You can say "I'm fine" — your jaw, your breath, and your shoulders can't. Posture, tension, sleep, the moments your body says "no": we map the signals you've been overriding.
We find what your body is protecting.
Symptoms aren't malfunctions — they're messages. Together we trace what your body is guarding, where it learned to, and what it's costing you now. We start where the leverage is.
You leave with something to practice.
Every session ends with one concrete practice — small enough to do the same night, real enough that your body notices. Even after one session, you'll leave with real clarity and one individual practice to start with. Session by session, that's how old habits shift — and how you get the results you actually came for.
Start. Observe. Shift.
That's SOS — and that's how your body comes back online.

Results
Not JUST a new mindset.
A different body to live in.
This is what clients describe after the work — in their own words, in their own bodies. Small, physical, unmistakable.
Sleep that actually counts
You stop negotiating with your brain at 2am. And you wake up like the sleep did something.
Headaches that finally make sense
Not just gone — understood. You start to see what sets them off, and they stop quietly running your week.
Energy that lasts past 3pm
No crash you have to caffeinate through. No getting to the afternoon on willpower alone.
Your stomach settles
Eating stops being a gamble. Your gut stops reacting to whatever is on your calendar.
Shoulders, jaw, neck — down
You stop discovering at midnight that you've been clenched since breakfast.
A breath that goes all the way down
Without having to remind yourself to take it.
Your body stops bracing
The phone buzzes and your stomach doesn't drop. "Can we talk?" doesn't cost you four hours.
You say no in a second
No three-day guilt hangover. No rehearsing the apology in the shower.
Rest without earning it
Sitting down stops needing a justification.
These are what clients describe — not guarantees, and not medical outcomes. Any physical symptom should be checked by a doctor first; this work runs alongside that care, never instead of it.

These are founding rates. Prices rise to $135 · $389 · $220 for everyone who starts after that. If you begin now, you keep your rate for as long as we work together.
For the moment when you don't know what's happening — but you know you don't want to keep ignoring it.

- You keep saying "I'm fine" — but something inside doesn't believe you.
- You're tired of thinking, analyzing, explaining, and still ending up in the same emotional place.
- You don't need a full plan yet. You need someone to help you name what feels off.
We look at your current state, body responses, stress patterns, and what your next step should be.

For the moment when you're ready to stop calling it "just stress" and finally understand what keeps pulling you back.
Learn more
- You keep repeating the same story in different forms — different people, different situations, same feeling.
- Not enough. Too much. Left behind. Unseen. Over-responsible. Always strong. Always tired.
- You can explain yourself well — but explanation doesn't change the pattern anymore.
We observe what your body is reacting to, what keeps repeating, and what your system may be trying to protect.

- You're done with temporary relief — no more breakthroughs that disappear three days later.
- You want to stop living from the same survival position: proving, pleasing, freezing, controlling, hiding, overthinking, shrinking.
- You want your body, choices, relationships, work, and self-trust to finally move in the same direction.
We work with body responses, nervous-system patterns, emotional blocks, survival reactions, stress, shutdown, overthinking, exhaustion — and the places where your body still feels stuck.

12 / which one are you
Not sure where to start?
Take the quiz.
Eight questions about how you actually move through your days. At the end you'll know which of four archetypes fits where you are right now — and the one next step that matches it.
Most people don't need more information. They need to know which part of this is theirs. That's what it's for.
questions
13 / before you askFrequently asked questions
What kind of coach are you?
A psychosomatic specialist and somatic coach — not a general life coach. My work combines somatic techniques, nervous-system awareness, body-response reading, crisis psychology, and deep pattern work. So we don't just talk about what happened; we look at how your body adapted to it, and shift it from there.
What happens in the free SOS session?
30 minutes, online, in English. You talk, I listen — and you leave with one concrete thing to try that same night. If it's not a fit, I'll say so, with no pitch.
Do I need to prepare anything?
No. Come as you are — tired, skeptical, mid-deadline. The session starts from whatever is actually happening in your body right now.
What does ongoing work cost?
Three ways to work together: START (one session, $89), OBSERVE (4 sessions over 2–3 months plus ongoing support, $342, installment plan available), and SHIFT (3-month private coaching, 6 sessions plus ongoing support, $180/month). The free first session is always the place to begin — no pitch.
Is what I share confidential?
Yes. What you share in sessions and in messages stays between us.
