your body has a story to tell.

Welcome an opportunity to become more informed about your embodiment, therefore yourself.


Somatic Therapy

You’ve done the work - the therapy, the mindset shifts, the journaling, the holding-it-all-together. But your body’s still holding something your mind couldn’t fix.

your system feels like it’s always bracing or checked out.

Hi, I’m Anastasija, a trauma-informed Somatic Therapist and Educator. I help people restore balance after overwhelm, stress, shock, or trauma by guiding the nervous system toward regulation, safety, and greater capacity — cultivating more ease and stability in everyday life.

This work invites you to rebuild trust in your body, your intuition, your boundaries, and your own rhythm of healing. My approach is rooted in nervous system attunement and regulation, embodiment, and practical tools for living with more presence and resilience, clarity and safety.

My approach

SE®-informed Somatic Therapy is a body-oriented approach to psychological and physiological healing. Instead of treating the mind as the sole narrator, it listens to the body’s quieter language - muscle tone, breath rhythms, visceral tension, subtle posture shifts. These micro-stories reveal where stress, trauma, or emotion has been stored in the nervous system.

My role is to provide skillful ground and attentive presence. We begin with your body - not as a problem to fix, but as a system that has adapted beautifully to survive. Together, we create the conditions for your system to soften, reorganize, and remember what safety feels like.

In the sessions, I integrate Somatic Experiencing®, Polyvagal Theory, Body-Mind Centering®, and Parts Work adding nervous system education and practical tools as needed.

What a session feels like?

We start with where you are. Through awareness and gentle self-inquiry, we track breath, impulse, and sensation. During the sessions we help the body complete interrupted protective responses - releasing stored survival energy and restoring the system’s natural capacity for regulation. This process transforms patterns that once kept the body in cycles of stress, disconnection, or shutdown.

Testimonials

  • “Somatic therapy feels like I am returning to a home that I didn’t know I had left. It feels like mapping the contours of my inner self. It feels like reintegrating my body and my mind, and holding myself in the wholeness.”

    Hilary

  • “I always knew I loved myself and that I am awesome. But I did not think I could have her (inner child) and how self-love truly feels. Me to me. I have been waiting over 50 years to get here. I have discovered a path inside - I have a map. I just know. It’s a feeling”

    Kelly

  • “My session with Anastasija took me places that I have not been able to reach in nearly 6 years of traditional talk therapy. She somehow made such an intricate process seem effortless and led me right into the heart of what was weighing on me and shared strategies to take with me into the future. This work is a gift, I cannot recommend enough.”

    Leah

  • “Anastasija held space for me to explore my assumptions and beliefs in a way that was truly eye opening for me. She was like a guide inviting me into the depths of my soul body connection, in a way that I always felt safe and in control. She gave me tools that I could use to continue my work on my own in an empowered way. I’m so grateful for her patience, support, and compassion in our sessions, and for the first time in a while I feel confident on my path to getting back to a more embodied, whole version of myself.”

    Alexandria

  • Somatic therapy felt like waking up a part of my experience that I didn’t know was dormant. A return to my body, not just as a vessel (or a tool), but as a guide and a teacher. It started off disorienting/frustrating, but over time has become almost sacred….where sensation replaces my analysis, breath clears my mind, and clarity emerges without words. I’m learning to listen to tension, stillness, impulse etc….and have found another tool, as valid as the psychological and spiritual ones. And for me more accessible.”

    Kristian

  • Somatic therapy enables me to reconnect with every part of my epicenter—especially parts of myself that I have never been able to locate without the somatic mapping and breath work Anastasija has helped me discover.  Through her coaching, I have been able to find the emotional maps within my body and further safely discover my Self—my being —my joy— my pain and all the feelings in between—and most importantly integrate my body, mind and spirit while actually healing myself.  I am forever grateful.

    Kelley

  • “You made the space feel so safe that it invited a shockingly vulnerable experience. Thank you for that. I’m typically not that open. In my experience with other forms of therapy it takes weeks, even months, to get to the kind of depth we uncovered.

    Emily

  • “Our session the other day really helped to give me an anchor to move from. I started a practices of humming daily, have been running and moving body each morning and have been connecting with my inner child multiple times a day and it has made a profound difference. I have been able to stay present and grounded at work. It feels so good to understand myself at the deeper level and know how to support and move with myself though change and fear. Thank you fro being an invaluable catalyst to my growth”
