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.

the jaw stays tight

the stomach clenches

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

I work with women who feel overwhelmed, burnt out, anxious, or quietly disconnected — not because they’re broken, but because their bodies are still protecting them.

Through somatic therapy, nervous system regulation, education and gentle attunement I help you return to your body not as a problem to solve, but as a place of clarity, safety, and quiet power.

Somatic Therapy is a holistic, body-centered approach that honors the deep connection between the mind and body. It recognizes the body as a vital part of understanding and working through challenges such as overwhelming experiences, difficult emotions, stress, wounds of the past and the complexities of life.

Somatic Therapy is about finding safety in the Body.

My approach

I weave together the principles of Somatic Experiencing, Polyvagal Theory, yoga, breathwork, and parts work.

Somatic Experiencing helps gently release stored stress and overwhelm, while Polyvagal Theory provides a framework for regulating the nervous system and fostering safety. Yoga and breathwork invite movement, balance, and presence, while parts work supports exploring and integrating different aspects of yourself.

I place a strong emphasis on both physiological and psychological education— because understanding your nervous system is the first step to trusting yourself and lasting change.

Common themes I work with

  • Nervous system dysregulation: chronic anxiety, shutdown, burnout, overwhelmed, or like your body is always “on”

  • Emotional overwhelm, mood swings or disconnection - like nothing touches you anymore

  • Compulsive coping patterns: food, screen time, overworking, over-giving

  • Insomnia and sleep disturbances, chronic pain and tension and the lingering effects of trauma, including PTSD.

  • Stuck in life transitions: breakup, motherhood, career shift, identity change

  • Body image, numbness, or shame around sensation and pleasure— restless, tight, or just… tired body

  • Doubting yourself even when you “know” you’re doing the right thing

  • Identity fatigue — especially in caregiving, achievement, or spiritual bypass

  • Difficult emotions—anger, shame, self-blame, grief, fear—helping women learn how to feel emotions without drowning in them

  • Navigating medical dismissal, female-coded trauma, cultural pressure

  • Reclaiming confidence, joy, pleasure, vitality

  • Longing to feel at home — in your body, in your choices, in your life

and if you're thinking... “I don’t know what’s wrong, but I know this isn’t working ”… that’s enough.

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”
