Somatic Experiencing Practitioner Team
Who we are:
Somatic Experiencing Practitioners
based in Asia & working globally
Welcome to Back To Your Body – Online Somatic Therapy!
We are a small team of Somatic Experiencing practitioners trained in the method of Dr. Peter Levine, as well as in other somatic trauma healing modalities.
We specialise in trauma, nervous system regulation and attachment, and we work one-on-one with adults and couples, offering online somatic therapy sessions worldwide.
Every person is unique and so should be the approach to healing.
About us
Apart from being Somatic Experiencing practitioners and somatic trauma healing professionals, we are also humans who have been on a healing journey long enough to know how challenging it can be. Our lived experience and our professional training in multiple body-oriented trauma healing approaches allow us to meet our clients with understanding and sensitivity for where they are on their healing journey.
Each one of us is different with a unique skill set and expertise. But what brings us together is the awe for the incredible innate self-healing capacity our bodies and our nervous systems hold, and the appreciation for the somatic healing approaches that allow us to access it.

About Me:
As a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, I support women on their healing journey, guiding them back home to themselves and their bodies.
My practice is rooted in over 20 years of working with the body through movement – initially as a dance artist, later as a yoga facilitator, and currently as a trauma-trained somatic practitioner.
I work gently at a pace of your nervous system, and I lead with compassion and attunement, striving to create a safe space to attend to the wounds that are not meant to be healed on our own.
One of my specialities is working with early childhood developmental trauma, which often shows up as emotional or physiological symptoms that seem to have no context or medical cause. I also enjoy supporting women recovering after shock trauma and offering guidance in repairing relational ruptures and generational wounds.
In my Somatic Experiencing sessions, I weave in the elements of NeuroAffective Touch, emotional embodiment of Integral Somatic Psychology (ISP), IFS-based somatic parts work and applied Polyvagal Theory to address a range of struggles.
I believe that all of us have the innate resilience and capacity to overcome the grip of our past, and as we (re)discover it with the right support, we can find more ease, freedom and joy in being alive.

About Me:
As a body-oriented, attachment-informed trauma therapist & couples specialist, I help individuals and couples reclaim their emotional well-being, rebuild healthier relationships, and rediscover their sense of agency.
I understand that trauma, attachment patterns, and cultural influences shape our behaviors and relationships in powerful ways. With compassion, cultural sensitivity, and a deep commitment to your unique experience, I will support you in navigating these complexities and finding healing.
I integrate Bodynamic Therapy, Somatic Experiencing (SE), and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help you address deep-rooted emotional wounds. These therapeutic approaches work in harmony to release emotional tension stored in the body, process unresolved trauma, and heal internalized beliefs.
Therapy is a collaborative journey. Together, we’ll explore your goals, dive into emotional patterns, and make space for meaningful, lasting change. Success in therapy isn’t just about surface-level shifts—it’s about creating a deeper connection to yourself, healthier relationships, and a more authentic life.
