Guiding you through the process of embodied change
Hi I’m Aleksandra
I work with people who feel overwhelmed, stuck in their heads, anxious, burnt out—or simply disconnected from themselves. My approach is gentle but deep. It's grounded in nervous system regulation, somatic awareness, and emotional presence. And it’s shaped by over 15 years of exploring psychology, mindfulness, eco-somatics, and trauma-informed approaches.
"You do not have to be good. You do not have to walk on your knees for a hundred miles through the desert, repenting. You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves." - Mary Oliver
My Approach: The Process of Embodied Change
At the core of my work is a therapeutic model I’ve developed called The Process of Embodied Change. It’s not about fixing yourself—it’s about rebuilding a supportive, honest relationship with your body. From that relationship, everything else begins to shift. When we learn to feel safe and experience the body, and slowly clear up all the emotional and energetic gunk, we learn to hear and trust our inner wisdom. By doing so we inherently reshape the relationship with ourselves because we are our body.
This process moves through four key phases:
-
Grounding & Safety – Learning to land in the body and feel supported
-
Processing – Making space to feel and listen without judgment
-
Defining new boundaries – Reclaiming your space in the world
-
Empowerment and freedom – Living from your own rhythm and values, not performance
These aren’t linear steps—they’re stages we return to again and again. I teach them in workshops, courses, and embodied resources designed to support you in real life, not just in theory.
If you’d like to begin or reconnect with your own embodied journey, I invite you to explore my current offerings.
A Bit About My Story
My work is deeply personal. Like many of the people I now support, I spent years disconnected from my body. I lived in a cycle of anxiety, overachievement, and emotional exhaustion—functioning on the outside, but often dissociated or overwhelmed on the inside.
Through years of somatic practice, deep listening, and self-compassion, I began to come home to myself. What I now offer is not a quick fix—but a slow, sustainable return to wholeness. And it’s the most powerful work I know.
