ABOUT
Meet katja, Somatic Healer & Educator
Once upon a time… There was a little girl.
A girl who was weird according to normal standards. A girl who felt deeply and didn’t really fit in. A girl who had undiagnosed autism and ADHD and didn’t have any tools or understanding around it. A girl for whom feeling, holding spaces of healing and resonance always came very naturally. A girl who soon learned that all those things were unsafe to show to the World.
Did you guess it already? That girl was me.
And so I went on and had a “proper” corporate career for 16 years, working my way up the ladder to managing director and a board member of an international company. In the state of override, fawn, and frozen dissociation. There was a huge mismatch between who I really was and who I was so hard trying to be.
Long story short…
About six years ago, I finally had the strength to change the conditions, and I went on a journey of expanding into my true Blueprint embodiment. The Blueprint of a healer, feeler, Liminal Spaces guide, Body-whisperer, Soul-retriever, and, at the same time, a sharp rational thinker and a modern human.
Six years of deep, continuous working with mentors, study, and working with hundreds of clients. Multiple certifications in neurology, somatic trauma resolution, breathwork, yoga, somatic movement, bodywork, and nervous system study
And so here I am on the alchemical path of transforming my deepest pain into my most potent medicine. Or, as I call it, the path of unf*cking the F*ckery of this world.
I am here…
-
To offer you a different paradigm of healing, learning, and being
-
To hold spaces for alchemical transformation
-
For all the nuance and paradox, intensity, and subtlety of being human
-
To offer you frameworks and tools based in the nervous system, Nature, and the embodiment of Spirit, so you can tap into fields that are much wider than our human challenges
-
For you, as you bring your deepest layers of Freeze* and other emergency responses trapped in your Body
*All my work is Freeze-based. Because Freeze is a default response for all children and women (which means all humans).
The aliveness revolution
One of my students called this work “The Aliveness Revolution”, because…
Slowing down, widening time, and coming back to our humanity, agency, power, and choice, especially amidst the emergency (external and internal), is revolutionary work.

I mentor seasoned practitioners…
…in refining their experience, creating and practicing the most potent version of their medicine so they can facilitate change in the World. Because the World needs more practitioners who can feel deeply, anchor and root deeply, and hold space for all the nuance, paradox, intensity, and subtlety of what being a human in the modern world entails. Together, let’s hold very intentional resonant slow anchored spaces, strong enough for any difficulty to show up and to begin to metabolize.
Let’s be in it together!
