Imagine your life if you lived from a place of internal kindness, warmth, acceptance and self-compassion? If you could find center any time you needed? Katya specializes in practical, step-by-step skills guiding one to navigate emotions efficiently while cultivating self-compassion and mind-body connection which are foundations for the overall well-being.

This holistic approach allows to process various emotional states skillfully which helps clients gain greater sovereignty in their everyday life. The modality takes one beyond talk therapy and cultivates Mind-Body connection as well as Self-Compassion. Both lay the foundation for most optimal functioning on several levels - emotional, mental and physical. The easiest way to think of this process is Mind-Based processing VS Body-Based processing. Most us are great at Mind-Based processing, however, we can often find ourselves stuck in it or unable to get through mental spiraling and ruminating. Ideally, we can access both - mind and body - quickly in order to see a full picture. This Somatic Psychotherapy approach is designed specifically to achieve that. Your journey will be completely online and will weave together modalities of the practice that build a healthy, kind, and compassionate relationship with the self, and encourage you to thrive in all aspects of life.

Katya specializes in working with individuals who are looking to master emotional navigation and are willing to practice on their own for best integration. Based on experience, this approach is not suited for someone whose body feels numb or unsafe, which might happen due to intense traumatic history. In such cases this is not the best place to start as the approach might not lead to desired results. Working with a skilled trauma therapist would be the best choice and once the trauma is processed, this could be a great next step. Additionally, this practice is not suited for someone with severe mental health conditions, personality disorders or for someone in a state of crisis for the same reasons.

In the online sessions with Katya, you will explore reconnecting to your body through guided meditations and exercises. These guided practices are designed so you are able to gain information from both, mind and body, conscious and subconscious, and make well-informed decisions. Additionally, you will work on building skills for navigating anxiety or emotions from a grounded foundation of the body. You will also set up your own personal practice that will serve as a resource beyond therapy.
