I am a somatic coach with deep roots in social justice. I’ve spent much of my life so far contributing to queer, trans, feminist, climate & social justice movements. This work has shaped my view on healing and helped me understand it as a profoundly radical act that we all deeply need. Healing is political because we are all shaped by social norms, culture, history, and broader forces – thus, we need to take these into account when healing. We always practice something, but is what we practice aligned with what we care about? Or is it something we have inherited, and which runs our lives on autopilot?
Like yours, my reality is multi-layered, with nuances that I am still uncovering. I’m a human also walking this path of healing, stumbling on the path to uncover my truths, to connect deeply with myself and others, and to be in my purpose. A curious being with love for silence, nature, the mystical, the magical, ritual, and the unknown. A queer, non binary person, born in post-revolution Romania in the 90s, and currently living in Belgium.
I’m a professional somatic coach, trainer and facilitator. A forever student of embodiment and change. My work has been deeply shaped by all the teachers from whom I got the privilege of learning, especially those in the lineage of generative somatics and Strozzi Institute
Whether I am in a coaching partnership, or facilitating group processes I am committed to relational learning that creates more freedom and choice.
I VALUE:
kindness
autonomy
self-determination
unconditional love
self-responsibility
inter-dependence
collaboration
congruence
As a coach, I will do my work to be as fully myself as I can in relating with you, so you can have space to fully bring yourself in. I will regard you as a whole being that already has all they need to find solutions to their challenges. We co-create a path towards healing that meets you where you are in your nervous system, and takes you closer to the life you long for, one tolerable step at a time. Coaching is a bit like magic, and it requires us both to be present, open, connected, and willing to do the work.
