A gentle, warm space to slow down…
and let your body remember it already belongs.
English-speaking support for grief, shame, stress, burn out, and life transitions—offered gently through somatic presence, deep listening, nature connection, and energy work.
When life feels overwhelming…
You might be grieving losses that feel too big to hold.
You might feel heavy with shame or shadows that feel too dark to name.
You might be carrying too much stress, too much to do, and living with burnt out.
You might be sitting with big questions like “isn’t there more to life than this” or “what does this all mean?” or “why is the world the way it is?”
Or maybe life has taken unexpected twists and turns and you feel like a ship lost at sea.
Maybe you know something’s off but don’t know what exactly it is. Maybe all of this and more.
Whatever it is, you don’t have to do it alone, and you don’t need to perform or have all the words to explain it in order to receive warmth, care, and acceptance here.
You can arrive just as you are, at your pace. I’ll meet you there and support you to sense the ground again.
We move at the pace of moss, not machines.
In our sessions, I bring presence and practices that invite wholeness—not by pushing, but by listening more deeply.
I weave together:
Somatic awareness to tune into your body’s knowing
Mindfulness & nervous system care to restore regulation
Authentic listening so you feel truly witnessed
Nature connection, Reiki & sound healing to soften and root
There’s no need to perform.
No goal to reach.
Just space to tune back in to yourself.
In this space, you don’t need to be “on.”
You don’t need to “have it together”, or know what you need, or even feel ready.
I offer warmth.
Slowness.
Attunement.
Compassion.
Acceptance for you exactly how you are without having to change a thing.
This is a space for your breath to deepen,
for your shame to soften and be witnessed with unconditional regard and tenderness,
and for your body to begin remembering that it already belongs.
Hi, I’m Soren.
I'm a somatic coach and nature-based space holder.
I work with folks who are in between stories—between identities, homes, versions of themselves.
For those who feel deeply.
For those exhausted from performing.
For anyone longing to slow down and remember they already belong — in their body, and on this Earth.
My work is slow, relational, and rooted in deep care.
Like the trees and the ground, I believe you already belong.

We begin exactly where you are—right now. Our first session is all about you sharing what feels most alive or important in your life, whether that’s simply having someone really listen, exploring new tools, or tuning into what your body is telling you. There’s no pressure or agenda—I’m here to support you, and together we’ll find the path that feels right for you.

While I have a background as a licensed mental health counselor, this is not psychotherapy.
Coaching and consulting are not intended to diagnose, assess, or treat mental health conditions, and are not a fit for those currently in crisis. Instead, I offer warm, collaborative support that’s present-centered, practical, and grounded in mindfulness, somatics, and deep listening. We begin with what’s unfolding in your life right now—what feels tender, what’s shifting, and what you sense is ready for change. Our work is about reconnecting with your own clarity and resilience, not labeling or pathologizing. If you’re looking for clinical mental health treatment, I’m happy to help connect you to a therapist or service that can meet that need. -
People come to coaching for many reasons. Some feel stuck or overwhelmed during a life transition. Others are navigating identity questions, relationship changes, or burnout. Some are adjusting to life in a new country or trying to make sense of conflicting parts of themselves.
Common themes I support include:
Navigating a major life transition (new country, career shift, gender journey, parenthood, etc.)
Feeling out of place or like they don’t quite fit in—anywhere
Exploring or questioning their identity (gender, sexuality, cultural, spiritual, or otherwise)
Longing for more authenticity, freedom, and alignment in their life
Seeking clarity about next steps, direction, or purpose
Wanting to break free from people-pleasing, burnout, or survival-mode patterns
Craving a space where they don’t have to explain themselves or translate their experience
Struggling to find belonging in community or relationships
Existential crisis and spiritual awakenings
Reconnecting with their body, intuition, or inner knowing
Trying to build a life that feels meaningful in a world that often doesn’t
Exploring alternative relationship structures or navigating relational change
Seeking grounding and steadiness during a period of uncertainty or grief
Ready to gently unpack the impact of trauma in a non-pathologizing, body-aware space
Longing to slow down, breathe, and listen inward
We move at your pace, and you don’t need to have everything figured out to begin. If it’s heavy on your heart or hard to talk about elsewhere, we can start there.

Some people come away with new language for their experience. Others leave with practical tools to regulate their nervous system, shift long-held patterns, or move through the world with more self-trust and clarity. Our work may include designing daily rhythms, practicing nonviolent communication, creating rituals of connection, or finding the courage to live more honestly in a complex and challenging world.
You don’t have to have it all figured out before starting—part of the work is discovering what healing and wellness mean to you, on your terms.

Most people meet with me once every week or two, especially in the beginning. Some shift to meeting less often once they’ve gotten some traction. A standard session is 50 minutes, but occasionally I offer longer sessions (75–90 minutes) when there’s a need for more space or deeper integration work.
As for how long we work together, that really depends on what you’re navigating and what feels supportive. Some people come in for a few months to work through a transition or decision point. Others stay longer-term because they find it helpful to have a steady space for reflection and growth.
My approach is collaborative, so we’ll find a pacing and duration that aligns with your needs, energy, and goals.

Yes—everything you share with me is confidential. I treat your story with care, meaning I won’t share what you say with others, and I offer a safe, respectful space where all parts of you are welcome.
Many people come to me because they’ve felt judged, unseen, or misunderstood elsewhere. You don’t have to censor yourself here. I don’t offer advice from a distance—I meet you where you are, with presence, honesty, and kindness.
That said, I don’t work with people who are in active crisis or experiencing ongoing suicidal thoughts. If you’re ever at risk of harming yourself or someone else, we’ll pause and work together to find the right support. I’ll never abandon you, but I will make sure you get the care you need to stay safe.

I have a wide range of personal and professional experience working with a vast array of different intersecting cultural identities and expressions. I have worked with people of all different racial and ethnic backgrounds, religions, ages/generations, socioeconomic statuses, disabilities, neurotypes, sexualities, gender identities, relationship orientations, national origins, and political views. I’m someone who is comfortable holding lots of space for nuance, complexity, and polarity. Everything and everyone is welcome. Nothing is too taboo or off limits and you will not be pathologized.
I have extensive experience working with the following communities/cultural contexts:
-LGBTQIA+
-Polyamorous, non-monogamous, open relationships
-Kink and BDSM, highly taboo and stigmatized sexual identities/desires
-Sex workers
-Neurodivergence
-Chronic illness and disability
-1st and 2nd gen immigrants, third culture kids, expats, internationals
-Multiple intersecting marginalized identities
