Feeling stuck, not quite like yourself, and ready for something more — but not sure how to get there?

You know what you want. You've tried. But something keeps getting in the way — and by now you know that more willpower and more effort isn't the answer.

You might be here because…

  • You've done the inner work — read the books, maybe done therapy — but something still feels stuck
  • You're tired of fixing, doing more, and trying harder — only to end up in the same place
  • You understand your patterns. Your body hasn't caught up yet.
  • You're done looking for what's wrong with you. You're ready to reconnect with who you actually are — and show up as your authentic self
  • You feel disconnected from yourself and want to find your way back
  • You sense there's more possible. You're just not sure how to get there.

How I work

This is embodied, transformational coaching.

I work with the whole person — not just thoughts and goals, but the nervous system, the body, and the patterns that formed long before you had words for them.

My approach is somatic and trauma-informed. That means we move at the pace your system can actually integrate. We don't force insight. We create the conditions for change to happen — and then it does.

This is not therapy. It's forward-focused, collaborative work grounded in where you are right now and where you want to go.

Ways to Work Together

Primary
1:1 Coaching
Personalized sessions that support real, lasting change. We work with what's present — your body, your patterns, your responses — and build from there toward the life you actually want.

Collaborative, attuned, and paced to what feels possible for you right now.

About me
I'm Sonja.

I'm a Transformational Somatic Coach and Breathwork Facilitator based in Wilmington, NC. My training includes Certified Coach IIN, now Gaja Collective (formerly Chopra Certification), Somatic Trauma-Informed Coaching (Caroline Strawson's School of Healing and Growth, CPD & ICF accredited), and Kessler Breathwork (Connected Circular Breathing).

I work from a trauma- and IFS-informed approach — which means I take your nervous system seriously, and I meet you exactly where you are. I've walked my own healing path. I know what it's like to understand yourself deeply and still feel stuck in the same place. That's the territory we work in together.
