Expand into the life that is asking for you

Somatic coaching for women navigating growth, transition, and identity shifts.

You are capable and self-aware - and ready for expansion without burning out your nervous system. I offer a private, deeply attuned space where growth happens without collapse or over-performance. The women I work with don't just figure out what's next — they become someone who's ready for it.

For women in transition, growing into leaders of their own becoming.

Are you ready for expansion that honors your nervous system?

The work

This is refined nervous system work for women who are ready to expand - without overriding their body.

We build the capacity to hold more: more truth, more visibility, more desire. Without collapse or over-performance.

It is subtle, embodied, and deeply transformative. Growth that feels beautiful in the body. Power that doesn’t override your softness. Expansion with embodied safety.

GRATITUDE

“Working with Elmira allowed me to gently process my birth experiences and reconnect deeply with my postpartum body. She creates a warm, inviting environment that makes sensitive exploration feel safe and empowering.”
— Kate, 38, Art Therapist & Mother
“Before sessions with Elmira, motherhood often felt heavy and exhausting. Now, life feels lighter—I feel deeply connected to myself and my kids, more relaxed, and I’m experiencing more joy and ease every day.”
— Paula, 38, Coach & Mother
“I’ve been working with Elmira for over a year, and it’s had a huge impact. She’s helped me learn to translate the messages of my body and to safely feel my emotions, which has completely transformed the way I experience life.
She creates a deeply safe container and always shows up with so much love, patience, and grounded energy. This work has changed me for the better, and I couldn’t be more grateful to Elmira for all that she does.”
— Tara, 34, Writer & Creative
“Elmira's guidance was gentle yet powerful, helping me find regulation and presence during challenging times. Her somatic tools now form the foundation of my daily self-care routine, allowing me to feel grounded and safe.”
— Maike, 38, Judge & Mother
“Through Elmira’s coaching, I experienced a shift from holding anger inside to openly expressing and celebrating all my emotions. This shift dramatically improved my relationship with myself and those around me.”
— Inga, 38, Therapist & Mother
“After years of traditional talking therapy, I realised something was missing — attention to how my body responds to the world. Working with Elmira helped me stop forcing my body to “make sense” and instead listen to it with curiosity and care.
She was the first person who asked me if I felt safe when I arrived, and who invited my body into the process in such a gentle, intentional way. I often arrived tense or anxious, and always left feeling more relaxed and accepting of myself.
Elmira brings deep knowledge, grounded presence, and a rare ability to emotionally attune without judgment. This work helped me open up in ways I hadn’t been able to before, and I’m incredibly grateful for it.”
- Joana, 33, Creative
