Born and raised in Moscow, I eventually expanded my creative and geographic horizons by moving to Milan — a place that has shaped how I live, work, and relate to the world. For much of my life, I was searching for answers that traditional therapy couldn’t quite offer. I often felt out of place, disconnected from others, and unsure how to fully express myself.
Everything began to shift when I discovered
polyvagal theory,
somatic trauma therapy, and
embodiment work. These practices opened a path that felt both scientific and deeply human, giving me tools to understand myself, grow, and belong to a community of people exploring similar questions with curiosity and compassion.
Today, as an
embodiment coach, I support others in rebuilding a sense of safety, attunement, and aliveness within their bodies. My approach is gentle, trauma-informed, and grounded in both science and lived experience.
My education & Training include:
- Certification in Embodiment Coaching, by Mark Walsh
- Integrative Somatic Trauma Therapy Certification (ISTTC), The Embody Lab
- The Path to Healing Trauma, with Peter Levine
