Through somatic healing, I guide you to go from having an anxious mind, fearing change, and suffering from childhood trauma… to experiencing the freedom of a calm mind, greater awareness of self, and healing past patterns.

Before I discovered the
power of embodiment I was:

• having difficulty maintaining healthy, reciprocal relationships

• stuck in patterns I didn’t know how to get out of

• thinking there was something wrong with me

• blaming and shaming myself & others

• feeling disconnected from my intuition

• not able to trust myself

• unsure of my path forward

I was feeling stuck, hurt, confused, unlovable; and I had a strong feeling that traditional talk therapy wasn’t the answer.

I went on a search for an embodiment practitioner or somatic therapist but struggled finding one. So I decided to learn it for myself and took a life-changing course with The Focalizing Institute.

I discovered that embodiment is revolutionary.

Rather than pushing away our painful feelings—the way that society has taught us to, and continuing to struggle with the pain — we are instead inviting them towards us and allowing them to move through us.

By shining a light on the pain, we can transmute, transform, alchemize, and have it disappear for good. Creating permanent shifts in perspective.

I’ve been where you are and I get it.
I also know it is possible to:

• Feel at peace within yourself, living with a calm mind

• Feel worthy of your true self by accepting and loving all parts of you

• Have healthy, intimate, rewarding relationships & friendships

• Live life from a place of no shame and no blame

• Embrace every moment with awareness and make choices that are aligned with your body and all of your being

• Trust your intuition and follow it, rather than your mind

• Know when certain feelings are yours and when they are not yours so you can stay within your boundaries

• Feel clarity in what actions to take in your life

• Heal past childhood trauma wounds and move past them for good

• See challenges that arise as healing and growth opportunities

Take a moment and imagine yourself…

You find yourself in a moment of a trigger, but instead of getting stuck in your head about it, you take a moment to close your eyes and breath and feel into your body. You notice your body reacting, you experience waves of emotions coming and going… yet you don’t associate yourself with any of it. You allow it all to be there.

You notice and breathe. You open your eyes and smile, because you’ve realized that you moved past the trigger and did not react the same way you once did. You look at this moment with total awareness through your body and not getting lost in your mind.

With this awareness, you feel empowered to speak up and set boundaries or get curious about this trigger and what or who flipped it on. You might think, “Hm, thats interesting. Something to explore.” You’re able to notice what is yours and what isn’t yours.

You feel confident in how you feel and are able to express it. You’re able to move through your day like this. You come across a decision you need to make, you tune into your body and make one that feels truly aligned. Continuing to learn through all of your experiences and growing from all of it.

Does this sound like you?
You are wanting to…

• Move past a painful relationship and let it go

• Attract an aligned & available partner, as well as other relationships

• Feel secure and stable within yourself

• Feel at home in your body and develop a nurturing relationship with it

• Find joy and live a vibrant life

• Align with your soul's true purpose and live a life of deeper meaning and fulfillment

• Embrace your authentic self and feel empowered to live in alignment with who you truly are

• Release chronic tension in the body

• Get out of your head and instead be present in your body and life

• Discover where you are holding trauma in your body and release it

• Remove blocks from enjoying life and trying new things

• Be at peace with the past

Then Somatic Healing can be really supportive for you.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

Healing happens in layers, with each session providing an opportunity to release deeper patterns held in the body or explore new intentions as they arise. Healing is not just about resolving trauma—it’s about rediscovering your soul’s truth and stepping into the fullness of who you are meant to be. I offer this as part of my 1:1 coaching container to get to the root of what your body is holding.

DURING OUR TIME TOGETHER:

• I’ll help you explore areas of your life where you’re seeking clarity or support, set clear intentions, and connect more deeply with your inner wisdom while being held in a sacred, safe, and trauma-informed container

• We’ll explore anything that’s standing in the way of you living in alignment, allowing you to move from a place of anxiety and doubt to a place of inner peace and confidence in your path

• I’ll teach you about embodiment and give you practices to integrate embodiment into your life — you’ll walk away being more in tune with yourself

• As you align with your body’s wisdom, you begin to live with more clarity, intentionality, and ease

• You’ll leave sessions feeling more grounded, connected, clear, and supported in your journey toward transformation

DURING THE SOMATIC HEALING SESSIONS:

• I’ll guide you through a grounding meditation to help you move out of your mind and into the wisdom of your body, where deeper insights reside.

• Together, we’ll explore stored memories, emotions, or sensations, allowing your body’s natural healing processes to unfold.

• You’ll gain meaningful insights and begin to release patterns of tension, anxiety, or past trauma

“After having 2 sessions with Masha, I was able to gain so much clarity around difficult decisions I needed to make by returning to the body. I see where I disconnect from the body and get stuck in the mind often, and how that not only creates blocks in my personal life but also in my professional life." — Maria, NJ

🌺 🌺 🌺

“Masha is an intuitive Healer who guided me through multiple early life traumas to finally integrate the memories of my past and relieve me of my chronic anxiety and depression. Much of my healing came from integrating my broken parts into a whole person, able to manage my day-to-day life with a sense of peace and joy. Masha is truly a gifted healer with skill and compassion for anyone suffering from the trauma of life and living. Somatic Focalizing is a life-changing resource, helping me to realize my best possible self.” — Thomas, CA

🌺 🌺 🌺

“Masha's work is gentle and profound. After her sessions, I have great insights and feel changes at the level of my body. Focalizing is a gentle way to heal deep emotional issues that have existed in the subconscious since childhood. Masha puts together several modalities in a beautiful combination of helpful information for the conscious mind and deep somatic work for the unconscious. I highly recommend Masha's sessions if you want to let go of mental, emotional, and physical blocks preventing you from living a purposeful life.“ —Masha, San Francisco

Testimonials

“I recently worked with Masha, who guided me through a focalizing session. I had had no experience with this kind of thing beyond self-guided meditation, and this came as a surprise. Masha was very accommodating throughout, which meant I was relaxed and could make full use of the process. I experienced two very notable shifts during the short session and I came away with a refreshed perspective on the business I am running. Would recommend anyone give this a try!” — Alex, Poland

From Krista:

“I wish I had the words to describe how powerful and healing my Focalizing sessions were with Masha. I had never heard about focalizing until Masha recommended I give it a try and I am so glad that I did.  

We conducted our focalizing session via Zoom. Masha started the session by talking with me and asking what my intention for healing was. I talked to her about some of the things I'd been going through and together we came up with an intention that was crystal clear to focus our session. She then guided me through a journey of focusing my awareness into my body and the sensations and feelings that were arising in the moment. We started with a grounding meditation, and once I was relaxed, she had me describe some of the sensations I was noticing. She guided me through different techniques of responding and relating to these different messages I was receiving from my body. For example, a tight spot in my neck which always seemed to be a trouble spot became a message from my body that I need to let go, which couldn't have been more perfect advice for what I was going through at the time. I had never felt such a profound connection between what I was feeling physically with what I was experiencing emotionally. It was a message from my body that my mind wasn't willing to accept.

Focalizing is such a personal and individualized experience that it is difficult to articulate how meaningful and powerful these sessions were for me. I appreciated how intuitive Masha was as she guided me through this process. I felt completely held and safe to trust her guidance. I highly recommend booking a session and giving this a try. I truly felt as if I received years of therapy, with the most intuitive guidance in a matter of three sessions. If you're at all curious, give it a try!  You are in good hands.” — Krista, Brooklyn

Somatic Healing with Ceremonial Cacao

One of my favorite offerings is combining Ceremonial Cacao at the beginning of any healing session, especially with Somatic Healing.

Introducing Ceremonial Cacao with Somatic Healing allows for a much deeper healing experience, where you are not just connecting to your inner intelligence, but you also have the support of a plant medicine and the spirit of Cacao whom I call “Mama Cacao”. Ceremonial Cacao is an entheogen and helps open up the heart, allowing for a richer and deeper experience and connection to your soul in a gentle yet profound way. Cacao on it’s own is very grounding and an embodiment medicine.

If you’re interested in bringing Ceremonial Cacao into your sessions, let me know when you book your session and have the cacao ready at the start.

If you want to learn how to make cacao, start by checking out my cacao page for more information on where to get it and how to make it.
