1:1 Somatic Depth Coaching, in English or Arabic
For those who have known something needs to shift in their life for a long time and can't seem to get past the ceiling. It doesn't happen overnight, but all it takes is willingness & a choice.
-
Every week, we will have 60 mins session & there will be 2 weeks on integration
-
You will have direct access to me via my coaching platform (Pensight) for any questions or urgent check-ins for 12 weeks
-
Not everyone is the same. So, I personalise your go-to resources based on what we are working on - whether they are therapeutic, breathwork, or practical resources. We’ll work together to fit your goals. They would be saved in your dedicated Google Drive with lifetime access.
1:1 work that goes beneath the talking you've already done, through the body, into what the unconscious has been holding all along. Sessions in Arabic or English, with a practitioner who won't ask you to translate your culture first.

Recreate your life from the inside out...You deserve to feel safe in your body & mind.
What this is…
The survival patterns that once kept you safe are now the very things keeping you stuck. And somewhere underneath the high functioning, the producing, the showing up for everyone, there is a version of you that is ready to stop surviving and start actually living.
This is a transformative 12-weeks of 1:1 sessions where we work with these survival patterns, instead of fighting them. We work with your body, mind, and soul to re-mind you of your own power, to start feeling your emotions again, take that risk, or feel safe in your body.
People have come from all walks of life after feeling exhausted from running and wanting to live the life they always dreamt of. Because our outer reality reflects our inner world.
This is the work that goes beneath the surface. Not through more talking. Through the body. Through what the unconscious has been holding, waiting for you to finally turn toward it.
What this is not…
A space for quick fixes or advice-giving. If you want rapid answers, there are other approaches better suited for that.
A passive experience. This work asks something of you between sessions as much as within them. That's not a warning; it's what makes it work.
A replacement for psychiatric care. If you're in an acute mental health crisis, I'd gently encourage you to get that support first. This work sits beautifully alongside it.
You won't have to explain yourself here. Your culture, your background, and your language are not context to manage before the real work begins. They are part of the work.
Where every step upward towards the higher unconscious is matched by a step downward into the lower unconscious
Every step of integration or spiritual ascension (upward) requires a corresponding step into the depths of one's own psychology (downward).
You cannot fully ascend without grounding yourself by understanding and embracing the "depths," ensuring a balanced, holistic development rather than a spiritual bypass.
This is for you if:
You “function” well from the outside, and yet you feel like the light is switched off inside. You are Burnt. Out. and now you want to take your time to heal/ recover and make the shifts needed to expand your capacity to create a more aligned life.
You are looking for a cross-cultural, trauma-informed practitioner who can hold truths about systemic oppression, patriarchal, and cultural nuances, without having to explain. Especially if you’re from the SWANA region.
Deep down, you know this isn’t all you can get from your life. You have a feeling like something is stopping you from experiencing your life fully and doing all the things you dream of, and in need of clarity.
You want to uncondition yourself from so many learned and conditioned limitations that limited your perspective of the world in different areas of your life (career, relationships, self-image, etc.)
You know your past has stopped you in your tracks so many times, and now you are ready to grieve it, honour it, and use it as fuel for the future you want to build.
You are a trauma or complex trauma survivor, and you are in a space where you want to work on reclaiming your own agency & voice - and experience feeling safe in your body (again).
What holds this work
A descent into what is awaiting.
A return with more.
Each session follows the intelligence of what arises between us. It does not follow a script, but a listening. There are movements that tend to recur, like waypoints on the spiral.
In addition to my training in Somatics, Regulation Strategies & Embodiment. I’m training as a Transpersonal Integrative Psychotherapist (UKCP Registered) with active therapeutic clients. These are the pillars of my practice:
Your nervous system has a story. Long before you could put words to your experiences, your body was already learning how to stay safe. We work with those patterns; not to override them, but to understand them, and gently create space for new ones. Polyvagal Theory
Not everything can be reached through words. Sometimes we use imagery, visualisation, mythology, or creative expression to access what language hasn't been able to touch. This isn't unusual - it's often where the deepest movement happens. Creative Imagination: art, psychodrama, visualisation, mythology
You won't have to explain yourself here. Your culture, your background, & your language are not context to manage before the real work begins. They are part of the work. This practice is built to hold the full complexity of who you are: including the nuances of SWANA culture, systemic pressures, and intergenerational weight. Integrative & Culturally Competent practice.
If spirituality is part of how you make meaning, it belongs here too. This work doesn't impose a framework. But it doesn't ask you to leave that part of yourself at the door either. We meet you whole. Transpersonal & Energetics-aware practice
The shift you’ll experience?
After three months of this work, the people I work with report some version of this:
◉ Their sleep changes. The wired-but-tired feeling lifts, and they're actually rested when they wake.
◉ The hypervigilance softens. The constant low-grade scanning for what might go wrong, the inability to fully relax in a room, the way the body holds itself ready even when nothing is happening. That eases.
◉ They start being able to want things again. Specifically. Actually wanting it. From the body, knowing that they can have bigger dreams and to achieve them is a realistic possibility.
◉ Their reactivity drops in the rooms that used to spike it. The board meeting. The email from the senior partner. Eventually, even the conversation with their mother becomes less of a thing because the nervous system is no longer rigged for it.
◉ They feel themselves take up space differently. Sit in their chairs differently. Speak from a different place. The presence is felt by other people before it's named by them.
◉ They begin to trust their own knowing again. After years of overriding it, doubting it, running it past five other people first. The knowing becomes legible, and then it becomes load-bearing.
I work at the intersection of the body and the unconscious, where what we cannot yet say is already being held in the tissues, the breath, the impulse that moves before the mind catches up. This is the culmination of somatic training, yoga & breathwork accreditation & facilitation, and psychotherapy training.
My lived experience is shaped by my upbringing in the SWANA region, history of complex trauma, and career background in high-pressure corporate environments in management consulting & tech policy, and humanitarian work. I offer all sessions in both Arabic and English.
Love notes ♡
“Suzy is a fantastic guide and space holder. She is very skilled at making you feel at ease, and super ethical and transparent throughout the entire session. She expertly guides you, moving at your own pace. She is trauma-informed super knowledgeable about CPTSD, which really shines through during the session. She met me exactly where I was throughout the entire session, gently prompting me with questions to explore feelings and sensations that would arise. I cannot wait to experience more of her healing magic. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a safe space to explore their body, or anyone looking for support in capable and patient hands”

“The session was wonderful and very helpful for me. During the exercises, I felt like I was releasing some of the fatigue and tension I had been carrying. As I was touching my body during the exercises, it felt as if I was shaking off a heavy weight and letting the exhaustion leave my body. Suzan is wonderful and has a good way of explaining and conveying feelings.”
-Alexandra, UK
"Suzan did an incredible job leading us through two workshops over 2025, one for activists on mental health, and the other an interactive somatic practice at the Horniman Museum. In both times, she brought us into the space with intentionality and continued to act as an anchor as we explored sensitive and difficult topics throughout the workshops. Her activities were fantastic for attendees who were new to any form of somatic experiencing, keeping them accessible but still very effective. The feedback we received on the workshops were fantastic, and a real community was formed by the attendees, thanks to Suzan’s incredible skills in creating connection and safe vulnerability."

Our sessions are only a few hours from your overall life. In ordert to train our mind and body into the new reality, we need to integrate our new habits on a daily basis.
-
Yes, actually, I come from a background of 12 years in corporate, working in management consulting & tech policy. I’m very familiar with the demands and the pressure of that environment.
-
Absolutely! This is exactly why I created this space. To show individuals who experienced trauma or complex trauma, that it is possible to recreate their lives beyond their past.
-
Absolutely, we can assess at the end of the 12-weeks and see the best way forward, you might need a break in between :)
Hi (أهلاً) friend, I’m Suzan!
I do this work because I believe that regardless of what we have been through, we hold the potential to recreate our lives on our own terms. Beyond the limitations we inherited, absorbed, and somewhere along the way mistook for truth.
The path there requires descent…into the depths, while keeping a foot in the outside world so we don't lose ourselves in what we find. We do this together. Your true Self, your grief, the formless things that don't yet have words. All of it, together.
As an Arabic-speaking practitioner, I am committed to bringing this knowledge into Arabic, fully and without dilution. People from the SWANA region should not have to translate their circumstances before the real work begins. And we cannot do this work honestly without naming what systemic oppression does to a body, a psyche, a life. We do not live in silos.
I have a background of 12 years in corporate in management consulting and tech policy with firms such as EY, BCG, and Meta. Then, I made the shift at 31 into the mental health field, and I’m the co-founder of Collective Circles, an initiative where we provide mental health and psychosocial support workshops to displaced Sudanese women in partnership with international organisations in countries neighbouring Sudan. So far, we’ve worked with 200+ women in Arabic. If anything I take from working with these amazing women is that they always say, “Wow, I was finally able to sleep throughout the night.”, which made me realise that all we need is to be seen, heard, and held - in safety & trust.
If you've found your way here, something in you is already moving. That is the beginning.
I'll see you on the other side.
