An exploration of the seen and unseen.
A process of becoming…
1:1 sessions of somatic depth coaching where what lives in the body meets what waits in the depths. Where the parts of you that have been waiting quietly begin to speak…and you finally make the shifts you desire.

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 AN EXPERIENCE TO RECREATE YOUR LIFE FROM THE INSIDE OUT.
What this is…
You know what needs to change. You've known for a while.
And yet something keeps pulling you back to the same place. The same exhaustion, the same distance from yourself, the same ceiling you can feel but can't quite name.
This is the work that goes beneath that ceiling. Not through more analysis. 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 right now.
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.
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
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.
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’s been said…
“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”
- Nour, EgyptNddsda
“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 consistently facilitates through the love of her heart. I felt her passion and care throughout the session. She genuinely loves what she does, and it's felt by those who attend her spaces." Maela, UK

£100
3-MONTHS (6 sessions - fortnightly)
£475
For those who need more room to unfold. Space for slower, deeper shifts, without the need to rush.
I recommend working together for 3-months if you’re looking for sustainable shifts that you can take your time in embodying in your daily lives. There are no quick fixes, and there isn’t a set time for this work. Based on the clarity call or one-off session, if the work is trauma-based, I would recommend a minimum of 3 months. You can buy this bundle as many times as you want.
Working across 3-months together, will include:
Free 30-minute Clarity call ahead of the sessions
60 mins every session
Explore current patterns and what’s beneath them
Map your somatic & nervous system responses
Support you in establishing a connection with your unconscious mind through dreamwork, visualisations, etc.
Depending on the goal in mind, map your 3-month journey strategically and design the change
Scan and analyse your current limitations
Create personalised somatic resources that you can use in your day-to-day
Sessions are conducted online via secure video call · Arabic & English available
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.
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.
