Welcome to Soma Wisdom

Soma Wisdom is a space for healing and awakening through the innate intelligence of the body. Through somatic inquiry, movement, and trauma release tools, we learn to listen deeply to the subtle language of the soma and gently downregulate the nervous system, returning to the immediacy of present-moment experience. As we deepen this relationship with the body, a greater sense of clarity and ease begins to emerge, and our lives unfold more naturally and authentically. From this place of embodied presence, authenticity and wholeness arise, along with a felt sense of coming home within ourselves and a deeper trust in the organic unfolding of life.

hello.

Hello, I’m Renata.

I’m a somatic psychotherapist and meditation teacher . My work is devoted to supporting people to awaken to their true nature and live from a place of wholeness and freedom.

I am passionate about self-inquiry as a gateway to wholeness. I believe that what we seek in life already lives within us. Yet through trauma, conditioning, or nervous system dysregulation, we often become disconnected from our bodies and from the deeper intelligence that guides us.

Offerings

  • Hakomi Mindful-Somatic Psychotherapy

    Hakomi Mindful-Somatic Psychotherapy

    Hakomi-based somatic psychotherapy

    A trauma-informed, experiential psychotherapy that uses mindfulness and somatic awareness to uncover and transform unconscious patterns. Grounded in the Hakomi method, these sessions invite a gentle and curious exploration of your inner experience, allowing implicit memories, beliefs, and emotional patterns to emerge into awareness. Through direct contact with the body, this work supports healing, regulation, and emotional integration — restoring a sense of connection, coherence, and wholeness.

  • Tension & Trauma Release (TRE®)

    Tension & Trauma Release (TRE®)

    A simple, powerful tool for nervous system regulation

    A gentle yet powerful practice that supports the release of chronic stress and tension held in the body. By activating the body’s natural tremoring mechanism, TRE allows the nervous system to discharge stored activation in a safe and organic way. Over time, this process can support regulation, resilience, and a return to a more grounded and balanced state, helping the body to move out of patterns of holding and into greater ease.

  • Meditation Courses & Events

    Meditation Courses & Events

    Spaces and teachings for awakening through direct experience

    Alongside individual work, I offer spaces dedicated to the deepening of meditation and insight practice. These include retreats, courses, day retreats, and ongoing practice containers grounded in the Buddha’s teachings and supported through embodied awareness and inquiry. Through direct contact with present-moment experience, this work supports the unfolding of clarity, wisdom, compassion, and a deeper connection to ourselves, others, and life as it is.

Work with Renata

  • “ Renata is an absolutely incredible therapist. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough! She has the gift to make you feel so welcome, seen and heard the moment you meet her. She creates an incredibly safe space for you to drop in, go deep, and fully surrender to the process. I have had incredible insights and experienced a deep transformation during our sessions. “

    Sophie S.

  • “I'm so grateful for the guidance Renata has given me. For a long time I was looking for someone to help me move beyond the state of anxiety and shutdown that I was in. It wasn't until I worked with Renata guiding me, that I was able to tap into what was driving my nervous system dysregulation and constant reactiveness. I feel so much more grounded and peaceful since the somatic healing with Renata. I'd recommend her to anyone struggling with emotional overwhelm or who wants to grow and heal.”

    Schecani

  • “I felt so grateful for the TRE practice yesterday. I feel I take something new and fresh away into my sitting practice from it.

    Renata is a very good teacher, enriched I feel, by her commitment to her own personal work.“

    Kate I.

  • “TRE was such a unique experience from which I am sure I will continue to benefit as I practice regularly. I certainly feel the best I have for quite a while and am so grateful for the way Renata led this simple but profound technique.”

    Maryanne

  • “Renata is a gifted teacher with a rare ability to truly tune in to each individual. She honours people’s unique responses while offering what feels genuinely supportive and appropriate for them.

    Her depth of study in the Dharma is evident, and it’s a joy to receive teachings that are both grounded and deeply informed. I love the spaciousness and authenticity she brings, as well as the way she weaves in an understanding of trauma and the unconscious when working with deep emotional material.

    I especially appreciated the class on the Inner Critic. Above all, Renata truly lives what she teaches—and that is something very special to experience.”

    Deborah B.

  • “I felt that I covered more in five sessions with Renata than I had with any other psychologist or CBT specialist or NLP practitioner in the past.”
