I'm Teodora — a Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner working with clients across the UK and internationally, based in Oxfordshire.
I trained in Somatic Experiencing®, NARM, Neuroaffective Touch, and Transforming Touch because I kept running into the same wall in my own healing and in the people I worked with: understanding a pattern intellectually is not the same as a nervous system believing it's safe. Talk can map the territory. It can't always cross it.
My work exists in that gap: the space between knowing and feeling, between insight and actual capacity. I don't believe survival responses are broken. Freeze, shutdown, hypervigilance these were intelligent, necessary adaptations at the time they formed. The work isn't to override them. It's to help your nervous system update what it's still bracing for.
I hold sessions as a collaboration, not a hierarchy. You are the expert on your own body; I bring training, structure, and a steady, attuned presence to help you access what's already yours.
Nothing is rushed. Nothing is forced. We learn to go exactly as fast as your body can actually metabolise, and no faster.
