About Katharina

As a seasoned sex and relationship therapist with over a decade of international experience, I specialise in supporting individuals and couples from diverse backgrounds. My approach integrates cutting-edge somatic interventions, particularly somatic experiencing, to address deep-seated trauma stored in the body. Through this work, my clients often experience profound shifts, finding freedom and serenity in their bodies and, consequently, in their relational lives.

My training across multiple countries—UK, Canada, Germany, and Greece—has equipped me with a rich understanding of human sexuality and relationships. Fluent in both German and English, I offer a unique perspective that blends somatic, systemic, and psychodynamic modalities. By incorporating insights from attachment theory and neuroscience, I guide clients in navigating the intricate dance of intimacy and autonomy.

In my practice, I specialise in helping couples overcome challenges such as feeling disconnected from their bodies, anxiety, and sexual inhibitions. These issues often manifest as differences in desire, orgasmic and erectile challenges, and jealousy within relationships. Through somatic tools and a robust theoretical framework, I aim to strengthen the mind-body connection, empowering clients to embrace their sexuality confidently and find fulfilment.

In addition to my private online practice, I facilitate workshops and retreats focused on nervous system regulation. These sessions offer practical tools to rewire the nervous system, promoting healing from trauma, including PTSD. My passion for yoga and meditation, particularly in the context of nervous system healing, has led me to train under renowned practitioners like Tina Nance in Bali.

I am committed to ongoing learning and growth, continually seeking opportunities to enhance my skills in nervous system healing and restorative practices. My goal is to provide a safe and transformative space where individuals and couples can embark on a journey of healing, connection, and self-discovery.
