You already know your patterns. Another explanation isn't going to change them.
It's about learning to actually stay present – with your experience, your emotions, yourself – instead of managing or escaping them again.
Not to feel different.
But to stop waiting until you do.
Apply for MentorshipIf even a few of these resonate, you're in the right place.
The same patterns keep repeating, no matter how hard you try to change them.
Years of healing haven't made your inner experience make sense.
You secretly worry that if people saw the "real" you, they wouldn't accept you.
Conventional therapy has felt limited, like it's missing something you can't name.
You feel caught between different parts of you that seem to want different things.
You know better, and you do it anyway – then feel ashamed for knowing better.
You've sat with plant medicine, maybe many times – and outside the ceremony, you're still stuck.
You sense more aliveness and freedom is possible, you just don't know how to reach it.
Somatic comes from soma, the Greek word for body. This is an inquiry into direct, embodied experience – not thinking about it.
Long before "somatic" became a wellness buzzword, this approach lived in spiritual traditions and indigenous practices worldwide – as a way of accessing what's happening in the body, beneath habitual thought and story.
My work draws equally on modern modalities and ancient practices: therapy, coaching, meditation, ritual, and shamanic work, without being defined by any one of them.
Most healing work assumes something is wrong with you, and the goal is to fix it. I don't work that way.
This work builds your capacity to stay present with what's here – your body, your nervous system, your emotions – without needing to explain it, fix it, or make it go away.
Insight alone rarely changes anything. Real change comes as a natural consequence of a different relationship with what already is.
While each container is shaped around what's actually alive for you, those six weeks tend to move like this:
Building enough safety in your body and nervous system to stay with your experience, instead of managing or escaping it.
Going toward what's actually present – the patterns, the shadow material, the emotions you've learned to avoid – as it shows up, not as a scheduled topic.
Weaving what's shifted into how you live, relate, and choose – so it becomes lived capacity, not just another insight.

Belief and inner-critic work
I notice what's happening in me before I automatically react.
I don't spend three days hating myself after a mistake.
My inner experience finally makes sense.
I no longer betray myself just to avoid disappointing someone.
I don't immediately assume my feelings are wrong.
I've stopped waiting for life to begin once I'm "healed."
I feel lighter just being me, without needing to fix anything.
You're in acute psychological distress and need psychiatric care. This isn't a substitute for that, and I'll say so if it's relevant.
You're expecting to come out completely "healed" or "fixed." That's not what this offers, or what healing is.
You want to stay in what's familiar and comfortable.
You're not willing to look honestly at your own patterns, or sit with your shadow material.
"Sergey holds a space that is deeply attuned, gentle, and honest. Our work has changed the way I relate to myself. I feel more rooted, more resourced, and more able to stay with what’s real. Each class became an invitation to feel without forcing, to explore without judgment, and to stay with myself, even in discomfort."
"Sergey embodies a calming presence - he listens more than he speaks. I experienced the session with him much like a space to connect with my own healing powers. I would recommend his offerings to anyone who wants to take more responsibility for their own process of healing and embodiment of their true self."
"You can feel in his sessions that he really understands the trauma responses from his own experience. He walked the path himself. I feel really safe sharing things I don't share easily with others. The combination of grounding practices and talking makes it perfect for me."
What's included:
Six weekly 1:1 sessions, 90 minutes each, over Zoom
Individualized practices between sessions, shaped to what's alive for you
WhatsApp support through the six weeks and the integration period after
Personalized recommendations - books, practices, and reflections
Somatic & Plant Medicine Practitioner
I guide others on the path toward authenticity and embodied presence.
For the last 15 years, I have walked a deep journey of self-exploration – studying plant medicine, mysticism, indigenous worldviews, eastern spiritual traditions, somatic psychology, and the nervous system.
My work is not theoretical. It is shaped entirely by my own steps in healing severe anxiety, depression, and self-abandonment. Every single teaching and practice I offer is rooted in my direct life experience.
