Befriend your body. Rewrite the story of your life.
Hello –
I’m Sonja Semyonova, and I’m a somatic intimacy coach who helps people who are fed up with modern love regain their ability to trust again.
Letters to my Lovers: A Memoir of Love, & Loss
This book is for anyone who wants to believe in love again. But not love the way it’s being sold. This is not about fairy tales and Hollywood romances, but trusting the true nature of love, one that is as glorious as it is brutal.
In 25 intensely personal love letters and an essay that offers an alternative to modern romance, you’ll learn what it means to risk everything for love and live to tell the tale. More than just secrets from the bedroom, this book is a guide to creating real intimacy in an increasingly closed-off world.

In Your Words
“It is so refreshing and humbling to receive healing from someone who walks you home to your own medicine within your heart. That’s all we could ever ask for. To walk each other home to the truth within.”

I’m Sonja.
I’m a writer and somatic intimacy coach, and I’m on a mission to revive your trust in love.
The start and end point of this trust fall? Giving you the tools to let your body be your guide.
As a person who grew up with tons of mixed messages around the value and purpose of my body (didn’t we all?), I’ve dedicated my life to understanding the power that exists inside this vessel. Over the years, I’ve studied trauma healing, intuitive energy work, mythology, somatic sex education, erotic expression, kink, witchcraft, mythology, narrative healing, yoga, Ayurveda, herbal medicine, and so much more (if I’m not studying something, I’m probably dead).
Here’s what I’ve found: Your body’s signals are your access point to your inner wisdom, intuitive guidance, self-expression, life purpose, and more. But alongside that exists a vast array of stories – mental and emotional constructs – that can help or hurt you.
My work is about helping you sort out the truth from the falsehoods that live in your felt experience. This allows you to trust how you feel in the presence of another person, ask for what you want without apology, and maintain a rock solid foundation no matter who or what comes your way.
If you’re ready to experience the kind of intimacy you’ve always dreamed of (and leave the rest aside) sign up for a free 30-minute call.

In Your Words
“I am a changed person because of Sonja and so are my relationships.”
"I was surprised by how well Sonja really listened to me, and not just my words. She is present, and thus can find the deeper expression among all the rambling and 'I don’t knows.'"
"Sonja is a wise, authentic guide teaching deep and mind-blowing truths using a fun, light-hearted approach.
After each session, I feel more in touch with my intuition and filled with optimism."
The Journal
Beyond the healing era
I’ve been in my healing era for the better part of three decades. I’ve wept in classrooms as I released generations of trauma from my womb. I’ve driven two hours through the Mexican countryside to have a healer spit mezcal on my back. I’ve sung myself home in sweat...
How not to fear falling in love
Here’s a bittersweet pill on your screen: We cannot love without losing. I discovered this when I was writing my book, Letters to My Lovers. And when I first felt this sword in my throat, it stung. Until I learned it didn’t have to. So let me show you how to swallow...
Stop searching for your soulmate
Why this modern day fairy tale keeps you from your true power in love. Whenever I hear a client talk about wanting to find their soulmate, their twin flame, their divine union, the “one,” I know exactly the path our work will go. Namely: expanding their understanding...
“On this path effort never goes to waste, and there is no failure.”
