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."

One Day You Will Not Be Heartbroken
Though you may have the bitter habit of denying all words of comfort right now, you must hear me on one thing: one day you will not be heartbroken. On that day, whether tomorrow or a thousand tomorrows from now, you will open your eyes and realize they no longer...
And I Tell You This
You ask me why I write about love. Why, in this time when we are watching the world spiral, I spend my words recounting the moments I have slid like honey into another’s chest. And I tell you this: I dreamt I was teaching him how to build a fire to heat his cabin....
Your Love is Power
I firmly believe that one of the most important things we can do in life is to love and be loved. In the opening line of my book, Letters to My Lovers, I share my belief that I count among my greatest successes in life my ability to continuously open to love. Even...
