WAYS WE CAN WORK TOGETHER

Healing from chronic stress, trauma and persistent physical symptoms often requires more than a single tool or approach.

My work integrates mind-body medicine, somatic healing, nervous system regulation and biology to support people in understanding their symptoms and addressing the deeper patterns that may be driving them.

Whether you are seeking personalised support, a structured learning journey or a community space for healing, there are different ways we can work together depending on your needs and the level of guidance you are looking for.

MIND-BODY & SOMATIC COACHING

Personalised support for those wanting to understand and address mind-body symptoms, nervous system dysregulation and the deeper patterns that may be driving persistent symptoms.

Many people I work with have spent years searching for answers to symptoms such as chronic pain, fatigue, digestive issues or anxiety, often feeling confused when medical tests show little explanation.

Through mind-body education, somatic practices and compassionate coaching, we explore how stress, trauma and protective nervous system responses can influence physical symptoms.

This work focuses on addressing the root patterns behind symptoms rather than simply managing them, supporting the nervous system in restoring regulation, resilience and trust in the body.

There are two main ways to engage in this work:

One-2-One Coaching

Individual coaching offers personalised guidance for those wanting to explore their symptoms more deeply and address the root patterns that may be driving persistent mind-body symptoms.

This work usually takes place through personalised coaching packages, allowing space for meaningful exploration and gradual nervous system change rather than quick symptom fixes.

Our work embodies a Mind–Body–Biology approach, integrating:

• mind-body education and neuroscience
• trauma-informed somatic nervous system practices & emotional regulation
• an understanding of the biological impact of chronic stress and trauma

Together we explore how stress, emotional patterns and nervous system responses influence your symptoms, while building practical tools for regulation, resilience and healing.

This approach supports deep and sustainable change, helping the body move out of protective patterns and restore greater balance in life and health.

You can learn more about the science and mechanisms behind this work on the Mind-Body Symptoms page.

Somatic Embodiment Community

A supportive 10-month group container, limited to a small circle of participants, designed for people wanting to engage in deeper mind-body and somatic healing work within a safe and compassionate community.

This space combines education, somatic practices and group support to help participants gently regulate the nervous system and rewire patterns without overwhelm.

Inside the community you will receive:

• a monthly Somatic Embodiment Movement class
• a monthly teaching session or masterclass exploring key themes in mind-body healing
• a monthly Q&A integration session for reflection and questions
• curated resources to support nervous system regulation and mind-body rewiring
• a small group environment that encourages co-regulation, connection, support and safety.

Working within community allows people to experience healing not only individually, but also through shared learning, relational safety and connection with others on a similar path.

The next cohort aims to start in the Spring – Date TBC.

SOMATIC LEADERSHIP COACHING

For high-achieving professionals, entrepreneurs and purpose-driven leaders who want to create success without sacrificing their wellbeing and relashionships.

Many people operating in leadership roles (personally and professionally) being highly driven, sensitive and deeply committed to their work. Over time, patterns such as perfectionism, over-responsibility and chronic stress can place a heavy burden on the nervous system and eventually lead to burnout, fatigue or physical symptoms.

Somatic Leadership Coaching integrates nervous system awareness, emotional regulation and values-based reflection to support a more sustainable and aligned way of leading and living.

Together we explore how your nervous system patterns influence the way you work, relate and make decisions, while building the capacity to lead from greater clarity, presence and resilience.

This work supports a shift from leading through tension, pressure and survival patterns, often shaped by fear, past experiences and protective behaviours, toward leading from a place of regulation, expansion and alignment.

As your nervous system becomes more regulated, it becomes possible to lead your life, your work and your relationships with greater:

• clarity and grounded decision-making
• emotional intelligence and relational depth
• creativity, presence and authenticity
• connection with purpose and meaning

This work can support you to:

• recognise and shift patterns of burnout and overdrive
• regulate stress and maintain sustainable energy
• reconnect with purpose, creativity and personal values
• develop emotional resilience and embodied leadership

It can also be a powerful next step for individuals who have recovered from mind-body symptoms and are now exploring how to rebuild their lives in alignment with fulfilment, purpose and freedom.

Ioga e somática

Gentle, nervous system-aware practices designed to support regulation, body awareness and reconnection with the body.

This work brings together yoga, mindfulness and somatic movement, each offering a different pathway into nervous system regulation and embodied awareness.

Yoga sessions are approached in a slow, compassionate and non-performance-based way, integrating breath, mindful movement and awareness to support grounding and connection with the body.

Alongside this, práticas de movimento somático offer a more exploratory and intuitive approach, focusing on sensing the body from within and supporting the nervous system to shift out of patterns of tension and protection.

Through these practices, participants learn to:

• listen to and understand their body’s signals
• release patterns of tension and holding
• develop interoceptive awareness (the ability to sense the body)
• support nervous system regulation and emotional integration

This work can be particularly supportive for people experiencing:

• chronic stress or burnout
• nervous system dysregulation
• fatigue or persistent physical symptoms
• difficulty slowing down or reconnecting with the body

Sessions are offered through monthly Somatic Embodiment Movement classes, workshops and retreats, creating spaces where people can reconnect with their body in a safe, supportive and non-judgemental environment.

‘It has been a pleasure to work with Sara over the past six months.

I felt instantly at ease with Sara, and her unique way of listening, holding space and asking exactly the right questions to patiently guide me towards answers.

I came to Sara with sleep issues that had been present for well over ten years, and for which I had tried so many things. With Sara’s expert guidance, my sleep is hugely improving, and it’s becoming something I think about and less and less- which I wasn’t sure was possible before! I’m moving through so much more than sleep issues, though. I feel much more like myself, and like I’m getting my life back again after years of not feeling like me.

I would highly recommend working with Sara, I’ve seen huge changes in how I show up for myself, and others, and I know the work we’re doing will continue to impact all areas of my life going forward.’

I can’t recommend Sara Santos and her mind–body work highly enough. Working with Sara has completely changed the way I relate to my body, especially in relation to my endometriosis.

Before working with her, I lived with constant tension, flare-ups, and pain that felt overwhelming and unpredictable. Sara’s approach helped me understand how deeply my nervous system, emotions, and body are connected. Through her gentle, intuitive guidance, I learned how to listen to my body rather than fight it.

Over time, I noticed a real shift — by approaching it with curiosity instead of panic, my pain became less intense, flare-ups eased, and I felt calmer and more supported within myself. What stood out most was how safe and seen I felt in her sessions. Sara has an incredible ability to hold space with compassion, knowledge, and care, making even difficult experiences feel approachable and empowering.

Her work didn’t just help my physical pain — it gave me tools, awareness, and confidence that I carry into daily life. If you’re dealing with chronic pain, endometriosis, or feel disconnected from your body, Sara’s work is truly transformative.

Nicole Mudogo, Somatic Coach

Each exercise was signaling my body that I am safe

The sense of calm and relaxation that came after the practices was something I haven’t felt in a long time

I felt different in the morning because I was able to slow down and listen to my body unlike other days where I would rush and feel like escaping from my body

I attended Sara’s somatic embodiment class for the first time this week. I didn’t know what to expect, didn’t know what exactly somatic embodiment is and what a class like that entails. I had some experience of somatic exercise therapy but Sara’s class was different. It really made me take time for myself, come out of my head and really tune in to my body. I had been suffering from aches and pains for some time and I felt uncomfortable initially but I just tuned in to my body and allowed my body to talk to me and soften. Sara’s gentle voice and instructions were lovely, allowing me to relax, observe and just be. I enjoyed the different kinds of ‘exercises’ she included in this session; sitting and standing, movement, touch and using my eyes to observe the safe environment around me, as well as talking to my body. After the session I felt relaxed and less achy and went straight to her booking page to book my next session with her! I’m really looking forward to it. I can highly recommend your classes to anyone who wants and needs to take time out of their head and really connect with their body. And I think that is everyone really in our busy and rushed society!

“As técnicas que a Sara me apresentou reduziram drasticamente os meus níveis de dor. Estou grata pela sua experiência e empatia em cada sessão“

Debi Simpson

"Participei no workshop da Sara com uma expetativa quase clínica de trabalhar bolas de ténis ao longo das linhas da fáscia - o que experimentei, no entanto, foi uma libertação mente-corpo maravilhosamente imersiva e totalmente integrada. Saí da sessão com um corpo e uma mentalidade completamente diferentes e um estado de relaxamento que ultrapassa tudo o que já senti depois de uma massagem profunda ou de uma aula de ioga restauradora. Foi como se a teia de tensões que me cobria todo o corpo se tivesse dissolvido. Não posso agradecer o suficiente à Sara pela sua sequência profundamente imersiva e por partilhar o seu conhecimento sobre este poderoso método de libertação.“

PERSONALISED & INTEGRATIVE APPROACH

While these are the main ways to work with me, each person’s journey is unique. Depending on your needs, our work may also integrate complementary approaches such as:

• mindfulness-based CBT practices
• self-myofascial release
• Reiki energy work

These approaches are integrated as part of coaching, classes or workshops rather than offered as standalone treatments.
