Welcome

I’m Nora Mertens, a somatic practitioner based in Berlin, with over 10 years of professional experience in body-based work.

I offer Somatic Body- and Process Work, including intuitive body readings, somatic coaching, systems work and holistic touch, and Relational Systems Work.

In my sessions, you are welcome exactly as you are. I hold a safe, body-based, trauma-informed and relational space for everything that wants to be seen, felt and understood. I meet you in what is present, even when it feels unclear, overwhelming or difficult to access.

I look at you as a whole human being, read bodies, patterns, and energies deeply, and I offer clear, attuned feedback. My work is rooted in presence and relational space-holding. Not as a neutral observer, but as an embodied, empathic guide.

In this resonant field, transformation unfolds through being seen, felt and deeply received.

If you are looking for support in understanding your inner and outer world and your body more deeply, and in reconnecting with your truth – I would love to hear from you.

For much of my life I have been deeply engaged with the human condition – through my personal experience, professional practice, and extensive study in body-based, scientific and spiritual disciplines.

I’m a licensed Heilpraktiker for Psychotherapy, Ayurveda consultant, yoga teacher, massage therapist, coach, anthropologist (M.A.), and mother of two.

I have been on my own healing journey. While I guide others, I continue to grow. What I offer is real, felt and lived.

LGBTQIA+ affirming – all identities are warmly welcome.

I work in Berlin Kreuzberg, in German and English.

MY OFFERS

Somatic Body- and Process Work

A trauma-informed, body-based, welcoming space for self-exploration and integration. Together, we explore what is present – in your body, your nervous system, and your inner and outer world, within a safe, welcoming and attuned field, and find out what is needed.

I support you in reconnecting with your essence, and guide you back into a felt sense of safety, alignment and empowerment.

I read bodies deeply and intuitively, and work with presence and precision – integrating touch, energy work, breath and movement, parts work, resourcing, as well as systemic and Ayurvedic principles.

90 min.: €145 (sliding scale €130-165)

After an initial session, I generally work in 3-6 month containers. Fees here.

“Through her intuitive and deeply integrated work I have accessed parts of myself that have otherwise eluded me.” P.

"Working with Nora has been a truly transformative experience. I didn't just find relief from physical pain, I began a journey of healing. Nora created a space that felt safe, compassionate and free of judgment, allowing me to process things I had never been able to before. I feel lighter, more grounded, and more connected to myself than I did before." Ani

“Nora holds exactly the right balance between professional guidance and human closeness. She creates a space where even the feelings I would otherwise most want to run away from are allowed to be there. I notice the change above all in the way I relate to myself and speak to myself. Through our work, I have discovered a strength and inner power within me that gives me the confidence today to meet future challenges as well. I feel more warmth, love, and care within myself — for others, but above all, for myself." E.

“The physical symptom didn’t just ease – something shifted in how I relate to myself.” Jana

"You get the feeling that you are being touched and communicated with in equal parts. The shared sense of awareness opens pathways that I don’t know how to open on my own; that’s why I come here." P.

Relational Systems

Mapping the Invisible – A trauma-informed space for couples, families, friends, polycules. collaborators, and other relational systems.

Many of the forces shaping our relationships remain invisible, yet they profoundly influence the way we relate to ourselves and each other. Through embodied experience, we slow down, listen to the wisdom of the body and the wider system, and create enough safety for what is present to reveal itself.

Together, we explore what might support greater clarity, safety, integrity, and choice—whether that leads toward deeper connection, clearer boundaries, or a different way of relating.
