Private Breathwork and Somatic Sessions in San Diego, CA
Looking for a powerful tool to help you heal and transform your life? Look no further than the Three Part Circular Breathwork and somatic sessions with Suzanne Lederer. Suzanne offers personalized one-on-one sessions in person and online. They are tailored to your needs and goals.
Based on Suzanne’s own experience healing happens with mind and body conection. Her sessions blend powerful practices, including:
The Three-Part Circular Breathwork: a powerful technique involving controlled breathing to reconnect with your body and release energetic blockages and stored emotions in the body, and rewire the mind, allowing you to connect more deeply with yourself. Tune into your body’s innate wisdom to process stored experiences and restore balance.
Parts Work: understand the inner “parts” of yourself—like your inner critic, perfectionist or protector—and foster harmony within.
Inner Child Work: reconnect with and nurture your most vulnerable self to heal wounds from the past.
Breathwork, parts and inner child work are deeply interconnected modalities that can synergistically support healing and growth. Breathwork creates the access point, parts work provides the framework for exploration, and inner child work addresses the roots of pain or dysfunction. The synergy of these modalities fosters lasting healing, emotional regulation, and a deep sense of self-compassion.
Why try this type of Three Part Circular Breathwork?
Have you ever felt stuck, despite trying countless healing modalities? Many of the limitations we experience aren’t external—they’re deeply rooted within us. These self-imposed barriers, shaped by past conditioning, often feel safe and familiar. Yet, they can manifest as fear, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, unhealthy habits, or even doubts about your worth and the space you deserve in the world.
What if you could break free from this cycle?Our minds and bodies both store this conditioning, but true healing requires more than just thinking our way through it. It’s about slowing the mind and reconnecting with the body. This is where the transformative power of breathwork comes in. Through breathwork, you’ll drop out of the mental chatter and create a safe space within your body, allowing unprocessed emotions to surface and be released. As these emotions move, old limitations dissolve, revealing the incredible potential and freedom within you.
The best part? All you need to do is breathe. By welcoming the experience instead of resisting it, healing unfolds naturally. Breath by breath, you’ll uncover the version of yourself you’ve been longing to meet.
Why Inner Child and Parts Work for your Healing Journey?
Inner child and parts work are transformative tools for fostering embodied awareness and creating a deeper connection to your authentic self. By combining somatic practices and emotional regulation, this approach offers profound healing benefits for the mind, body, and spirit.
It all begins with awareness. Through inner child and parts work, you learn to identify and understand the various "parts" of yourself—like the inner critic, perfectionist, protector, people pleaser, or overachiever. These parts hold the keys to your emotional patterns, behaviors, and decisions. Recognizing their influence helps you uncover past wounds and traumas that may still be shaping your life.
Compassionate release leads to healing. By creating a safe and supportive environment, you can process and release pent-up emotions like anger, fear, and grief without becoming overwhelmed. This compassionate exploration fosters a deeper self-relationship, reducing self-criticism and helping you appreciate the protective roles even your “negative” parts have played.
Regulation and alignment unlock clarity. Inner child and parts work also teach you to regulate your emotions more effectively. By recognizing when certain parts are "activated," you can pause, ground yourself, and respond intentionally rather than reacting impulsively. This state of balance, often supported by practices like breathwork, activates the ventral vagal nervous system, promoting a sense of safety and social connection.
With improved emotional regulation, you’ll:
Resolve internal conflicts, aligning with your true desires and values.
Make clear, confident decisions free from old patterns.
Heal relationships by addressing projections and unmet needs.
A pathway to wholeness and freedom. This journey isn’t just about managing emotions—it’s about nurturing and healing the wounded parts of yourself, creating a sense of inner harmony. By safely addressing traumatic memories, you can guide parts stuck in the past toward a present filled with possibility.
At the core of this work is the Self—your calm, clear, compassionate center. Through inner child and parts work, you’ll cultivate the courage and confidence to lead your life with balance and purpose.

Investment :
Sessions are, 60 minutes up to 75 minutes & take place remote or in person in the neighborhood of Univercity Heights. I do not accept insurance at this time. However, upon request, I can provide you with an invoice to submit for reimbursement for out of network provider.
I've seen the greatest success and lasting impact with clients who commit to their well-being as a long-term investment. This involves scheduling sessions weekly or bi-weekly (based on finances) for the first 2-3 months and consistently practice the daily emotional exercises and tools I provide.
With that said, I want to be sure that the work and my style aligns with you so after the first session you can decide to commit to on-going care by booking your next session.
**I know my value and my desire is that this work be accesibe to whoever is interested. Most somatic/breathwork practitioners charge $150-275. If you make $50,000 or less a year, please let me know.
**Breathwork is a powerful tool and needs to be facilitated very mindfully with intentional awareness of dissociation and disconnection. So having a guide that is trained with a trauma-informed lens is critical.
Testimony
I first met Suzanne via her breathwork group classes, and soon signed up for one-on-one sessions. I had been to no fewer than 15 traditional talk-based psychologists over 20 years and had only ever found mild success. After working with her for a year, I can say, without any doubt, that these sessions have spearheaded some of the most transformative healing I've experienced in my life. Her unique blend of conversation and breathwork offer a direct path to open my unconscious, confront emotions that I avoid, letting those emotions speak, and then giving them space to heal. I now have a much more regulated emotional landscape and can more calmly manage a whole host of situations and experiences. I truly believe this kind of somatic therapy and breathwork is the future of psychotherapy. - Andrew K
