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?

Many of us have tried different healing modalities but still feel stuck. Many of the limitations we place on ourselves, are created from within. Our limitations and conditioning can keep us stuck because they are safe and familiar. They can illicit fear, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, unhealthy behaviors, and doubt of who we are in the world and the space we deserve to take up, keeping us stuck in a fixed mindset of beliefs. It’s not just our minds that store our conditioning; our body does too. You have to slow down your mind so you can get into your body to heal. This is why Breathwork is so critical to the healing process. If we drop out of controlling the mind and feel safe in the body, unprocessed emotions will move, limitations will be healed uncovering the possibility that lives within you! We don’t have to do anything but breathe, welcome it, versus resist it. Healing will then happen!!

Why inner child and parts work?

Embodied awareness and the ability to regulate one's emotions and nervous system more effectively offer numerous benefits. It begins with self-awareness and understanding, helping individuals identify and comprehend the different "parts" of themselves, such as the inner critic, perfectionist, protector, people pleaser, and overachiever. This awareness fosters a deeper understanding of internal conflicts and patterns that influence emotions, behaviors, and decisions, which supports emotional healing by providing a framework to address past wounds and traumas held by these parts. By releasing pent-up emotions like anger, fear, or grief in a safe and compassionate way, individuals can cultivate a more compassionate self-relationship, reducing self-criticism and appreciating the purpose served by all parts, even those perceived as "negative."

This process also enhances emotional regulation by teaching individuals to recognize and take a pause when certain parts are "activated" and to respond rather than reacting impulsively. Grounding, getting into the safe and social, ventral vagal nervous system, supports better regulation and integration of these parts. Improved decision-making and knowing what you do want, is another outcome, clarifying internal conflicts allows for alignment with true desires and values, leading to confident and clear choices. Healing relationships becomes possible by recognizing how internal dynamics influence external interactions, allowing individuals to identify projections, unmet needs, or protective behaviors in their relationships.

This journey empowers individuals to nurture and heal wounded or burdened parts of themselves, facilitating a sense of wholeness and inner harmony. It also provides a safe approach to explore and resolve traumatic memories without overwhelm, helping parts stuck in the past move forward. Ultimately, this process cultivates a deep connection with the Self, enabling it to lead with calmness, clarity, courage, and compassion, and creating a balanced, centered approach to life.

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

**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.
