Designed for Somatica students who want to further develop their Somatica Method skills and better support their clients’ growth, this training will help you gain a deeper familiarity with character strategies (and, by extension, yourself). It will also allow you to better see what’s going on in the lives of your partner, family, friends, and clients.
Why Is Learning About Character Strategies So Important?
-
It has been profound to discover the character strategies I have been using.
Working through unearthing how these strategies have impacted my life, gave me a deeper understanding of how to extend compassion to myself and my clients. Beyond that – relationships that had roadblocks to connection shifted substantially. By having a deeper understanding of the strategies we build in response to early childhood wounds, my compassion has increased.
– Jaime, Character Strategies training graduate
Character Strategies are the wounds people carry and the protective mechanisms they develop around them — all of which impact our relationships and shape our deepest longings, personalities, and sexual desires. As a coach, you want to:
Understand The Origin of Turn-Ons
Our desires are complex. They are shaped during our childhood, and arise as we cope with emotional challenges, transmuting them into pleasure. The more you understand turn-ons — where they come from and why — and how they relate to Character Strategies, the more acceptance and fulfillment you and your clients will attain.
Support Your Complex Clients
Some clients face complex challenges rooted in shame, trauma, and feelings of unworthiness. To be a successful sex and relationship coach, you need to be prepared with a roadmap of how to support clients who might be quite different from you. Without proper training, you may view them through your own perspective, making it more challenging for you to assist them in comprehending themselves and their decisions.
Empower Yourself, Empower Your Clients
In the Somatica Character Strategies Training, you learn to own the parts of yourself you’ve kept hidden — while supporting others’ personal discoveries — with a new level of understanding, empathy, tenderness, self-forgiveness, vulnerability, and awareness.
Not only will you walk away feeling more confident than ever before – but you’ll also be able to better empower your clients on their journeys.

I am feeling energized and satisfied with the investment I made.
I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for what you taught last week – and to reflect back on the immediate and jaw-dropping impact it’s had on my ability to coach my corporate clients on leadership, communications, and performance. I now understand the underlying forces happening in their experience and our relationship dynamic at a level beyond what I was able to before. It is helping them feel seen, held, and have access to breakthroughs.
