Irina Verwer
Somatic Therapist and Intimacy Coach
Irina is a certified somatic therapist and intimacy coach. Born and raised in the Netherlands and now based in Berlin, she has spent more than two decades traveling the world, cultivating a wealth of knowledge and experience.
Her work focuses on self-healing, understanding how past abuse and trauma shape the present, addressing medical challenges, establishing healthy boundaries in both personal and professional life, reconnecting with core aspects of the self, and supporting people in building deeper, more intimate connections.
By tuning into the unique needs of each moment and drawing from a diverse range of experiences - including working in Bali, studying Ayurvedic herbal remedies in India, and grieving the death of most of her family members - she supports people in living a life that feels right to them.
