FAQ’s

To begin, we schedule an initial session — available online or in person in Lisbon or Ericeira.

I also offer in-person sessions in Berlin about twice a year during my visits there.

In this 55-minute meeting (€120), we explore your current challenges and goals, and see if we’re a good match to work together.
Afterwards, we decide which process - Somatic Therapy, Mentoring / Coaching, or Shamanic Healing - is most aligned with your needs.

Send me an email to mail@jasminschott.de to book your first session!

Before we begin, it’s important to know a few practical things about how I work.

I offer a mix of online and in-person sessions, depending on your location and the type of work we do together.

Most sessions take place online, which allows flexibility and continuity - even when life gets busy or you travel.

For in-person sessions, I am usually available
– in Ribamar / Ericeira on Tuesdays,
– in Lisbon on Thursdays,
and about twice a year in Berlin.

If you would like to work with me, please be aware that flexibility and openness to online sessions are important, as in-person slots are limited and days and time can vary.

My general availability for all sessions is between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. (Portugal time).

For Somatic Experiencing® trauma therapy sessions, I recommend to have at least some in-person meetings when possible, as they often bring an extra depth and quality to the work.
For other somatic therapy, coaching, mentoring, and shamanic healing, online sessions are equally effective and can be just as powerful.

This structure allows me to offer consistent, high-quality support - wherever you are in the world.

I currently offer single sessions only for the first meeting.
True transformation takes depth, continuity, and a sense of safety — that’s why I work in dedicated containers:

• Somatic Therapy: 10 sessions

• Mentoring/Coaching: 5 or 10 sessions

• Shamanic Healing: 5 sessions (2 coaching, 3 energy healing sessions)

Each process builds naturally over time, creating the space your system needs for lasting change.

You don’t need to know in advance.
During our first session, we explore your current situation, what you’re longing for, and what kind of support feels most aligned.

Somatic Therapy is often the right choice when there is inner suffering or psychological pain — emotional distress, stress, anxiety, or trauma symptoms that call for deeper healing and nervous system regulation.
Mentoring or Coaching is ideal when there’s no suffering in the clinical sense, but a wish to improve certain aspects of life — relationships, purpose, self-leadership, or overall well-being.
Shamanic Healing is often recommended when traditional therapy reaches its limits and you want to access energetic or karmic layers of your experience.

Together, we sense what resonates most and where your next step of transformation begins.

All sessions are 55 minutes long unless otherwise specified.

We begin with an Initial Exploratory Session — online or in person in Lisbon or Ericeira (Ribamar).
This first meeting lasts 55 minutes and costs 120 €.
It allows us to explore your needs, connect, and see whether working together feels like the right fit.

✨ Cancellation Policy

Please note that I have a 48-hour cancellation policy.
Sessions cancelled less than 48 hours in advance will be charged at the full rate.

No. My practice is private and sessions are self-paid.
I don’t collaborate with insurance companies — this gives us the freedom to work holistically and individually, integrating psychology, body, and energy without external limitations.

Somatic Therapy is an integrative, body-based approach that supports deep healing of stress, anxiety, and trauma patterns held in the nervous system.
In a 10-session process, we work gently with body awareness, emotion, and energy — combining Psychology, Somatic Experiencing, Gestalt Therapy and mindfulness-based presence.
The goal is to restore natural regulation, inner safety, emotional capacity and connection so that life can flow again with more ease, clarity, and authenticity.
Clients often describe feeling calmer, more embodied, more self-aware and confident and more at peace — both in their bodies and relationships.

Somatic Experiencing® (SE) is a body-oriented approach to healing trauma and chronic stress, developed by Dr. Peter Levine.
Rather than retelling or analyzing traumatic events, SE gently supports your nervous system to complete unfinished survival responses and return to a natural state of balance.

What was once experienced as too much, too strong, or too alone can now be met in a safe, contained space.
Sessions usually involve less talking and more sensing — exploring emotions, body sensations, behavioral patterns, and inner stories. Together, we listen to what your system needs to finally complete the stress cycle that it couldn’t conclude back then.

In this work, symptoms are not seen as problems to be eliminated, but as the body’s creative attempt to protect you. Through awareness and gentle guidance, these patterns can reorganize from survival-based reactions into healthy, life-affirming responses.

Gestalt therapy is one form of psychotherapy belonging to the field of humanistic and holistic therapy methods. 

The focus of the therapeutic sessions is on your experiences and perception in the here and now - on your worries and burdens as well as on what strengthens and supports you. We talk about your past experiences and your fantasies about the future when they are significant for your situation today.

By Gestalt therapy, you can improve your awareness of your own wishes and needs and learn how to express them in contact with others. The aim is not to become a different person, rather to find your own way and live your life accordingly.

Gestalt therapy has nothing to do with art therapy and you don`t have to do anything “creative” – unless you wish to ;)

My Mentoring and Coaching work blends somatic awareness, systemic clarity, and psychological depth.
It’s designed for professionals and leaders who want to move from insight into embodied transformation — to lead and live from authenticity rather than overadaptation.

Having worked as a corporate consultant in Munich years ago, I know the pressure to perform, the perfectionism, and the exhaustion that can follow.
Many clients come to me when they’ve lost inspiration, feel disconnected from themselves, or start questioning their direction — asking, “Does this still make sense?”

Common coaching themes include finding balance between work and relationships, navigating conflicts with more awareness, creating healthy habits, and leading with presence instead of stress.
In our 5- or 10-session process, we translate these insights into embodied change — reconnecting you with your clarity, values, and the confidence to lead your life from within.

The Shamanic Healing Container is a 5-session process that combines shamanic energy healing and integrative coaching to support deep, lasting transformation.
This holistic approach helps release energetic blockages, balance your system, and reconnect you with your inner power and life force — restoring clarity, peace, and direction.

You can experience this healing process in person in Lisbon or Ericeira (Ribamar) or online from anywhere in the world — both are equally effective.

The container includes three Shamanic Healing sessions and two Integrative Coaching sessions, designed to bridge the spiritual and practical aspects of growth.

Each Shamanic Healing session follows three natural phases:

1) Preliminary Talk (10-15 min)
We start by identifying one to three life areas that currently feel blocked or challenging.
This helps me tune into what to focus on during the energy work.

2) Shamanic Treatment (30 min)
For about 30 minutes, you lie down, relax, and receive.
During this time, I read the chakras and aura, clear stagnant energy, and guide the system to release energetic patterns connected to trauma, ancestral themes, or karmic influences.

3) Follow-up Talk (15 min)
Afterwards, we reflect on what was experienced — your sensations and what I saw, sensed, and shifted during the shamanic journey.

Between the healing sessions, the Coaching and Integration sessions help anchor the energetic work into everyday life — translating insights into emotional, somatic, and practical change.

This combination of spiritual energy healing, trauma-informed awareness, and integrative coaching allows the transformation to become embodied and sustainable — touching layers that traditional therapy often cannot reach.

Shamanism is the ancient art of consciously working with energy, nature, and spirit for healing and balance - for the good of all living beings.
It’s the art of perceiving life beyond the limits of our ordinary senses and restoring harmony with the natural world.
In essence, shamanic healing is energy work that reconnects you to your essence, clears blocks, and brings alignment to body, mind, and soul.

Practically, a trained shamanic practitioner can help you direct your energy back into its natural flow and bring harmony to areas of life where there is imbalance - such as emotional pain, relationship conflict, lack of vitality, or recurring patterns of stress and crisis.

Our energy field, expressed through the chakras and aura, is the first place where imbalance or trauma manifests.

You can feel a person’s energy - we all can. When someone is in harmony, grounded and alive, open-hearted, authentic, creative, and connected to their intuition or higher guidance, we sense that coherence immediately.

When energy becomes blocked, imbalance can appear on several levels:

1️⃣ Energetic Level – disturbances in the flow of life force, reflected in the chakras and aura.
2️⃣ Emotional / Soul Level – emotions like sadness, fear, insecurity, or anger show where the system is seeking healing.
3️⃣ Mental Level – self-critical thoughts, overthinking, or constant worry indicate mental imbalance that affects energy and emotions.
4️⃣ Physical Level – when earlier signs are ignored, the body expresses the imbalance through pain, exhaustion, or illness.

Healing begins when we create space for authentic being - for presence, stillness, and truth.
As a shamanic healer, I hold this sacred space for you during our sessions, inviting your system to return to balance and harmony through energy alignment and spiritual awareness.

You can experience Shamanic Healing in Lisbon or Ericeira (Portugal) or online from anywhere in the world - both options are equally powerful and effective.

Disclaimer: A Shamanic Healing session does not replace medical, psychotherapeutic, or other professional treatment.
Shamanic work is a spiritual healing process and process of consciousness.
Prescribed medication should never be changed without consulting your doctor.

No. I do not work with any plant medicine or psychoactive substances in my Shamanic Healing Containers.
All sessions are based on energy work, intuitive guidance, and consciousness practices that safely access deep healing states without the use of external substances.

This approach allows your system to integrate transformation naturally and gently and is therefore also suitable for people with an imbalanced nervous system or a trauma background.
The work happens in full awareness, guided by presence, safety, and your own inner wisdom.

With almost 20 years of experience in psychological therapy, somatic trauma healing, coaching, and spiritual development, my work bridges science, somatics, and soul.
Clients often describe our sessions as deep, safe, and truly transformative — a space where real, lasting change can happen.

As a clinical psychologist, somatic experiencing trauma therapist, systemic and business coach, mindfulness and resilience trainer, and shamanic energy healer, I bring together a wide range of modalities including somatic therapy, gestalt therapy, constellation work, inner child and parts work, mindfulness, systemic coaching, and energy healing.
This multidimensional foundation allows me to meet each person individually and guide complex emotional, psychological, and spiritual processes - from stress, anxiety, and trauma healing to leadership growth, life transitions, and authentic self-expression.

And I know this path from the inside.
There was a time when I, too, had lost my direction and had to make bold decisions - both in my work and personal life - that I once believed I could never make.
Those changes went against everything I thought my life should look like.
But my soul kept calling me to grow, to let go of old structures, outdated norms, and to live more truthfully each year.

Now I’m here to support you in doing the same - to walk beside you as you remember who you are and create a life that feels aligned, authentic, and alive.

Whether we work in person in Lisbon or Ericeira (Ribamar) or online worldwide, every session is a grounded space for truth, growth, and reconnection, an invitation to come home to yourself.

Not at all. You can believe in anything — or in nothing at all :)

My work meets you exactly where you are. I don’t impose any spiritual or religious beliefs on anyone.
Some clients resonate deeply with energy work, shamanic healing, and spirituality, while others prefer to focus on somatic therapy, psychology, and coaching.

If energy work doesn’t feel right for you, we absolutely don’t have to include it.
My approach is integrative and flexible — combining evidence-based methods from psychology, somatic experiencing, and systemic coaching with, when desired, spiritual and energetic perspectives.
You choose what feels most aligned and effective for your process.

I have a 48-hour cancellation policy for all sessions.
If you cancel less than 48 hours before our scheduled appointment, the full session fee will be charged — regardless of the reason.

However, if we can reschedule within the same week, the fee does not apply.

Of course, I am very happy to answer your questions! Just send me an Email to mail@jasminschott.de.
