LEARN MORE ABOUT TRAUMA INFORMED PRACTICES

Meet Sandra Salffner

I am a trauma-informed coach specializing in nervous system regulation, somatic healing, and strengths-based transformation. My work is grounded in the belief that every person carries an innate capacity for healing, resilience, and joy—even after experiences that have shaken their sense of safety or self-trust. Through compassionate presence and evidence-based methods, I help clients reconnect with their inner wisdom, cultivate emotional stability, and create sustainable change from the inside out.

I hold a Trauma-Informed Coaching Certification as well as a Trauma-Informed Positive Psychology Coaching Certification, integrating both somatic and strengths-focused approaches into my practice. My training includes Polyvagal Theory, nervous system mapping, grounding and breathwork, vagal toning, Internal Family Systems (IFS) principles, and attachment-aware coaching. These modalities allow me to support clients gently and effectively as they move from survival patterns toward regulation, connection, and empowerment.

In my coaching sessions, I offer a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can slow down, tune into their body’s cues, and develop a deeper relationship with their emotional landscape. Rather than pushing for quick fixes or surface-level mindset shifts, I guide clients in cultivating nervous system resilience, strengthening their sense of agency, and reconnecting with what feels authentic and nourishing.

My passion for this work comes from my own healing journey and a deep belief in the human capacity to grow through compassion, curiosity, and awareness. I am honored to walk alongside those who are ready to release old patterns, build healthier boundaries, rediscover their strengths, and move toward a life that feels grounded, meaningful, and aligned.
