Simon Karim Frembgen

Hello, dear person – I'm glad you're here. I accompany sensitive, reflective people with attachment and developmental trauma, people-pleasing patterns, self-doubt, or stress – and the desire to finally truly arrive with themselves, with themselves, with others, with life. Many people carry a constant tension in their bodies – or the opposite: a strange numbness, a freeze, something that's hard to grasp.

… how we meet ourselves – and why that's sometimes so difficult. Together we look at where you've overridden yourself, where needs have been put aside for so long that they're barely perceptible anymore. The patterns that stand in the way today – people pleasing, tension, inner critic – were once clever survival strategies. Honoring these instead of fighting them opens the path to genuine self-compassion. I work according to the NARM model, body-oriented and nervous-system-friendly – with body, feeling, and relationship as healing space.

Body psychotherapy methods, verified by OneSomatic. Each link explains the method in plain language.

I accompany people through their transformation processes with clarity and sensitivity – as an authentic counterpart who doesn't pretend. I am a Heilpraktiker für Psychotherapie (German state-licensed psychotherapy practitioner) and certified NARM therapist, recognized by Dr. Laurence Heller and the NARM International Institute. My work combines the NARM model, Somatic Experiencing, client-centered psychotherapy, and inner child work – trauma-sensitive, nervous-system-friendly, holistic. 🤍🗝️🌱

My path to this work didn't begin with a degree, but with a crisis. In my thirties I experienced a burnout – accompanied by a herniated disc that forced me to pause. What I discovered in the process was uncomfortable and at the same time healing: how deeply self-doubt, adapting to others, and constant functioning were rooted in me. In this pause my own healing journey began – through therapy, bodywork, and the slow return to myself. I recognized how I burned myself out. My work emerged from this personal experience. Not as a concept, but as a lived path.
