The details
Coaching centers somatic and nervous system education, skill building, and practice. Through attuned guidance clients practice noticing their present moment experience so they can become more deeply aware of both unhelpful patterns and the wisdom of their bodies. This deeper connection with themselves makes space for clients to engage in meaningful self-responsiveness and offers greater access to clarity and choice about how they show up for their life and their community. Gentle, slow tracking can also help bring to awareness and resolve patterns of stuckness in the body, mind, and heart.
Somatic Coaching
Bianca Torres-Gragg
Therapist, Semillas Counseling & Consulting
Sitting with and being guided by Diana in a somatic session is potent. Their tracking, witnessing, and reflections were offered with a softness that allowed me to deepen into my experience more and more, minute by minute. I walked away feeling and knowing that what transpired in that time was different than anything I’ve experienced before.
"As a therapist, parent and community organizer, I cannot recommend sessions with Diana enough."
Group Participant
D invites you to learn and practice skills for self-regulation, attuning to your body, and expressing your needs in a way that centers consent and safety. I can't speak highly enough of them as a facilitator and this group.
"This group was transformative."
Paulina Mendez, LCSWA, LCASA
Therapist, Alegria Counseling
Working with Diana for somatic coaching has been deeply healing. Tracking sensations in my body with a non-judgmental guide has been powerful and surprisingly informative; there’s so much happening beneath the surface that I hadn’t been aware of.
"Their grounded presence created a rare space to pause and truly notice."
Group participant
Being in an all-trans affinity space also made a HUGE difference in knowing that there was going to be a baseline understanding and connection with the other folks there.
"The focus on consent and the consistent reminders to listen to our bodies… made it feel like a safer place to explore and engage, and also to just observe."
workshop participant
Las actividades que Diana nos ofreció estuvieron muy bien pensadas, divertidas y significativas. Además, las pláticas fueron súper inspiradoras, al igual que las técnicas que fueron compartidas.
"They helped me notice things we usually overlook and reminded me how important it is to be present."
workshop participant
Al igual que Diana, también soy una persona neurodivergente. Conocer y compartir con profesionales, otros líderes y comunidad que se encuentran en esa misma ‘categoría’ ayuda mucho. Los ejercicios me encantaron.
"I loved the playfulness."
Cata Noreña
Coaching Client
As someone who struggles to find therapy that works I find in Diana a space that feels safe, welcoming, supported, and warm. A place I always want to come back to when I’m doubting myself. I have a hard time opening up to therapists but Diana always gets me to feel comfortable, to go deep and to really self reflect.
"I love that I can find my own answers through their active, free of judgment, and very supportive listening."

The details
Somatic intensives offer an expansive, focused container for individualized education, tailored practice, and attuned support. Intensives offer a space to slow down and attend closely to the fullness of our experience, opening to new possibilities.
Over 4 hours, clients are given ample time to track, witness and process; move through cycles of activation and settling; and work with specific concerns at a sustainable pace. Intensives honor the body’s timing in a spacious way—supporting deeper integration, embodied choice, and meaningful, lasting change.
Intensives
Quynza Somatics will be hosting a retreat in beautiful Colombia! This restorative retreat is an invitation to come home to the body as a source of wisdom, belonging, and possibility—building our capacity for presence even in new and unfamiliar places. Through education, guided somatic practice, and self-attunement, we will build a foundation for embodied choice and intentional living.
