About Me
Relationship & Intimacy Coaching
Come home to yourself
If you are ready to feel more confident, alive and audacious — in yourself and in your relationships — you are welcome here.
My mission is to help you clarify and transform the patterns keeping you stuck, through a blend of customised tools, from deep listening to practical breathwork. Drawing on my extensive training in VITA™ Sex, Love & Relationship coaching, and in tantra and shadow work, I help you uncover the blockages and limiting beliefs holding you back.
Weaving mind, body and spirit, we co-create the support you need to truly flourish.
"Tanya is an outstanding coach with a genuine passion for growth. She quickly identifies core issues and helps you see them from a fresh perspective. I deeply appreciated her holistic approach, blending physical and mental aspects into a truly well-rounded experience."
Chloe, 53, United Kingdom
I guide people of all genders - women, men, non-binary, and gender-expansive - as well as couples and partners of different sexual orientations and relationship structures, to expand their capacity for desire, intimacy, and feeling fully alive. We do this through honest conversation and body-based practices - working with the energy that fuels everything that makes you you.
Sessions are available on Zoom or in person near Geneva, in French and in English.
My background
I used to think growth meant fixing myself. When I failed, I'd spiral. Then, I found another way: instead of fighting the tricky parts, I got curious about them and tried to understand them, accept them, even love them. They stopped running the show (at least some of the time!).
I'd always been good at logical thinking and emotional intelligence, but I was largely cut off from my body and my intuition. Then I discovered tantra and other somatic approaches. Coming back into my body opened up a whole new world: not just sensation, but a different way of relating to others and to myself.
Originally from the UK, I've worked across continents and now live near Geneva, Switzerland with my husband Niall. Our three young adult children come and go.
I'm a certified VITA™ Love, Sex & Relationship Coach with over 600 hours of trauma-informed somatic study and practice. Over the years, I’ve studied tantra, kink, and archetypal psychology. I hold a BSc from Cambridge and a PhD in Social Anthropology from the London School of Economics. I am bilingual in French and English.
I've always been drawn to unlocking potential in people and in systems. For most of my career, I helped organisations in the social sector understand and increase their social impact. In 2010, I set up the Zoe Sarojini Education Trust in memory of my late sister Zoe, whom we lost to suicide. I serve on the executive committee of Giving Women in Geneva working with grassroots women’s organisations around the world.
Our enquiry
I work with people who want to thrive, not just get by.
Maybe you recognise yourself here:
You're in a long-term relationship and the spark has faded
You're tired of the voice that says you're not good enough
The energy and aliveness you used to feel just isn't there right now
You enjoy your sexuality, and you feel you could explore so much further
You have desires or fantasies that confuse you or bring up shame
Together, we explore:
What in you is trying to emerge?
What's getting in the way?
How do you want to feel in your body? In your sexuality? In your relationships?
Do you want to explore new ways of connecting?
I want to help you meet the different parts of yourself—the scared parts, the angry parts, the ones that feel unworthy or heavy—so they work with you, not against you. The parts you hide often hold real power when you let them in. We're aiming towards wholeness, not perfection.
"I feel like I touched an old belief, and even though it made me cry, it also released suppressed energy. I woke up feeling fresh and recharged. It's unbelievable how much tiredness comes from emotional suppression."
Rima, 43, Serbia
Our journey together
"What sets you apart is that you are wholly present, every session. You're always compassionate, even when you challenge me."
Diana, 58, Switzerland
Here's what it is like working with me:
First, we build safety and trust. You can be completely yourself. All of you is welcome.
Then, we get curious. We explore what's shaping your beliefs, your sense of who you are, what you're allowed to want. Together, we gently loosen the beliefs that block your aliveness.
We work with the body. Often our bodies hold feelings and memories that the mind can't quite reach. I'll introduce simple practices to help release stuck emotions and return you to states that feel good, like feeling worthy, or at ease, or deeply okay.
For couples, I teach straightforward communication tools and gentle exercises, especially helpful when the spark has dimmed or you feel like you want different things.
Between sessions, I create tailored home practices, short audio guides, and real-time support on WhatsApp to help you integrate what we do together.
“I am very comfortable going deep inside myself but you were able to bring up new things I was not able to see within myself . I learned new skills to deal with some of the parts of myself that I am not so comfortable with.”
Michael, 43, USA
What kind of coach am I?
"She created a safe, judgment-free space where I could explore myself with curiosity rather than pressure.”
Jane, 31, United Kingdom
I listen deeply. I make you feel seen.
I'm intuitive and responsive. I know when to keep things light and when to go deeper, and when to simply hold. Playfulness matters.
"Despite working with heavy material, there is also joy, lightness, and even playfulness in our sessions. Tanya has a rare ability to bring warmth and aliveness into deep healing work, making the process feel not only effective, but nourishing."
Sam, 46, Switzerland
I bring structure and clarity, helping you make sense of what comes up. While I guide, you lead. My job is to help you find your own truth.
We do this through honest conversation and body-based practices - working with the energy that fuels everything that makes you you.
"To our great benefit, we have both noticed how we communicate better and more clearly with each other, and have seen a real shift in our family dynamics."
Joy & Karl, 40s, Sweden
