Dr. Alessia Baretta

I am Alessia Baretta, with a PhD in Bioengineering, a degree in Psychology, a Yoga Teacher, and a Sexual Educator, holding a deep interest in the connection between body, awareness, and well-being. Through trauma-informed yoga, I help people rediscover authentic self-listening, creating safe and inclusive spaces where movement becomes a tool for exploration and healing. In 2018, I founded the Somatic Competence® Yoga Training School within the Institute of Integrated Psychosomatics, a yoga teacher training school that combines yoga practice with neuroscience and trauma psychology, offering tools for more conscious teaching based on somatic listening. Additionally, in 2022, I earned my diploma as a Sexual Educator from AISPA (Italian Association of Sexology and Applied Psychology), expanding my expertise in sexuality education with a scientific and inclusive approach. I am currently deepening my path as a sexual consultant in training, to offer increasingly comprehensive tools in sexuality education and the relationship between body and emotions. I offer yoga sessions dedicated to women with pelvic area issues, such as chronic pain, pelvic floor dysfunction, muscle tension, or difficulties related to body perception. I work with an integrated approach, considering the body as a global system where every part is interconnected: pelvic well-being is not just about the specific area, but is deeply influenced by posture, breathing, emotional state, and the nervous system. Through gentle movements, relaxation techniques, and conscious mind-body connection work, I help women rediscover a more harmonious relationship with their bodies, improving comfort, mobility, and a sense of inner security.

The first therapeutic yoga session is a moment of deep listening and welcoming. It's a protected space where you can pause, breathe, share your story, and bring your experiences just as they are. In this first appointment, you can bring whatever feels important: bodily experiences, recurring emotions, significant events, any genito-pelvic issues, and other therapeutic paths you are currently following. You can express your desires and needs, and together we will define the initial directions, fully respecting your pace, your body language, and your boundaries. This session is the foundation of a tailored journey, built step by step, with connection and care. It's a time to begin inhabiting yourself.

I believe in a gentle approach that respects suffering, is scientifically informed, and accessible, allowing everyone to feel at home in their body and their experience.
