Susanna Tanni: Leading TraumaNeuro Coach

If you’ve ever felt stuck in past pain, trapped by experiences that won’t let go, or disconnected from your own body, Susanna Tanni knows exactly how that feels. But more importantly, she knows how to help people break free.

Susanna isn’t just another trauma coach, she's a force of nature, someone who turned her own struggles into a revolutionary healing movement. With over two decades of experience, she has helped thousands of people worldwide take back control of their lives, guiding them through trauma recovery in a way that’s both deeply scientific and profoundly personal.

This is not a story about overcoming adversity. This is a story about rewriting the rules of healing, about proving that the past doesn’t get to define you unless you let it.

Growing Up in Chaos: The Beginning of Her Journey

For Susanna, trauma wasn’t just a topic she studied, it was her reality from childhood. Growing up in Finland in a household shaped by addiction, she experienced firsthand what it feels like to be emotionally unsafe. Her father struggled with alcoholism, and the instability in her home left deep emotional wounds that she would carry for years.

But instead of letting those experiences break her, she became obsessed with understanding trauma not just mentally, but physically. Why did pain from the past stay trapped in the body? Why did so many people struggle to heal, no matter how much therapy they tried?

The search for answers led her down a path of neuroscience, somatic therapy, and trauma-informed coaching. Along the way, she was diagnosed with PTSD and ADHD, further fueling her determination to find a way to heal not just for herself, but for anyone who had ever felt like they were stuck in survival mode.

And that’s when she made a breakthrough.

The Birth of a Revolutionary Healing Method

Through years of research, practice, and personal experience, Susanna created the TraumaNeuro Transformation Method, a groundbreaking approach that goes beyond traditional therapy.

Unlike most trauma treatments that focus on talking through the past, Susanna’s method works with the body and nervous system to release deeply stored trauma. She realized that healing wasn’t just about changing thoughts, it was about retraining the nervous system to feel safe again.

And the results? Life-changing.

Over 22,000 people worldwide have experienced the power of her method, finding relief from anxiety, emotional blocks, self-doubt, and even physical pain linked to trauma.

But Susanna didn’t stop there. She wanted to empower others to help too.

Through her TraumaNeuro Coaching Certification Program, she has trained over 350 coaches globally, expanding access to her techniques far beyond what she could do alone.

Helping Women Reconnect With Their Bodies

One of Susanna’s biggest passions is pelvic floor healing, a topic that isn’t talked about nearly enough.

For many women, trauma isn’t just something that affects their minds, it gets physically stored in their bodies, particularly in the pelvic area. This can lead to chronic pain, tension, and even a disconnection from pleasure and safety.

Susanna’s approach helps women reclaim their bodies in a way that’s not just healing but empowering. Through somatic techniques, nervous system regulation, and mind-body integration, she has helped countless women feel safe, strong, and in control of their own physical and emotional experiences again.

This isn’t just about getting rid of trauma, it's about reclaiming joy, pleasure, and confidence in a way many thought was impossible.

The Challenges She Faced Along the Way

Of course, pioneering a new approach to trauma healing wasn’t easy.

The mental health industry is deeply rooted in traditional psychology, and not everyone was quick to accept Susanna’s body-based, neuroscience-backed methods. Some called it unproven. Some dismissed it as unconventional.

But the thousands of lives transformed proved otherwise.

Within just two years, she scaled her coaching business to six figures, not because she focused on making money, but because the demand for her effective, life-changing methods was undeniable.

Still, it wasn’t just professional resistance that made her journey tough.

She’s faced financial struggles, self-doubt, and personal roadblocks just like anyone else. But she never let those moments define her. Every challenge became fuel to push forward, to prove that healing isn’t just possible it’s powerful.

What’s Next? Taking Healing to the Next Level

Susanna isn’t slowing down. Not even close.

She’s on a mission to train even more TraumaNeuro coaches so that her work can reach even more people. She’s working on mentorship programs, expanding her online resources, and pushing for trauma-informed education on a global scale.

Her long-term vision? A world where healing is the norm, not the exception.

A world where people don’t just learn to cope with trauma they transform through it and come out stronger on the other side.

Susanna Tanni’s Message to You

If there’s one thing Susanna wants everyone to understand, it’s this:

Trauma doesn’t have to own you. Your past is not your prison. Your body knows how to heal you just need the right tools to help it.

Her work isn’t just about therapy. It’s about freedom. It’s about helping people break the cycle of pain and step into the strongest, most empowered versions of themselves.

In a world that often tells people to just “move on” from trauma, Susanna Tanni is proving that true healing isn’t about forgetting, it's about reclaiming your power and living fully again.

And if her journey has shown us anything, it’s that transformation isn’t just possible, it's inevitable for those who choose it.
