Joanna Haines

Joanna Haines is a Somatic Therapist, Guide, and International Retreat Facilitator specializing in nervous system healing and psychosomatic exploration. Her work bridges nervous system regulation with embodied awareness, supporting people to move out of patterns such as hyperdrive, shutdown, and relational vigilance, and into a more grounded, responsive way of living. With over 20 years of experience in movement, yoga, and trauma-informed practice, Joanna brings a deeply embodied and practical approach to transformation. She believes that regulation is not the end point, but the foundation — creating the conditions for deeper connection, presence, and meaningful change. Her work is rooted in the understanding that the body is not something to override or fix, but something to listen to and work with. Through this lens, she guides people back into relationship with themselves, where insight, intuition, and clarity can emerge from direct experience. Joanna offers programs, retreats, and guided experiences that support both regulation and deeper embodiment, with an emphasis on integration over intensity.
