About Tatiana St. Germain | LMHC & Certified Hypnotherapist | Coral Springs, FL

 
 
 

Hi, I’m Tatiana and I help women stop surviving and start living.

If you are reading this, something in you is ready to take the next step. Maybe you have been ready for a while. Maybe you have been carrying things for so long that you have stopped noticing the weight.

You might look like you have it all together from the outside and maybe you do, in the ways that are visible. But underneath, there is exhaustion, a reactivity you can't always explain and a quiet ache for something to feel different.

I want you to know: that ache is the part of you that knows healing is possible and that you deserve it. I have been able to witness how people start becoming their body’s’ experts. They become aware of how their bodies responds to stress or underneath emotions and learn to regulate their nervous system with presence, patience and compassion. Through the work together we also learn how to track you inner states learning to distinguish between stress and responses in your body. Since we often minimize our experiences, we have tendency to miss the signs that our body experiences. Therefore, awareness of how much and for how long you have been overextending yourself is important as well as creating safety within you.

I specialize in working with high-functioning adult women who are often the strong ones, the capable ones, the ones who keep it moving, but who are quietly struggling beneath the surface.

My work is rooted in the understanding that what you are experiencing is not a personality flaw or a lack of willpower. It is a nervous system that learned to survive. And nervous systems can learn something new.

 

 How I Help

  • Understand the emotional patterns driving your reactions and relationships

  • Heal the root of anxiety, overwhelm, and chronic stress, not just manage the symptoms

  • Reconnect with your body as a source of safety, not a source of threat

  • Release the subconscious beliefs formed in childhood that are still running your adult life

  • Come home to yourself, healing your inner child with compassion, not judgment

I use trauma-informed therapy, somatic approaches, Heart-Centered Hypnotherapy, and inner child work, tailored to you, because there is no one-size-fits-all path to healing.

I have fallen in love
with how the heart heals.

 

My Journey To Becoming A Therapist

My curiosity about the human mind started early. Growing up in a traditional Hispanic family, I watched the adults around me carry pain they didn't have words for. I saw what happened when hurt went unacknowledged — how it got passed down, how it shaped relationships, how it quietly dictated lives.

I went to University of Florida, where I studied psychology, and then to Nova Southeastern University, where I earned my Master's in Mental Health Counseling. My early career was in substance abuse treatment and those years taught me something I have never forgotten: that healing is profoundly possible, and that the people most willing to do the work are often the ones who have been carrying the most.

I was also fascinated by family dynamics. Coming from a traditional Hispanic family, it was an eye opener to be able to see the dysfunction in my own family and uncover my need to break the cycles that were not serving me. 

It was through serving others that I found myself called to do deeper work myself. Early on, I learned an important lesson: that in order to serve those I want to help, I also had to heal myself. I started working through my own unresolved issues from childhood. I did my own healing. 

Even though it is important to understand on the mind-level, it is also necessary to heal on the heart-level too. This is what I discovered through my personal healing and transformational work. And now I also help my clients discover how to heal through and respond from the heart just as I did.

My Heart Believes These To Be True

  • I believe everyone has the ability to change

  • I believe everyone has what they need within themselves to heal and create a life they want to live.

  • I believe lasting change happens when we understand what the nervous system has been trying to protect.

 

Being A Therapist Is Fulfilling

I love to be able to guide people to shorten the gap between the knowing and the doing. I understand what it is like to have a desire to change but not knowing how. 

Helping people gives my life meaning and purpose. I love being part of people’s healing journey. It is very rewarding to witness how they are able to empower themselves and break the behaviors or thought patterns that hold them back and prevent them from doing what they want to do.
