About Sonia Sarina Birrer

A guide for soul remembrance, embodiment and conscious living.

My work brings together our everyday reality and the spiritual world, which for me goes beyond faith into frequency and energy. I am a regression therapist and channel, and I have worked with people on their health, well-being and personal growth since 2016. I see clients in person in the Bex area, Vaud, Switzerland, and online worldwide.

Where I started

My mother tongue is Swiss German, and I grew up in Nidwalden, in the very middle of Switzerland. In my late twenties I moved to Ireland and opened an organic tea shop. I loved serving my customers, but I noticed they were coming back less for the tea and more for the conversations. That surprised me, because it didn't fit my image of myself as an "entrepreneur". Around my Saturn return, at about 29, I realised that my role was not just to listen. I was here to be of more intimate help to this world.

The turning points

I moved to Portugal, then back to Switzerland, and trained in integrative health and nutrition coaching so I could support people more professionally. Once I was working with clients, I could see that physical and lifestyle approaches weren't enough. People were bringing emotional, relational and spiritual layers that needed deeper work, and I didn't feel I had the tools for that.

In the same period I began to have vivid dreams and out-of-body experiences that felt completely real when I woke up. I knew they meant something important, but I had no idea how to understand them.

Becoming a therapist and a channel

While I was looking for where these experiences came from, I found regression therapy. I saw it as a possible bridge between memory, consciousness and lived awareness in the now. There were very few practitioners where I lived then, and that led me to the Past Life Regression Academy, founded by Andy Tomlinson in the UK. His work spoke to me deeply. It gave me professional training and structure, and it also gave me guidance from lived experience for what was happening inside me. I began my training under his mentorship.

Interestingly, my nightly experiences calmed down once I started training as a regression therapist, even before I'd had any therapy myself. I suddenly realised I could communicate directly with my own soul. I did, and my nightmares stopped.

My training and memberships are listed on Training and credentials.

"Everything we ever need to know is already within us."

My work now

My work today is rooted in awakening and remembrance: a lived process of bringing soul awareness fully into human life. I work as a bridge between worlds, so that insight, memory and guidance can move from the unseen spiritual and energetic realms into everyday reality.

Healing the past isn't the goal in itself. My work centres on embodiment. That means recognising what is already true, healing and integrating what you remember, and letting your inner guidance and your true soul purpose shine in your daily life, your relationships and your decisions.

Awakening isn't something only for spiritual masters, and it is not something for the future – it can be integrated in the here and now. It shapes how we live, relate and take part in a world that is ready for a new level of consciousness.

I also wrote a book, The Three Pillars of Transformation, on Awareness, Holding space and Raising your frequency.
