About me
Hi, I’m Ana Baptista.
I’m a medical doctor over 18 years, specialized in hematology and with experience in clinical research.
Alongside my medical career, I have expanded into complementary fields that address what science alone often can’t: how the body, mind and energy systems interact to shape the way we live and feel.
Today I work with individuals who lead demanding lives and want more than just external success. Who want clarity and true balance. Who want to feel good in their mind and body.
Through a tailored integration of Spinal Energetics, Breathwork, Coaching and NLP, combined with medical insight, I help refine the internal system so it can sustain both who you are and the life you want to create.
This is not about abandoning science.
It is about bringing science and embodied awareness together to create change that is both grounded and transformative.
If you have ever felt…
That your mind never really stops, even when you seem calm on the outside.
That stress or tension keeps showing up in your body, with no clear reason.
That certain habits or distractions keep pulling you away from yourself.
That after reaching your goals, you still find yourself wondering, what now?
Or maybe just a kind of restlessness - a sense that something feels off, even if nothing looks wrong.
You’re not alone.
This is where I can help you, so success feels real, integrated and whole.
I don’t promise quick fixes.
I’m not offering one more escape.
Instead, here’s what you can expect:
A clear and structured process that honours what you’ve already achieved, and supports you in stepping into the next phase of your life.
Tools and clarity delivered with confidence and care.
A trusted guide who understands how high demand can disconnect you, and how true connection with yourself can restore everything.
HOW I WORK
My work weaves together body, mind, and energy, helping you reconnect with your innate wisdom and inner clarity.
Each session is unique, guided by what your system is ready to explore or release in that moment.
I draw upon Spinal Energetics, Breathwork, Coaching, and NLP to create an integrative approach that supports real and lasting transformation.
This process is not about fixing or controlling symptoms, it’s about restoring coherence between what you think, feel, and embody.
Meaningful change takes time.
To allow your system to integrate new patterns and for transformation to become sustainable in daily life, I work in programmes of a minimum of eight sessions.
Sessions can take place weekly or every two weeks, depending on your rhythm and availability.
After the first cycle of eight sessions, some people feel complete; others choose to continue.
There’s no fixed rule, only the natural pace of your own process.
I work with a select number of clients to ensure depth and lasting transformation.
The modalities I use
Spinal Energetics
Spinal Energetics is a revolutionary modality that works with the energy flowing through the spine, helping you access and awaken the innate wisdom of your body. It supports regulation of the nervous system by working simultaneously on the physical body and the energetic field.
This approach reaches body memories that the mind cannot fully access, releasing stored tension and unresolved experiences. It helps free you from emotional loops and unconscious triggers, leading to less reactive states and allowing you to feel more present. Decisions become clearer, relationships can be navigated with greater ease, and the grip of addictive behaviours often begins to dissolve.
Clients often describe a profound sense of lightness, clarity and renewal. The body knows how to return to balance, and this work offers the time, guidance and space for that to unfold.
Breathwork
Breathwork uses conscious breathing techniques that regulate the nervous system, build resilience and open access to deeper states of consciousness. These sessions can vary from simple exercises to practise in daily life, supporting focus and emotional balance, to deeper journeys that expand awareness and bring profound release.
Through this process, stress can dissolve, emotions held in the body can surface and integrate, and a greater sense of clarity and ease becomes available. Clients often describe returning from these journeys lighter, calmer and more connected to themselves. Breathwork is both a powerful practice on its own and an essential complement to integrative work, helping you embody transformation in a tangible way.
Coaching
Focused conversations that bring awareness to the patterns, beliefs and choices shaping your life. Coaching offers clarity, direction and accountability, while also creating space for new perspectives to emerge.
In my work, coaching is not about giving advice or offering quick fixes. It is about guiding you to recognise what you truly value and supporting you in aligning that with your own unique path.
Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP)
NLP provides practical methods for identifying and shifting unconscious patterns that influence thoughts, behaviours and emotions. It offers direct tools to reframe limiting beliefs and create new strategies for success, well-being and authentic expression.
In my work, NLP tools are applied through coaching conversations and combined with somatic practices, accelerating meaningful change and embedding it in everyday life.
Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is not a stand-alone modality in my work, but a complementary tool I often use when it serves the client’s process. In certain moments, guided states of deep focus can help sustain change at the mental level, reinforcing the shifts that emerge through the body and emotions.
It is applied only when appropriate and always in an integrative way, supporting the mind in aligning with the transformations already taking place.
