Ana Liz Ceregatti is a registered Somatic Movement Therapist and Educator, Expressive Arts Therapy practitioner, Mindfulness teacher, and artist from Brazil, based in Los Angeles for the past nine years. With 15 years of experience at the intersection of art and healing—including education, community interventions, and private practice—she supports people in releasing outdated scripts that perpetuate pain and cultivating resources within and beyond their bodies.

​

Grounded in themes of identity and interconnection, Ana’s trauma-sensitive work addresses both individuals and the spaces they inhabit. She celebrates diversity through a lens of cultural humility, feminism, and anti-discrimination, and is particularly passionate about sharing her work with women from diverse cultural backgrounds and with marginalized communities.

 

Ana is a certified Tamalpa Life/Art Process® practitioner, with training in Mindfulness (through secular and Buddhist lenses), visual arts, experimental theater, somatic parts work, and creative writing. She deepens her approach through continuing studies primarily in psychoanalysis, trauma healing, and somatic Yoga. Personally, Ana enjoys exploring the human body and all it holds through various perspectives and fields, and spends most of her free time reading, writing, engaging in creative self-expression, and nesting with her pups and partner.

 

Ana’s style is collaborative, reflective, and rooted in fostering growth that aligns with personal values and goals. She has worked with at-risk teens, elderly populations affected by dementia, and women of color navigating breast cancer. She is now expanding her work in the cancer support space to include women and men affected by other forms of the illness. Her own breast cancer diagnosis in 2023 deepened her understanding of healing, strength, self-care, and the essential role of the expressive body during times of great uncertainty and transition. This experience has brought greater empathy and gentleness to her work and sparked new reflections on what it means to live with health and well-being in today’s world.

 

Ana leans on intention, creativity, curiosity, and intuition to create healing spaces and foster meaningful connections through transformative offerings.
