About Andre Jacomet
Greetings, I’m Andre, an executive coach and trauma therapist with over 20 years of global experience. I specialize in guiding high-performing individuals through profound transformation, rooted in a deep understanding of the nervous system. I am a certified Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP, 2005) with a diploma in Polarity Therapy (RPP). My approach empowers clients to reclaim regulation and resilience, enabling them to embody and express their true potential.
A tailored approach to transformation
I specialize in holding space for my clients with precision and attunement, creating an environment where profound shifts can occur in their nervous system and emotional state. This allows them to break through perceived barriers and align more fully with their authentic selves.
Drawing from personal experience
Having navigated my own journey through challenging and transformative experiences, I have cultivated a comprehensive understanding of the spectrum of human states, emotions, and challenges. This enables me to support my clients through both the light and shadow of their journey — from moments of despair to joy, from fear to empowerment, and everything in between.
Your journey, Your growth
In our work together, we create a space where all aspects of your experience are welcome — the full range of challenges and breakthroughs. My approach is designed to help you step into a deeper level of self-awareness and mastery, aligning you with your highest potential and allowing you to lead and live with authenticity and confidence.
My clients often come to me dealing with issues such as
panic attacks
depression
burnout
complex relational dynamics
the impact of unresolved physical trauma
To name just a few. Many of my clients can attest that, as we progress in our work together, several of these challenges either shift significantly or dissipate entirely.
However, at the core of my work is:
I support you in becoming who you truly are.
This is the natural, powerful outcome of our collaboration – provided you are ready and willing to embrace it. This approach stands in stark contrast to conventional coaching or therapy models that are mainly about acquiring external results. Our coaching is not merely about what you want, but who you are.
A journey of truth
Throughout our sessions, I won’t simply tell you what you want to hear.
Instead, I will offer incisive, truth-driven insights designed to elevate your awareness, realign your priorities and expand your capacity for growth. At times, this may feel uncomfortable, but it is this discomfort that drives growth. If this resonates with you, then you’ve found the right place — and I’m honored to accompany you on this journey.

My Story
My path is one of rising from the ashes. The beauty in it is that the complexity of what I experienced led to the scope of the work I am able to do today.
Early Life and Struggles
After surviving adverse prenatal conditions, I grew up in an environment of disorientation, mostly alone and suffering from early neglection. I developed some manifestations of ADHD and started psychotherapy at 13, which helped me make it through school and get a degree. At the same time, I founded my own business importing computers and was self-employed at 18.
The Journey with Addiction
Drugs and addiction became an important topic in the following years. In parallel, I learnt many things through my connection with my uncle, who was part of the Swiss secret service and a dazzling figure. I saw behind curtains that very few people do and witnessed situations most of us only see in movies. At the time, this contributed to my destabilisation, but it also strengthened me into forming my very own opinion and keeping a backbone in challenging environments.
The Gift of Recovery and New Beginnings
I was gifted a new life when I recovered from my addiction in 2000 and when, two years later, I got into contact with the trauma healing work by Peter Levine. At the time I was a business consultant, training people and companies on awareness and security topics.
The Call to Trauma Therapy
I have always had a very clear compass within me and when I sat in the introduction training for Somatic Experiencing, I was clear that everything I went through had needed to happen exactly the way it did, for me to be there in that moment. This is how I embarked on this completely new path of trauma therapy, gradually building up my practice, assisting Peter Levine during his seminars in Switzerland, completing the Polarity Training, giving seminars on my own.
From therapy to coaching
From therapy to coachingOn my journey, I am also continually evolving. In recent years, I have shifted my work from therapy to coaching. I enjoy new challenges - and the coaching setting always offers surprising opportunities. On-site coaching of athletes at competitions, being part of the excitement of a major venture capital investment, a holistic view of a real estate portfolio or the sale of a dental practice in a luxury spa resort with a team of financial and legal experts are just a few examples. I bring all my experience as a business consultant and with trauma and therapy to this work, which gives me great joy.
The Spark of Truth
Within all the madness, unconsciousness and darkness I grew up in and witnessed also in later years, there was always this spark of truth slumbering in the depth of me. All of the above sharpened my deep inner knowing of what is actually true, what is valuable, what is honorable, what is of dignity. It is the inner pull towards the light, the goodness, the divine, that kept me on my course and motivated my ongoing quest, to this day and onwards.
An adventurer at heart
As you might expect, I thrive in the face of challenges. I am deeply driven to rise to them, and I find genuine fulfillment in the pursuit of real adventures. With a natural ability to think quickly and solve complex problems, I work with my clients on a multi-dimensional approach, seamlessly integrating unique life circumstances, high-stakes situations, and practical considerations. Together, we navigate the intricate layers of your personal and professional journey, finding powerful solutions that align with your highest aspirations.
It is the road less traveled…
…that calls to me most. I hold a deep reverence for the untamed expanses of nature, which I am always drawn to explore. Similarly, I am dedicated to living a life that is authentically mine — one that carves its own course, rather than following the conventional path. It is this commitment that guides me in helping my clients uncover their own unique path, one that resonates with their truest self, regardless of external trends or expectations.
"Through our work together, you have helped me realize that I am free to fully embrace all aspects of myself — whether faced with acceptance or rejection, love or anger. Your presence has allowed me to explore these depths with courage and clarity. This transformative process has not only deepened my personal journey but also profoundly enriched my professional work, allowing me to speak with even greater authenticity and impact in my writing and public engagements. I’m deeply grateful for the space you’ve held for me."
