Sometimes life touches us deeply — painful memories, overwhelming emotions, panic, or a deep feeling of loneliness. You might find yourself stuck in repeating patterns or experiencing disconnection from your own body through physical symptoms and tension. Perhaps you're navigating a difficult life transition or questioning your place in the world. But even if healing feels far away, it is possible.

 

In her work with clients, Elena offers a safe, caring space where every part of a person is welcome and honored — fear, sadness, anger, hope. She gently explores each individual’s experiences, helping them reconnect with their inner strengths and build a deeper trust in themselves and their lives. Elena believes that each person is more than their pain — and often stronger than they may realize.

​

Her approach is client-centered and flexible. Elena draws from body-oriented techniques, trauma-informed practices, co-experiencing therapy, psychodrama, Ericksonian hypnosis, and coaching tools — always selecting what best supports each client’s inner clarity and a more meaningful connection with themselves.

 

With over 25 years of experience, she has helped adults and adolescents heal from trauma, body-held stress, and deeply rooted self-doubt.

​

Through therapy with Elena, clients often feel more steady, free, and in touch with the essential truths of who they are — not just experiencing symptom relief, but rediscovering purpose and the joy of being fully alive.
