Elena uses yoga and other body-centered practices to support those who have experienced trauma and chronic stress. She is a yoga teacher (RYT-200) and a Trauma Center Trauma Sensitive Yoga Facilitator (TCTSY-F). She also studies Somatic Experiencing, which can help support the body’s process of gently releasing the effects of stress and traumatic shock.
Elena says, “Trauma can leave us feeling stuck on high-alert, overwhelmed, and disconnected from our bodies. Body-based trauma healing modalities, like Trauma Sensitive Yoga and Somatic Experiencing can help us learn how to tune into our bodies in a way that feels tolerable and safe. In our sessions together, we’ll explore ways of supporting your unique nervous system. You always get to choose what you want to try, and you always get to set the pace.”
