Elena Jacinta

--- Available for ONLINE sessions ONLY --- I’m a somatic therapist for women and the founder of Back To Your Body, an online practice offering gentle body-based trauma healing worldwide. I'm trained in Somatic Experiencing ®, a body-oriented trauma healing method developed by Dr. Peter Levine. I believe in a slow and gentle approach and I lead with compassion and attunement, striving to create a safe space to attend to the wounds that are not meant to be healed on our own. One of my specialities is working with early childhood and pre-verbal trauma, including prenatal wounding, which often shows up as emotional or physiological symptoms that seem to have no context or medical cause. I also enjoy supporting women recovering after shock trauma and offering guidance in repairing relational ruptures and generational wounds. In my SE sessions, I weave in somatic touch work, as well as elements of NeuroAffective Touch, emotional embodiment of Integral Somatic Psychology (ISP), IFS-based somatic parts work, and applied Polyvagal Theory to address a range of issues. I believe that all of us have the innate resilience and capacity to overcome the grip of our past, and as we (re)discover it with the right support, we can find more ease, freedom and joy in being alive. If you are a woman looking for relational body-based healing, I’m currently accepting new clients for virtual somatic therapy sessions. I work across time zones with clients in Asia, Australia, the Americas (your evenings) and Europe (your mornings). Feel free to reach out or learn more at https://backtoyourbody.org/elena-jacinta/
