About us
Elena and Dana have a shared passion for the deep connection between mind, body and spirit which has led them on their individual journeys of self-discovery and exploration spanning many years.
They bring warmth, sensitivity and experience to the therapeutic space, drawing on a variety of healing approaches including somatic psychotherapy, nervous system regulation, early attachment, family constellations and a range of creative therapies. Their approach is trauma-informed and collaborative. For bookings or enquiries, please contact us here:

Elena Di Fabio
Elena is a somatic psychotherapist and remedial massage therapist. Elena's passion for human behaviour evolved through her own experience as a child growing up surrounded by family with mental health issues. In her adult years, this led her on a journey of self-discovery where she is now living more consciously and being present to the moment.
Our body contains the maps or stories that govern the way we move, breathe and feel in this world and in essence, this is part of our body's wisdom. Elena's desire to learn has followed the path of knowing more about the connection between mind, body and spirit.
Her studies have included a wide range of modalities that combine talk therapy and somatic bodywork and she brings an array of therapeutic techniques through remedial massage. Elena is a Professional Member of the Australian Massage Association (ABN 437 973 961 59) and is a current student of Bowen Therapy.
