Who is Jaime Elkayam?

Jaime is Word of Mouth's Energy Healing Specialist and co-founder. Her sessions sit at the intersection of reiki, somatic facilitation, breathwork, and relationship coaching. She is trauma-aware and nervous-system-centered, which in practice means she paces a session to meet you exactly where you are, not where a protocol says you should be.

She works in the traditional Usui Reiki lineage. She reads the room and adjusts in real time, which is why clients return for years rather than once. Alongside her partner Yonatan, she has kept the same Melrose studio for over a decade, supporting therapists, healers, creatives, couples, and high-achievers who need a space that holds the whole self rather than one part at a time.

Jaime and Yonatan are married, and their own relationship is the daily testing ground for the work they do with clients. You get both practitioners in the room, not one.

How She Works

Trauma-aware, and paced to you

Trauma-aware is a phrase many practitioners use. Jaime specifies what it means in the room. No client is pushed past what is ready, and every session is shaped by what is actually present that day rather than a fixed sequence.

  • Trauma-aware by design

    She works with the nervous system, not against it, so new clients and seasoned practitioners are both met gently.

  • Nervous-system-centered

    The work is built to help you settle out of fight-or-flight, which is where rest, clarity, and real presence become possible.

  • Paced to where you are

    A short, real intake shapes each session. No clipboard, no protocol you have to fit yourself into.

  • Read in real time

    Grounded in the Usui Reiki lineage, she adjusts as the session unfolds, which is why clients come back for years.

In Their Words

What clients say about working with Jaime

★★★★★

My time with Jaime every week guides my actions across my life and imbues intention, reflection, understanding and meaning into everything I do. To take time to do less for a few hours a week multiplies the value of everything else that I do.

Eric Sagotsky
★★★★★

As a licensed clinical mental health therapist as well as a Reiki practitioner for over two decades, my experience with Word of Mouth was profoundly nurturing as well as professional and poignant. I walked away feeling wiser and calmer while also more present and uplifted.

Hyim Ross
★★★★★

After 3 months, I not only found an incredible romantic partner, but I feel more grounded and powerful in who I am, than ever before.
