About Us
Healing through the mind-body-soul
Our goal is to help you reconnect to your natural capacity for connection, joy, freedom and peace.
We are dedicated to providing therapy that honours the wholeness of being: the visceral, psychological/neurological, and spiritual/intuitive.
Our approach uses effective brain- and body-based (psycho-somatic) modalities in psychotherapy, somatic work, and trauma processing to experience change in a deep, felt sense.
Story Behind the Therapist
Hi, I'm Tifanis.
My therapeutic journey began as I was coming of age... on the side of the client. I grew up burying my emotions, and as a result I lived between chronic states of overwhelmed and dissociation.
Serendipitously I found stumbled into therapy. I was lucky enough to undergo modalities that are now increasingly recognised as the most progressive and effective in trauma processing – modalities I use as a therapist now. Over time, I learned to fall in love with life and embrace the full spectrum of emotions that a fully lived life has to offer.
My journey is a beautiful full circle: I became a therapist and yoga teacher to journey with others to connect deeper with themselves through mind-body-soul. In turn, to also connect with the wider world around them.
While my clients have come to me seeking to resolve specific challenges in living, many of them find themselves beginning to experience life in greater capacity than before. It is the highest honour to bear witness to it all.
Tifanis Eu (She/Her)
M.Couns.(Behav.Health), B.Soc.Sci.
Principal Psychotherapist, Counsellor, TRE & Neurogenic Yoga Practitioner
Tifanis's practice is grounded in the understanding that we all have the innate capacity to heal and experience the fullness of life. To this end, her therapeutic approach taps into the brain's ability to register safety, process trauma and find resolution.
Her sessions are experiential, using an eclectic and intuitive blend of evidence-based therapies and somatic/body-informed practices such as EMDR, Brainspotting, cognitive behavioural therapy, transactional therapy, TRE (Trauma and Tension Release Exercise), breath techniques (pranayama) yoga, and other polyvagal-informed and inner child work.
In addition to her clinical role, she is a certified yoga teacher, highly attuned to the mind-body connection. Tifanis has experience working in Tech, Advertising & Marketing, and scaling her own small business in Consumer Packaged Goods. Her diverse professional background gives her a grounded, real-world perspective.

Clinical Approach
Effective therapy is predicated on a safe trusting relationship between the therapist and client. We work with your individuality to foster a connection in which you can feel seen, heard and held.
Therapeutic interventions only land when our nervous system feels safe. We thus prioritise building the experience of safety before engaging in any intense processing.
In addition to the therapeutic relationship, we use a range of somatic (body-based) tools to help you register a felt sense of safety in body and mind.
Talk-based therapy gives us the language and insight to understand our patterns. In retelling our story, we get to develop compassion for ourselves.
However, understanding our patterns does not necessarily change them. Emotional and visceral reactions may remain stuck on loop.
Informed by the neuroscience of trauma recovery, we specialise in therapies that work deep into the nervous system to heal at the visceral, emotional, survival levels. Read more about these modalities below under Specialisations.
Specialisations
EMDR is one of the most researched and effective modalities in the treatment of trauma and trauma-driven conditions including anxiety, stress, depression, grief and phobias.
Attachment-Focused EMDR is an evolution of standard EMDR that strongly prioritises attunement to safety and the nuances of individual and cultural needs.

Brainspotting is a powerful neurobiological tool to identify, process and releasing unresolved trauma and memories that are beyond reach of the conscious mind.
It harnesses the nervous system's natural processing power, promoting faster recovery and resolution.
Read more about how Brainspotting works here.
Trauma and Tension Release is an effective body-based (somatic) practice to evoke the body's innate ability to respond to and recover from stress and trauma, known as neurogenic tremors.
Neurogenic tremoring offers a deep, felt sense of relief and safety in the body. It can be especially relieving for those who experience chronic dysregulation in their bodies.
Neurogenic tremors can be evoked through Trauma and Tension Release Exercise (TRE) or Neurogenic Yoga, both of which are offered at the Psycho Soma.

Client Stories
"I cannot praise Tifanis enough for her professionalism and the profound effectiveness of her sessions. She is an absolute pleasure to work with—deeply calm and compassionate, yet appropriately firm when necessary to ensure you achieve genuine transformation rather than just sliding by.
Over the course of three months, Tifanis helped me address a lingering nervous system 'charge' stemming from a head-on car collision almost 30 years ago. Through somatic practices (tremoring) and EMDR, that charge has completely dissipated. I can finally sleep without 'lunging' out of bed, my overall anxiety has significantly decreased, and the memory of the accident rarely crosses my mind. The left and right brain integration she facilitated was honestly unbelievable.
Even if you aren't seeking deep trauma therapy, I highly recommend Tifanis to anyone wanting to regulate their constant 'fight/flight/freeze' anxiety. Instead of relying on self-help books that often ignore the complex connection between the mind, body, spirit, and nervous system, working directly with Tifanis is a massive step toward living a better life. You will not be disappointed with the investment of your time and money. Five stars across the board.”

Client Stories
Was at my wits end when I came across EMDR. Worked with Tifanis for the past 6 months and already seeing significant improvement. Not so much eye movement but I did tremoring, bilateral tapping, and some yoga on top of the usual talk therapy. Can say that I understand my psychology and ADHD better now thanks to Tif who very kindly explained things to me in metaphors I can relate to (using my interests). Also is very knowledgeable in stuff even outside mental health.
Client Stories
"I struggled with anxiety for many years, and it had a much bigger impact than I realized at the time. It affected my work performance and even my daily routine. I often went to sleep feeling anxious and would wake up with my palms sweating, already worried about what might happen at work that day. Even when I was on holiday, I sometimes couldn’t truly relax because my mind was constantly thinking about what was waiting for me when I returned.
Meeting Tifanis really changed things for me. From the beginning, she listened very patiently to everything I shared. She never rushed the conversation, and she asked thoughtful and relevant questions that helped me see my own situation more clearly. She helped me slowly identify the root of my anxiety — something that would have been very difficult for me to figure out on my own. She also introduced practical exercises that I could use anytime and anywhere. They were simple but very effective. I started practicing them regularly, and surprisingly, within less than two months I could already feel a significant difference.
Today, my anxiety is more than 90% gone. My relationship with work and daily life has changed in a very positive way. I feel calmer, more in control, and able to enjoy things again without constantly worrying about the future. I am truly grateful for the help and support Tifanis gave me. Looking back, I only wish I had met her earlier — it might have saved me many years of unnecessary mental stress. If anyone is struggling with anxiety or similar challenges, I would sincerely recommend speaking with her."

Client Stories
Our sincere thanks to Tifanis . She has helped me to get back my normal self. 6 months ago at the Newton MRT station , downtown line, this man ran out of the train & hit me. It affected me very badly, it was too traumatic. My son & daughter in law were encouraging me to try EMDR but I refused I thought it would go away after some time. But it is already 6 months so finally I accepted it.
That night when I was going to take my bath I found that I did not fear washing my hair, which for the past 6 months every day I feared it. I enjoyed the warm water flowing onto my hair. I went into my sleep without feeling the pain . Really a great difference... I accepted that that accident has already passed . When I met my old classmates during CNY dinner they exclaimed that I looked more vibrant then a month ago they saw me . They were so fascinated by my recovery , they asked for Tifanis contact. Again , thanks so much to Tifanis.

Had my first session with Tifanis and I experienced pleasant and joyful releasing from my body with the TRE and it helped me alleviate my issues. She connects with the client whole heartedly , passionately and authentically and professionally. So glad I went there. Look forward to the next sessions to be wholesome again.
