Relationship and Holistic Life Coaching in Los Angeles and on Zoom

Your life looks good. Does it feel like yours?

You’ve probably accomplished a lot of what you set out to do. You’ve built a career and a home, you show up for the people you love, and you’ve learned a great deal about yourself along the way.

Now you’re wondering what it would feel like to live with a little more freedom. To say the true thing sooner, and feel closer to the person you love because of it. To know what you need without talking yourself out of it.

We’d love to help you find out.

What brings people here

Most of the people we work with come to us about love, in one form or another.

You want your marriage or partnership to feel more intimate, and you’re willing to look at your own patterns as part of that.

You don’t need your partner to come with you. Very often, one person doing their own work is what changes the whole relationship.

You’re ready for a new relationship, one where you can show up as yourself from the very beginning.

You’ve become the person everyone needs, and your own wants have slowly slipped to the bottom of the list.

Or you simply sense there’s a more honest, more joyful way to live, and you’d like some help finding it.

Our clients often look successful from the outside. They’re thoughtful, loving people who have already done plenty of inner work. They come because they want what they know to actually change how they live and love.

A quiet moment before a coaching session at the Word of Mouth studio
Paige Craig 3 reviews

I’m no stranger to energy work, yet Word Of Mouth stands out as one of the most calming experiences with measurable results that I’ve had. The session began with guided Pilates stretches that softened my physical tension, opening emotional channels to allow more flow. Yonatan is intuitive and paternal holding space in a way that feels safe and nurturing. Without having to spill my life history, like CBT or talk therapy, I was able to discuss only the current topic to set the stage for focused energy clearing. The session was relaxing and I left each session feeling a little lighter. The critical factor though, was that the reiki WORKED. Weeks and months after my sessions, the results I sought were continually happening. My relationship with my partner dramatically improved, and even my inner voice became more patient, more compassionate, and more steadfastly positive. I highly recommend working with Yonatan and/or Jaime. They are a fantastic team and extraordinary individuals.

My wife and I knew we needed assistance, but every couples counselor we looked at felt cold and clinical, not what we were looking for. When we found Word of Mouth, something felt different. Jaime & Yonatan brought a warmth and humanity to the process that made us both feel safe. Their holistic approach to relationship coaching didn’t just help us communicate better, it guided us back to each other. Our relationship today is stronger than it has ever been. These two are genuinely special, and I mean it when I say this work saved my marriage.

There are people and places that really have an impact on you. I first came in to try something new out of curiosity and didn’t expect much beyond that, but I ended up staying for the coaching and I’m really glad I did. It helped me feel more grounded, calmer, and way more connected to myself. If you’re looking for something holistic and attentive, and supportive in LA, I can’t recommend it enough.

A place to practice being yourself

We start by getting curious about the life you want.

What feels true for you right now? What have you been afraid to say out loud? Which of your familiar patterns still help you, and which have started to feel too small?

Most patterns have a story behind them, and we make room for the experiences that shaped you. Our focus stays on the life and the relationships you want to build from here.

Each session becomes a place to practice. You get to say the honest thing, notice what you need, and choose how you want to respond. Then, week by week, you take those choices home with you.

What a session feels like

Sessions happen in our studio, on Zoom, or a mix of both, whatever fits your life.

We usually start with the body: a little movement and some steadying breath, so you can arrive and notice how you’re feeling. This works just as well from your own living room.

The heart of our time is the coaching itself. We talk, we ask questions, and we make space for things you may not have had room to say anywhere else.

Often we close with Reiki, sound, or another quiet practice, depending on what feels right that day. Over Zoom, the sound comes through Yonatan’s music, and the bowls and gong stay in the studio.

Some weeks are mostly conversation. Others call for more movement or more stillness. You help shape every session.

Twelve weeks together

We begin with one 90-minute session a week for twelve weeks.

That rhythm gives us time to really know each other, to catch patterns as they show up in your actual life, and to keep coming back to the changes you want.

If weekly Pilates or movement work would help, we can talk about adding it alongside your sessions.

At the end of three months, we’ll look back together at where you are. Some people feel complete. Others choose to keep going. There’s no expectation that you’ll need coaching forever.

Investment: $4,500 for the three-month container, or $1,500 a month. $4,200 if you pay in full upfront.

Who will I work with?

You’ll work one to one with Jaime or Yonatan.

Yonatan Elkayam, coach and Usui Reiki Master Teacher at Word of Mouth

Yonatan Elkayam

Yonatan brings an artist’s curiosity and very precise attention. Music, movement, creativity, and a deep interest in how people relate to their own experiences all shape his sessions. He currently has the most room for new coaching clients.

Jaime Elkayam, coach and Usui Reiki Master Teacher at Word of Mouth

Jaime Elkayam

Jaime brings a warm, body-centered style. Her years as an athlete and a leader shape the way she works with the body, with emotion, and with change. She takes on a small number of coaching clients, so with her it really comes down to fit.

Not sure who’s right for you? That’s part of what the discovery call is for.

Working with both of us

Every so often, we take on a coaching relationship with both of us together. It’s for one person who wants both of our perspectives on their own work.

It’s a deeper commitment for everyone involved, and it’s offered at a premium rate. We take on very few of these, and we decide on each one personally, so it starts with a short private note rather than a calendar booking.

Ask about working with both of us

Your first conversation

It starts with your story.

The discovery call is free and lasts about an hour. It’s a real conversation, not a sales pitch.

You’ll tell us where you’ve been, what you’re carrying, and what you’d love your life to look like. We’ll tell you how we work, answer your questions, and be honest about whether we’re the right fit for each other.

You don’t need to prepare anything.

Coaching FAQ

No. Coaching is non-clinical and looks forward. We make room for your past, and the focus stays on the choices and ways of being you want to grow into now. Coaching can sit well alongside therapy, and with your permission we’re happy to coordinate with your therapist. If you’re in crisis or need diagnosis or clinical treatment, please start with a licensed mental health professional.

Coaching vs therapy: which one fits where you are now?

Yes. Sessions can be in our studio, on Zoom, or a mix of both.

No. We bring in movement, breath, coaching, Reiki, and sound based on what you need and what you’re comfortable with.

Usually you’ll work with one of us. Working with both of us is available by private inquiry.

Yes, though it may not look like the couples sessions you’re picturing. Most of the work is each of you doing your own one-to-one work and bringing it back to the relationship. When it serves the work, we bring you together for a joint session. Who works with whom is something we shape with you on the discovery call. More about couples coaching.

Yes. Our 90-minute Integrative Wellness Session is a full session with Jaime or Yonatan, the same as a coaching session, for $375. It’s an easy way to feel what coaching is like before you commit.

Inner Alchemy is our self-paced 28-day chakra program, and the full $111 can be credited toward 1:1 work with us, with no expiration.
