About Efu

Euphrasia (Éfu) Nyaki was born and raised in Tanzania where I earned a bachelor of science degree, trained as a Science  teacher,  and later on was trained as a healer using holistic methods from my own ancestors. When I was 27 years old I travelled to the USA where I joined a religious order, and four years later I moved to Brazil where I have been living for the past 30 years. In Brazil I have been working with popular movements especially with women groups  facilitating training and therapy for trauma healing using Somatic Experiencing ® ️ trauma resolution and Family Constellation Systems Therapy. I also co- founded an NGO known as AFYA: Holistic Healing Center located in the northeast of Brazil.  I am a  Faculty Member  of Somatic Experiencing®️, and a Professor of Family Constellation System Therapy by Hellinger Institute, and with these tools, I have  been travelling to different countries (India, Egypt, South Korea, China, Bolivia, Peru, Spain, Portugal, Sweden, Uruguay, Tanzania, USA ) facilitating trainings and workshops on trauma healing.
