Yoga Therapist

You will be guided and supported through a process to achieve your goals towards healing in whatever areas of life are needed using precise tools of yoga. This includes working on physical, mental/emotional, and/or physiological imbalances through a specifically tailored practice. When appropriately applied, the tools of yoga include specific breathing and meditation practices with simple and relevant movements. As a yoga therapist, I am trained over a long period of time to understand how the application of yoga can be used beyond physical exercise and instead as a healing modality. I will assess your needs and goals and then adapt yoga tools, so you have the most effective and efficient practice for you. At first, we will meet weekly as your practice evolves with your needs. Then, gradually meet bi-weekly, monthly, bi-monthly, or whatever frequency is relevant as you develop a comfortable and sustainable routine just for you.

This process works to heal your body, breath, mind, behavior, and emotions, helping you have greater access to your intuition, spirit, and joy. When you work with me, you’ll have someone in your corner to listen, encourage, and provide practices and tools that you can do to start to feel and live better soon. I very much look forward to working together!
