What is Yoga Therapy?
Yoga Therapy is an individualized approach to well-being that uses yoga principles and practices to support the whole person—body, mind, and emotions.
My approach is somatic, which means we pay attention to your lived experience from the inside: the sensations, movements, breath patterns, and signals that can be easy to overlook when life keeps you in your head.
Rather than following a fixed sequence of poses, we explore practices that respond to your needs and abilities. This may include gentle movement, breath awareness, guided rest, reflection, and practical education about your nervous system.
You don't need to be flexible, experienced in yoga, or able to explain exactly what you're feeling. We begin where you are.
Somatic Yoga Therapy
Somatic Yoga Therapy offers a unique approach to holistic healing, allowing clients to access the innate intelligence of their bodies to facilitate transformation and growth. Whether it's through gentle movement, guided visualization, or mindful inquiry, somatic practices provide a powerful tool for self-discovery and healing.
As a Certified Yoga Therapist, I draw on somatic awareness, therapeutic movement, breath, mindfulness, and nervous system education to help you develop a deeper understanding of your body and its needs. Rather than following a set sequence of poses, we explore practices that meet you where you are, physically, mentally, and emotionally.
What A Yoga Therapy Session Looks Like
When we work together, I am fully present with you, meeting you wherever you are in your journey. Whether you seek support for chronic physical pain, emotional disturbances, past trauma, or current life challenges, I am here for you. If you are experiencing depression, anxiety, anger, sadness, stress, or confusion, know that you are not alone.
My goal is to support your overall well-being, ensuring you feel seen, supported, and nurtured. Through our work together, I hope you experience love and compassion toward yourself.
Yoga Therapy is a holistic approach that applies the ancient wisdom of yoga to address individuals' needs across physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual dimensions. As a Yoga Therapist, I work through the lens of the bio-psycho-social-spiritual model, recognizing the interconnectedness of the body, mind, and spirit.
Through customized sessions, Yoga Therapy offers a comprehensive toolkit that includes posture, breathwork, and meditation practices tailored to each individual's unique requirements. Unlike traditional yoga instruction, Yoga Therapy focuses on supporting individuals in finding relief from health conditions or symptoms that are troubling them.
