Yoga Therapy is a client-led, body-oriented therapeutic practice designed to meet you where you are, as you are. Rooted in both yoga philosophy and current research, yoga therapy blends breath, meditation, mindfulness, movement and other tools of yoga to provide holistic support for a wide variety of life’s challenges, such as persistent pain, grief and life transitions.
Sessions are available one-on-one or in small groups.
I’m thrilled to now offer Embodied Yoga Therapy at Rivertide Center. A yoga and aikido instructor of many years, I have undertaken a three-year advanced education from the School of Embodied Yoga Therapy. Upon completing my practicum, I will be certifying through the International Association of Yoga Therapists.
The focus of my practicum project is to support activists working toward collective well-being. The story that has been rising up for me, is that as our activist communities are increasingly targeted by our volatile political situation, support for them may not be meeting the intensity of their work. I am looking to explore ways that nervous system (co)regulation can help to nourish the work of activism alongside the well-being of activists. Some of the challenges faced by those on the front lines of activism that yoga therapy may help to address include exhaustion, insomnia, overwhelm, anger, and grief.
I am currently accepting clients for in-person one-on-one or small group sessions at Rivertide Center. I happily work with all genders, as well as with nontraditional relationships and lifestyles. I am comfortable working with people who identify as nonreligious, deeply religious, spiritual or none of the above. No previous yoga experience is needed. Yoga therapy integrates well with care from medical professionals and other wellness providers. If you or your organization would benefit from personalized support, let’s connect.
I recognize that safety is personal and requires transparency on the part of care providers and a strong sense of self-agency for clients. I am a cisgender white woman who identifies as queer, nonbinary, and dedicated to social justice & community care. If this resonates with you, i’d love to work together.
