Yoga therapy is a holistic discipline based on the premise that the mind, body, and spirit are connected. An emerging field in America, yoga therapy hovers somewhere between a doctor’s visit and a stretching class. Yoga therapists identify physical and emotional symptoms, then recommend yoga postures to address these symptoms and their underlying causes. Clients typically leave with instructions on a custom series of poses to practice at home. These poses change each week according to the student’s experience.

I have experience teaching yoga to people with Multiple Sclerosis, many kinds of cancer, and eating disorders. Each of these groups of people have different needs depending on their disease, their individual physical and mental needs, as well as their prognosis for healing. I also have experience teaching yoga to people with physical injuries, people with generally healthy bodies, and people with a variety of mental health concerns. If you are interested in receiving yoga therapy, whether in conjunction with talk therapy or alone, please let me know. We will work together to find a format and structure for healing that fits your individual needs.
