About My Clients
I enjoy working with clients who are open to using Mindfulness and Yoga as interventions. Mindful physical movement, like yoga, can help regulate the nervous system and reduce symptoms. I combine Mindfulness and Yoga with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to cultivate non-judgmental awareness while challenging negative patterns to develop better coping skills. I am trained in Trauma Center Trauma Sensitive Yoga which is an evidenced based approach for Developmental Trauma and Complex PTSD.
