Private Yoga Therapy Sessions
Yoga therapy is a holistic system that treats the whole individual- mind, body, and spirit.
A private yoga therapy session varies depending upon the goals of the individual. You can expect an intake session for gathering information and determining an objective together. Sessions will often include a check-in, followed by teaching a tool to use at home that usually takes no longer than 15-30 minutes a day. The consistent use of specific tools is vital to the success of the program.
Some tools may include and may be a combination of individualized pranayama (breathwork), asana (movement), meditations, and mantra or affirmations. Additional practices may also be recommended.
Appropriate and tailored for all ages and ability levels.
In-person or online.

1 on 1 somatic session
A one-on-one somatic session is done in a therapeutic container, as a co-meditation dyad, meeting whatever is present in the moment. The focus is on the felt sense within the body, listening to these bodily sensations as a source of information, shared awareness, relational presence, witnessing, nervous-system regulation, and healing. Through this direct experience with the body several outcomes are possible including awareness, regulation, and integration. Additional techniques are used, based upon the individual, these may include working with opposites, inquiry, anthropomorphizing, perspective taking, and integration.

Feeding your Demons
Feeding Your Demons is a contemplative practice developed by Lama Tsultrim Allione, adapted from the Tibetan Buddhist practice of Chöd and made accessible for modern psychological and therapeutic contexts.
At its core, it is a method for transforming inner conflicts such as fear, anxiety, anger, shame, trauma, or self-sabotaging patterns by meeting them with awareness and compassion rather than resisting or suppressing them.
You will be guided through a meditation and asked to voice your experience aloud.
