Earlier in my own life, I lived in a body that was constantly braced, shaped by high standards, blurred boundaries, and a nervous system that rarely settled. While those traits once helped me function and succeed, they eventually took a toll on my physical wellbeing and my relationship with my body.

After many years of studying and practicing yoga, I eventually found my way to yoga therapy. There, I encountered a very different way of working with my persistently wound-up body and on-edge nervous system. Through my training and clinical work, I came to understand that what I needed, and what many of my clients need, is not fixing or forcing, but a clear, structured way to restore trust between the body and nervous system.

As a C-IAYT certified yoga therapist and E-RYT 500 yoga teacher, I draw on both traditional yoga and my background in the biological sciences to inform my work — an alchemy where ancient wisdom meets modern science meets intuition.

Today, I work with people who have spent much of their lives bracing, often leading to chronic tension, pain, and uncertainty around movement. My role is to help them rebuild trust in their bodies, so movement can feel more supportive, easeful, and even enjoyable again.
