Welcome, I'm so happy you are here

Certified Yoga Therapist, Registered Natropath, Masters in Educaation

I set foot on my first yoga mat in 2007 and quickly discovered that the mat was more than a surface on which to exercise and rather a place where I could surrender.  

​

I enrolled in my first teacher training, with the intention of deepening my own practice. Little did I know that this first training would be the catalyst to real change in my life. After extensive study I began to curate classes, trainings, and courses through a body-centered, trauma-aware lens. I has developed and led Chair Yoga trainings, facilitated workshops, has been a guest teacher in 200 hr Yoga Teacher Trainings, and co created Om School Yoga. In addition to these offerings, I am now offering Yoga Therapy to my community  - a missing piece that I believe completes the puzzle in modern day health care. 

​

As a Yoga Therapist, I combine traditional wisdom and evidence-based yoga practice, in response to human suffering and life-altering events. I use a combination of holistic therapeutic techniques and yogic principles and practices to help my clients approach healing through yoga. These deeply therapeutic practices for healing provide the keys to self-discovery, well-being, and transformation.


I am currently completing my mentorship through the School of Embodied Yoga Therapy (Ottawa) and am accepting new clients. I am particularly passionate about working with youth, adolescents and individuals suffering from burn out, stress, and grief.
