Welcome to Holistic Yoga Therapy

Therapeutic Yoga for Whole-person Wellness

BODY • MIND • CIRCUMSTANCE

Holistic care considers the whole person: body, mind, and circumstance, rather than any single symptom in isolation.

Yoga therapy takes this same approach to health and well-being, deepening the relationship between self, others, and the world, including the discomfort carried in the body, distractions of the mind, the weight carried in the heart,

and the transitions that reshape a life.

Blending timeless tradition with research-backed science, therapeutic yoga supports those managing stress, anxiety, and burnout, as well as chronic pain, fatigue, and functional movement, serving as an effective tool for pre and post operative care. An inclusive, adaptive practice built on a collaborative therapeutic relationship, it offers a unique path toward well-being

Sessions are offered one-on-one and in small groups, supporting individuals, community organizations,

and centers alike. Using The Whole-person Approach, therapeutic tailored sessions are offered in person or virtually.

The Whole-person Approach

BODY

The physical self. Pain, injury, operations and the toll a demanding life can take on the body. Practices for recovery, resilience, long term functional movement ~ to feel embodied.

MIND

The psychological self, mental and emotional alike. Thought patterns, stress responses, and the harder emotional seasons of life. Empowering tools for regulation, grounding, and a steadier

sense of self.

CIRCUMSTANCE

The life surrounding the self. Change, loss, situations outside anyone's control, and clarity and trust around decisions. Support for finding footing again, or building confidence in inner-knowing, one breath at a time.

Like so many people after quarantine, I found myself struggling with anxiety and depression. I was relying on prescription medication and alcohol just to get through each day and had little motivation beyond surviving.

Janel created a personalized program that met me exactly where I was, with compassion, patience, and practical, manageable steps. Even the small "snacks" of yoga, meditation, and mindfulness began to shift something in me. Over time, I felt stronger, more connected to myself, and more motivated to care for my body and mind.

Eleven months later, I've weaned off antidepressants, stopped drinking nightly, exercise regularly, sleep through the night, and truly enjoy life again. Janel's guidance gave me the tools and confidence to create lasting change, and I will always be grateful for her wisdom, empathy, and unwavering support

As an 80-year-old seeking both physical relief and greater peace of mind, I came to yoga therapy hoping bring more balance to my life, and address arthritic pain and limited mobility in my hips and hands.

The sessions were thoughtful and personalized. Over the course of our work together, I noticed a greater sense of calm and less mental clutter. I also gained practical tools and renewed motivation to support my well-being through consistent self-care.
I would recommend Janel's yoga therapy services to anyone seeking a supportive, individualized approach to greater balance, self-awareness, and well-being
