Lighthouse Yoga Therapy
Why Yoga Therapy?
I serves those who deal with the following: grief, anxiety, trauma/abuse, dysregulated nervous system, PTSD, depression, pain, mood disorders, sleep issues, and ADHD.
The Yogic Philosophy views humans as multi-dimensional beings that are comprised of more than just our gross physical bodies but also mental, breath, emotional, and bliss subtle bodies. Thus, Yoga Therapy brings a whole person approach to treatment.
Yoga Therapy goals are to eliminate, reduce, or manage symptoms that cause suffering; bring balance, increase self-awareness, alchemize pain into power, shift mindsets & negative thinking patterns, awaken the body and help restore a fully embodied connection.
“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life, and you will call it fate”

Generally, the initial intake can take up to 90 minutes with follow up sessions at 75 minutes over the course of 4-12 weeks (or months) with weekly or bi-weekly sessions. This is contingent upon the client's goals and personalized treatment plans. We can meet in person with a private home visit or virtually. Sessions can include asana practice, meditation, yoga Nidra, somatic & embodiment practices, yogic philosophy & spirituality, sound therapy, suggested reading, mindset development, lifestyle suggestions, pranayama (breathwork), and may include homework. Treatment plans often begin simply and can be revised along the way to meet client’s goals.
