I stumbled upon yoga sixteen years ago in the small ski town of Crested Butte, Colorado. I fell in love with the postures, the movement, the way my body felt when I was finished, and the quiet it brought to my mind. I am a distance runner and had pushed my body forward for years. In yoga I found the challenge of slowing down and being present. It has been a journey of exploration and discovery ever since. Yoga has guided me through marriage, graduate school, pregnancies, and always brought me back to ME.
Today I am a yoga instructor, a Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapist, and Social Worker. I am the mother of three and a wife. I am thrilled to offer my services to the community within Generations. I completed my BA from University of Colorado, my Masters in Social Work at Loyola University, my yoga teaching certification from NU Yoga in Chicago, and my Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy Certification from Phoenix Rising. I have worked with families and adolescents as a wilderness therapist in Oregon and as a crisis intervention therapist in Winnetka. I love working with people to find clarity and direction. We are all here on earth to enjoy life. And sometimes all we need is to search within ourselves to find what we are looking for or wanting. The answers lie within and yoga therapy is a wonderful tool to help connect with that sense of knowing.
