Although I have been teaching high school English and Psychology for 30 years, along the way I became convinced that academic knowledge alone does not necessarily keep people happy and healthy. In response to what I was seeing in my classes and in the community, I began to deepen my own yoga and meditation practices. I finally decided to formally train to be a yoga therapist at the Minded Institute. Since then I have worked with teens and adults, primarily those suffering from stress, anxiety and depression, and until recently ran weekly therapeutic yoga classes in a physiotherapy studio. I have now relocated to the Bay Area in California with my husband and animals. I have 3 children in college. I currently see clients 1:1 and in groups.
