Personalized yoga therapy + stretch therapy treatment: find your practices to reduce stress, anxiety and pain and help you live with ease.

 
 

Why try yoga therapy + somatic bodywork?

In our society, there are many common ways of living that can create imbalances.

Many of us often experience some level of dis-ease and disconnection from ourselves as a result, which can feel like:

Treatment for burnout, chronic pain, tension

Tension

 
 

 

Treatment for anxiety, depression, stress, sleep

Anxiety + Depression Stress

Sleeplessness

 
 
 
Treatment for fatigue, burnout, lonliness, grief

Fatigue Loneliness Unprocessed Grief

I experienced many of these symptoms myself, until I found the yogic practices and bodywork tools that reconnect me with myself and bring my system back into balance.

Now, I work with clients experiencing stress, burnout, anxiety and pain via a comprehensive assessment and holistic treatment planning process, helping them find and implement the specific body-based tools and practices they need to restore balance to their lives as they reconnect with themselves.

Personalized Healing Sessions in Denver + Online

Your energetic and physical make-up, lifestyle and experiences are one-of-a-kind. Your therapeutic sessions should be too.

Many clients come to me feeling a relatable combination of stress, pain, burnout, anxiety, depression and/or trouble sleeping, focusing or committing to supportive routines. While many treatment methods only provide temporary relief without addressing the root causes of our imbalances, yoga therapy tools and practices address the very foundations of our lives and reconnect us with our deepest selves. This is essential for lasting healing.

As a Certified Yoga Therapist (C-IAYT), I facilitate this healing by evaluating your:

  • Current physical, mental, emotional and energetic imbalances

  • Default nervous system patterns

  • Movement, sleep and work habits

  • Levels of awareness

  • Lifestyle and routines

  • Health and wellness goals

and offering practices that will allow your body to access its natural healing abilities. This is done in session with your direct feedback and collaboration, and after each yoga therapy session I email you your personalized treatment recommendations and a summary of our session findings.

Yoga therapy sessions and treatment plans are crafted to address the whole person to optimize healing, and can include a combination of personalized breathing techniques, somatic practices, awareness practices, guided meditations, sleep practices, affirmations, routine building, lifestyle changes and more. These sessions mainly focus on applying yogic techniques for anxiety relief, depression relief, stress relief, pain relief, grief support, energy balancing and sleep health.

Stretch therapy sessions are personalized bodywork sessions that help you relieve tension and pain while increasing range of motion, mobility, flexibility, strength and overall wellbeing, and can be combined into yoga therapy treatment packages or booked on their own.

The International Association of Yoga Therapists (IAYT) defines yoga therapy as β€œthe professional application of the principles and practices of yoga to promote health and well-being within a therapeutic relationship that includes personalized assessment, goal setting, lifestyle management, and yoga practices for individuals or small groups.”

As a Certified Yoga Therapist with IAYT, I am committed to responsible and ethical practice and to my own professional and personal growth. I am also bound by their Code of Ethics and Scope of Practice.

β€œMy experience with Katie was absolutely wonderful. Her energy is bright, calming, sincere and so supportive as she worked out a plan with me to adjust my daily routine. Her sessions are incredibly thorough and effective: after just one visit with her she managed to pinpoint a habit of mine that was causing agitation and I have been able to reduce my anxiety level enormously.”

β€” Cree C., First Time Assessments client

 

β€œWith the [practices] you helped me slowly shift into, I have so much less stress or pent-up anxiety to need to come down from. I am shocked at how different my life is, how much more gentleness and grace and happiness I have in it now. It’s peace throughout the day, not just relief at night. It’s joy! How can I ever thank you?”

β€” Colleen S., 2 month yoga therapy client
