In this episode, Melissa shares with me what Yoga Therapy is about. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that there is a lot of crossover between my trauma training background and the Yoga Therapy approach. 

What started as a podcast interview, ended up becoming a beautiful conversation, where Melissa and I shared with one another our perspective on healing and supporting clients land safely in their body. Melissa shares what 'client-led' means and how powerful it is to be supported by a practitioner who is putting you in the driver seat (something you may not have gotten earlier in your life, or maybe even now!). 

Melissa is a Yoga Therapist and a Yoga teacher. She also teaches group classes, weaving in her Yoga Therapy presence. She is also a teacher for the Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy Training.
