Expanding the Continuum of Care
Whole Health Yoga provides education and partnership opportunities for healthcare and behavioral health professionals interested in the complementary role of therapeutic yoga.
Watch the short video below to learn how an evidence-informed therapeutic yoga approach can complement traditional care.
Integrating Therapeutic Yoga Into Patient Care
Therapeutic yoga is increasingly used as a complementary practice within healthcare and behavioral health settings to support physical, emotional, and nervous system well-being.
Whole Health Yoga provides individualized and small-group therapeutic yoga sessions for women that can work alongside conventional medical care. These practices are informed by traditional yoga methods and supported by contemporary research on stress regulation, chronic pain management, and nervous system health.
Healthcare professionals often refer patients navigating:
chronic stress and related symptoms
chronic pain and fatigue
sleep imbalances
menopause and hormonal transitions
breast cancer
significant life transitions

Founder
With decades of global teaching experience and a deep commitment to therapeutic yoga, I have dedicated my work to helping others heal through movement, breath, and an evidence-informed approach to practice. After earning a Master’s degree from the Clinton School of Public Service at the age of 55, I set out to bridge the gap between modern medicine and the ancient wisdom of yoga.
Through Whole Health Yoga, I mentor service-oriented yoga teachers and therapists while also offering individualized online therapeutic yoga sessions and guiding retreats designed to support personal practice, rest, and renewal through a therapeutic approach to yoga.
Strategic Leadership & Public Service
My graduate work at the University of Arkansas Clinton School of Public Service included leading a national higher education needs assessment and strategic planning initiative for the William J. Clinton Presidential Library and Museum. Working collaboratively with university faculty and Library leadership, I developed an evidence-informed implementation plan to strengthen institutional partnerships. This experience continues to inform my approach to collaborative program development, interdisciplinary relationships, and evidence-informed practice.
