Yoga therapy

Gentle, personalized practices to help you come home to yourself slowly, safely, and with compassion

You’re not doing it wrong,
You’ve been doing it without support.

People often come in thinking they’re the problem; that they should be able to handle everything on their own, stay consistent, keep it all together, or somehow be further along by now. But what they’ve really been doing is trying to navigate stress, overwhelm, and disconnection without enough support, without continuity, and without a steady presence to help their nervous system feel safe enough to shift. You deserve a gentler, supported path forward.

Sattva Yoga Therapy offers something an app, a single class, or a general routine can’t:

An attuned relationship with someone who understands your nervous
system and tailors each session to what your body actually needs in that moment.

It’s hard to stay consistent on your own when you’re guessing what practice to do, pushing past your capacity, or feeling like you’re “failing” every time life gets overwhelming. What would it feel like to receive real-time guidance, compassionate accountability, and practices chosen specifically for your capacity, your lived experience, and your pace?

Apps give you content. Classes give you choreography.
This work gives you connection, continuity, and a healing presence
that helps your nervous system feel safe enough to change.

This is what’s waiting for you

  • A practice built around you

    We begin with what your body is already whispering, and adapt to your pace, your history, and your capacity - offering movement, breath, and awareness that meet you exactly where you are. This is a space where your needs shape the work and your healing unfolds in partnership with your own inner wisdom.

  • Practices to tend to yourself

    These are the small, steady ways you return home to your own body. They invite you to pause, soften, and listen, offering moments of breath rest, and gentle presence that help you recalibrate. These practices become a way of honoring your needs in real time, reminding you that tending is a form of healing.

  • A body-mind practitioner who witnesses and supports you

    Supporting careseekers through body based practices that cultivate awareness, resiliency, and trust.

  • Accountability that feels like care, not demand

    Offering gentle touchpoints, small invitations, and warm check‑ins reminding you that you’re not doing this alone. Your pace, your capacity, and your lived experience are always honored. 

You are ready, Let’s make a plan

You might feel tired, overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure where to begin and that’s exactly why this work exists.

I want you to know:

You don’t have to push through alone anymore.

There’s a calm, steady space waiting for you where your body can soften, your nervous system can settle, and you can finally feel supported enough to start healing in a way that actually meets you.

I came to Sattva Yoga Therapy because I believe in the magic and wisdom of our bodies.

So many people are trying to heal, regulate, reconnect, and “do the work,” but they’re doing it mostly alone. They’re trying to think their way through stress, push past overwhelm, and blame themselves when they can’t stay consistent. Somewhere along the way, the body gets treated like the problem instead of part of the path back. I wanted to offer something gentler than that.

In yoga therapy, we bring the body back into the conversation. We slow down, we listen, we notice what is actually happening, not what we think “should” be happening. Then we work with what’s real - using movement, breath, rest, somatic awareness, and nervous system practices that fit your capacity.

This is one-on-one support, which means it is not about keeping up, performing, or doing yoga “right.” Bodies are not machines and healing is not a group project with a deadline.

My hope is that you feel safe, seen, and unhurried. I want you to feel held, not pushed. Supported, not judged. Like your body is allowed to show up exactly as she is.

My approach is slow, collaborative, and deeply attuned. We build practices that support your life, your body, your pace, and your actual nervous system - not the imaginary version of you who has unlimited time, energy, and emotional bandwidth.

Nothing we do is about doing more just for the sake of doing more. It’s about finding what actually helps.

  • From the moment you walk in, she makes you feel comfortable, welcomed, and cared for. Her massage skills are amazing — she listens, understands exactly what your body needs, and creates the perfect relaxing environment. I left feeling lighter, refreshed, and completely renewed.

    —Missy W.

  • I’m 38 weeks pregnant and went for a prenatal massage. HIGHLY HIGHLY recommended. As soon as I entered her building it was just a calm and comfortable environment. She was very considerate and accommodating. I am very eager to book another massage with her!

    —Hallie W.

  • I love Lisa and have been using her massage services for nearly ten years. She is kind, professional and intuitive. I’ve sent several of my friends her way and they love her as well! My favorite is her cupping, it always brings me a ton of relief from neck pain and head aches.

    —Shea T.

  • One of the best massage places I have been to. The studio is clean, calm, and inviting. Lisa really knows her stuff. She is professional, and knows how to work out those sore and tense areas that are problematic. She offers the use of hot and cold rocks, as well as cupping (I did not experience that in my visit). I will be visiting her regularly.

    —Brittain V.

  • I'm dumbfounded by the results of cupping! I injured my back over 50 years when I was 19 - do the math! - and y'day and today have been such a relief. Lisa also urged me to ice my swollen face from a sinus infection, and it helped so much I fell asleep with the icepack on my head. She is amazing and I'd be miserable without her help.

    -Annie L.

  • Lisa has created such a wonderful space to feel safe, comfortable, and ready to listen to your body and learn what it needs. An absolutely lovely human with an incredible gift of touch and intuition. A true treasure in the community.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Sattva Yoga Therapy is a personalized,  body mind focused approach using the tools of yoga to empower you along your path. Instead of following a set routine, we work together to understand what your body needs using movement, breath, rest, and somatic tools to support  awareness, connection, and relief.

  • A regular class teaches poses. Yoga therapy supports you. It’s one‑on‑one, tailored to your history, your capacity, and your nervous system. We move slowly, with choice, attunement, and practices selected specifically for your needs.

  • Not at all. You don’t need to be flexible, strong, or familiar with yoga. We start exactly where you are, and everything is adapted to your comfort and ability.

  • We begin with a gentle check‑in, explore what’s present in your body and nervous system, and move through personalized practices. Sessions often include movement, breathwork, rest, somatic awareness, and supportive conversation.

  • Wear anything comfortable that allows you to move and breathe easily. Bring water if you’d like. Everything else like mats, props, blankets are provided.

    Yoga therapy is not a replacement for medical or mental‑health treatment, but it can be a powerful companion. Offering nervous system support, gentle movement, breathwork, and practices that help you feel steadier, more connected, and less alone in what you’re navigating.

  • Both. You can choose the format that feels most supportive and accessible for you.

  • Most people benefit from weekly or bi‑weekly sessions to build continuity and steadiness. We can decide together what rhythm feels sustainable and supportive.

  • Yes. You’ll receive a simple intake form so I can understand your history, needs, and goals before we begin. It’s short, gentle, and designed to help me support you well.

  • Flexibility is not required. Yoga therapy is about support, not performance. We work with your real body, your real capacity, and what feels safe and accessible for you.

You don’t have to navigate this by yourself anymore. Let’s create a steadier path forward--together.
