Spaces of Care and Belonging
Trauma Center -Trauma-Sensitive Yoga offers a low-cost, effective way to bring clinically validated body-based psychosocial support into community settings.
It fosters emotion regulation, interoception, agency, and belonging — especially valuable in communities facing high levels of stress, displacement, or violence.
I am deeply committed to this work because I have seen what it can mean in contexts where people’s rights and resources are restricted, and how it can support communities living under conditions of vulnerability, exclusion, or displacement.
If your organization is seeking accessible approaches to mental health and psychosocial support - let’s connect to explore how we can work together.
I have collaborated on a range of community and organizational projects through trauma-informed yoga.
These include training staff working in migration contexts on Mexico’s southern and northern borders with Fútbol Más México.
Facilitating a trauma-informed yoga program in a high-security prison in Oaxaca with Prison Yoga Project Mexico.
Offering weekly sessions for women survivors of violence in a Helsinki shelter.
Collaborating with the Association for Trauma and Dissociation in Finland to provide bi-annual trauma-sensitive yoga courses for survivors of interpersonal trauma.
