Hi, I'm Charlotte Jones.

Studies have shown that one of the greatest drivers of success in a therapeutic relationship is the presence of trust and safety between practitioner and client. First and foremost, it is my intention to ensure that you feel heard, seen and valued in our work together. As a yoga therapist, I strive to meet every person with compassion and openness, and I approach yoga therapy as a deeply collaborative process.

​

My greatest passions in this field have come from my own ongoing path of navigating chronic pain and dis-ease, trauma healing, creating a meaningful spiritual life, and committing myself to personal growth and liberation. My mission is to be a loving presence for everyone I meet; to support those who have experienced trauma and chronic stress to reconnect with feelings of safety and connection; and to meet clients exactly where they're at on the road to physical, emotional and spiritual wholeness.

​

I believe that approaching health and wellbeing holistically is not only more effective, but essential. We are multidimensional beings whose lives are intimately shaped by the societal structures and systems in which we are embedded. Our experiences are shaped by our personal and collective histories as well as our present realities. At the same time, I believe peace, stillness, and contentment are available to us in every moment.

​

My practice is heavily informed by the lineage and teachings of T. K. V. Desikachar as well as Gary Kraftsow's Viniyoga techniques of the American Viniyoga Institute. I have received extensive training in trauma-informed practice and always instruct in a trauma-conscious manner. I also frequently use Stephen Porges' Polyvagal Theory and yoga philosophy's Kosha model as frameworks for assessing health and wellbeing. ​​​

 

In my free time I enjoy spending time outdoors, crafting, cycling, and spending time with loved ones.
