I help people find their joy.

Life is hard sometimes and we all could use a little help figuring things out. My job is to help people weather the tough times and learn from them so they don’t end up repeating painful cycles.

I strive to provide a safe place for people to do the hard work of changing. That safety is provided through caring, warmth, compassion, non-judgment, and acceptance of where each individual is on his or her journey. It is also my job to name the problems I see and provide honest feedback…as gently and lovingly as possible.

My belief is that healing is a holistic process
…when body, mind, and spirit are all involved, healing “sticks” and the changes are more easily brought into daily life. My goal is to help people stay present to themselves enough to connect with the divine within and learn to live more deeply from their hearts rather than to problem solve, medicate, or put band-aids over deep problems.  Much of my philosophy has been developed from studies of Buddhism and yoga.

 

I will not live an unlived life. I will not live in fear Of falling or catching fire. I choose to inhabit my days, To allow my living to open me, To make me less afraid, More accessible; To loosen my heart until it becomes a wing a torch, a promise. I choose to risk my sgnificance To live so that which came to me as Seed Goes to the next as blossom, And that which came to me as blossom, Goes on as fruit.

Jami Grich, PhD

I am a licensed clinical psychologist in private practice and an Iyengar Yoga Instructor, trained at SIYI, the Southern Institute for Yoga Instructors. Other skills include EMDR and Imago Relationship Therapy. My Yoga Therapy training was in Bristol,Vermont at the Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy center where I completed Level 1 and Level 2 training. I believe that practicing yoga therapy is truly holistic healing because the body, mind and spirit are each fully involved in this work. My goal is to help people stay present to themselves enough to connect with the divine within and learn to live more deeply from their hearts.
