Monica combines her 21 years of clinical experience with a 300 hour Ayurveda health advisor certification. Her foundation in nutrition therapy as a registered dietitian shaped her understanding of disease and illness and helped her to create a bridge between disease and wellness.
She studied Ayurveda and yoga therapy with Susan Bass at the Sarasvati and Yoga Therapy Institute. During this program Monica learned the fundamentals of working with wellness at the cellular level, and has learned how to incorporate yoga therapy movement into her client's lives, particularly in regards to body trauma. This includes a deeper dive into how trauma impacts our nutrition and relationship with food.
Monica additionally studied and completed a 200 hr Yoga teacher training course, with an emphasis in meditation practices. It is here where she developed how to include mindfulness and intuition into her care plans for clients. She continues her studies and is currently in an advanced 800 hour AYT program at the Sarasvati and Yoga Therapy Institute.
She holds a Master of Science degree in Medical Nutrition Therapy from The Ohio State University.
