I’m Tori — a Somatic Therapy Practitioner, Yin Yoga teacher, photographer, and Somatic body worker. I grew up in the Bay Area, California, going on meditation retreats with my parents, dancing in a junior modern dance company, connecting to the natural world while always feeling deeply called to the healing arts. I was introduced to meditation, yoga, and massage at a young age. These practices have remained with me throughout my life. I trained in a junior modern dance company from 3rd grade through high school, which led me to pursue dance in college, where I received an Interdisciplinary B.A. in Dance, Somatics, and Psychology from The Evergreen State College. There, I delved into Somatics as part of my self-led choreography studies and quickly found my way to Somatic Psychology. I propelled myself in this direction to better understand my own mental health, but even more so, I fostered a true calling to help others. After college, I completed over 500 hours of Yoga Teacher Training in the Bay Area and Hawaii, including trauma-informed Yoga and Yin Yoga. I taught yoga in San Francisco before moving to rural Colorado, where I am raising my two daughters. I am now trained as a Psycho-Somatic Therapy Practitioner through the Integrative Psych Institute. I guide individuals through deep emotional exploration, helping them build an inner connection with their body and inner voice, release emotions, explore the body-mind connection, and establish a nourishing relationship with themselves. This work is deeply meaningful to me and has been transformative in my own life; it is my calling, and I cannot wait to support you on your healing journey.
