Hi There! Welcome to my updated website.
A separate website for mediation classes, workshops, and services is coming soon at www.meditatewithcherie.com.
I'm a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, a Somatically Oriented Trauma Therapist, an IAYT-Certified Yoga Therapist, an iRest Meditation teacher, a cross culture individual, and a military spouse. I work with individuals and couples wanting to go deeper on their journey of recovery and self discovery.
I have over 10 years of clinical experience as a mental health provider, and more than 15 years of experience as a yoga professional. I am passionate about deep inner knowing, health, wellbeing, and nurturing a sense of clarity and purpose in our lives in an embodied way. I typically work with people who feel they have reached a plateau, are stuck or stagnant along their path, and need assistance getting to the other side. I have an inquisitive approach, and offer an open, compassionate, calm presence for my clients as we work together.
Culture, Identity, Neuroscience, the Gottman Method for Couples Therapy, Depth Psychology, Sikolohiyang Pilipino, mindful movement, Yoga Therapy, EMDR, the NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM), and iRest Yoga Nidra all guide and inform my work.
I believe in empowering clients and supporting their connection to the wisdom deep within that gets clouded or buried under the layers of stress, trauma, anxiety, and grief.
