Sessions
"DJ incorporates a blend of yoga practices, traditional therapy, and other healing practices into one, letting each session flow and inform whether more talking or more movement is needed. I often joke that DJ is borderline magical, but the enormous amount of change and growth she has helped me make in repairing my once-damaging and hurtful thought patterns has felt nothing short of miraculous."
