I had come across JoAnn’s breath work sessions one day while doing some research on somatic health and the benefits. Naturally I’m an optimist I thought well one day, I’d love to try this as I have spent MANY countless years in front of a therapist constantly feeling like all I was doing was pulling off a bandaid to an already “healed wound” it was really defeating. Medical science only goes so far and your “therapist” is only as good as their knowledge & experience. I remember leaving therapy one day feeling the most defeated I’ve ever felt in my life. Hopeless. When your “therapist” turns to you and says “ I’m sorry, I don’t know how to help you “ I knew then I needed to find an alternative since those words should not ever come from a mental health provider, ever. Genuine or not, it could really send someone who is in the most critical point in their life over the edge, Feel like they are “broken” forever and you must accept that fate since this a “trusted” medical doctor. Over my years of therapy through this method I was given so many “tools” to help be work through certain situations in my life and how to navigate. It wasn’t until one Saturday in September, the 22nd of 2024 that I attend my first in person self care Sunday, it was the most intense but rewarding validation that I needed to know that this WAS the next phase of my healing journey from an extremely traumatic childhood where I developed and was diagnosed with Cptsd, trauma, PTSD, all as a result to things that had happened to me, not as a direct cause of my actions. The calming, soothing comforting feeling of JoAnn’s presence makes it easy to want to explore this route of somatic healing as this is truly intentional and in order to be able to connect with your patients in the manner in which She does is truly a gift, so incredibly thankful she’s found her nitch because I know my journey is just beginning and she inspires me to know that everyone’s journey is different but you aren’t alone. Thank you Joann for all that you do to help others & incredibly thankful our paths have cross.

I only wish I lived closer so I could attend live sessions. I have done a couple of virtual breath work sessions with Jo and can not say enough kind things about the experience. She is able to guide you in a calm and reassured way that puts you right at ease. Especially, if you are new and unsure of this whole breath work thing. She does not judge and explains the process in a thoughtful way. I felt calm and refreshed and know that I will be booking her for future events as well.

I met Jo Anne over a year ago at my first breath work session. I dove head first into one of the most profound experiences of my life - healing trauma past and present. I knew this was something I needed to know more about. Jo Anne offered a 7 week course with somatic breath work sessions online. Both in person and online offer a unique experience. I have attended numerous sessions no two the same and with each one I find more peace. Like peeling back layers✨🫶

I love every breathwork session I have with Jo/ I’ve done both in-person and virtual. I remember feeling so much lighter after my very first session which was virtual. I could tell that I had released so much emotional heaviness. Then I confirmed that lift after doing an in person workshop several months later. It was affirming to know how much progress id made in my spiritual development. I now live with less fear and anxiety. I also embrace and honor my own power and gratitude for what I do have in life rather than worrying about what I don’t.

I have taken numerous virtual breathwork class and done an in person class with Jo Anne and each time I leave feeling lighter and more clear headed about my path I’m on. Jo Anne creates such a safe and welcoming space. This is an amazing modality for anyone who is open minded to being the best version of themselves.

Jo Anne is one of the most caring and kind ladies I’ve met. Her passion for what she does have influenced many women including myself. For her it’s not a job, it’s a calling.
