Getting to know Melissa Kwafo

Welcome! I am a Sensorimotor Therapist and Trauma Informed Yoga Instructor. I work with individuals who often take on roles in their family; community; and workplace that are dictated to them by others. They worry often; over plan; over research; and over think so things turn out just right". No one sees the stress; anxiety; or pain of being overlooked; unseen; and disconnected causes you. I help individuals recognize; reflect; and identify where they can make the changes needed to improve their quality of life and create a life that is full; authentic; and easeful."
