About Cyndi Roberts

Yoga therapy is where ancient practice meets modern science—thousands of years of yogic wisdom, applied through the lens of contemporary nervous system research.

If your body has been carrying more than it should—chronic pain that won’t resolve, anxiety that won’t quiet, a nervous system that never fully powers down—you don’t need another generic wellness routine. You need a therapeutic approach built around how your body actually works.
That’s what yoga therapy is, and it’s what I do.

I’m a Certified Yoga Therapist (C-IAYT) with 15+ years of clinical experience helping people move out of chronic stress, anxiety, and pain and back into a body they can trust. I hold an advanced certification through the International Association of Yoga Therapists, the highest professional standard in the field, and I’ve spent over a decade refining a nervous-system-based approach that goes beyond a typical yoga class.

My clients come to me carrying a wide range of conditions, including:

• Anxiety and chronic stress – including the kind that’s been running in the background so long it feels normal
• Chronic pain and postural issues – disc disease, arthritis, scoliosis, and the pain patterns that build around them
• Chronic illness – including Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), Lyme disease, long Covid, fibromyalgia, and thyroid-related symptoms
• Nervous system dysregulation and trauma – where the body stays braced for a threat that’s already passed
• Life-stage transitions – including motherhood, hormonal changes, and recovery from burnout

If you’ve tried to explain your symptoms to someone and felt like they didn’t quite get how connected it all is—the pain, the fatigue, the anxiety, the way stress shows up in your body—you’re in the right place. That connection is the whole point of yoga therapy.

Yoga therapy with me is individualized care, built around your specific history, diagnosis, and goals — the same way a physical therapist or counselor would build a treatment plan, just through a different set of tools that include but not limited to: breath, movement, meditation, and nervous system-based practices.

My work is grounded in Polyvagal Theory, Stephen Porges’ research on how the nervous system moves between states of stress and safety. Pairing that modern framework with ancient tools—breath, movement, meditation, mudra—is what makes yoga therapy different from a typical class: instead of managing symptoms, we work directly with the physiology that’s producing them. Sessions may include therapeutic asana, pranayama (breathwork), guided meditation, mudra, and trauma-informed movement, always adapted to your body and your pace.

Every session is private, one-on-one, and delivered over secure video conferencing (Zoom or Google Meet), which means you can work with me from anywhere, in a space where you already feel safe. I maintain detailed confidential documentation for every client, so your care stays consistent and responsive session to session.

I bring together three things that don’t often show up in the same practitioner: rigorous clinical training, over a decade of real-world experience across a wide range of complex conditions, and a genuine, steady presence while you practice.

I’ve spent years studying somatic movement, and the science of the nervous system, alongside the practice of yoga therapy, because I believe people deserve both an approach that’s warm and one that’s actually grounded in how healing works.

If you’re ready to work with someone who treats the whole picture, not just the symptom in front of them, I’d love to help.
