Trauma-Responsive Consultation

Firefly Yoga International offers trauma-responsive consultation for those in the wellness space including health coaches, studio and gym owners/managers, entrepreneurs, and more! All training and consulting services are intended to guide leaders on the journey to becoming trauma-informed. We view trauma through a public health lens while applying an interdisciplinary approach drawing on various fields. We are rooted in design thinking and collaborate to find strategies that make sense for your environment and each unique context.

We equip leaders with the knowledge, tangible skills, and action steps to create protective and sustainable structures that serve as the foundation for a trauma-informed approach. Firefly aims to serve as a collaborative partner - meeting every client exactly where they’re at and support the journey towards progress not perfection.
