Integrated Wellness for Mind, Body and Spirit
Bio: Hello, I’m Stefanie Rico (pronouns: she/her).
I'm a Registered Social Worker, Psychotherapist and Yoga Instructor with over a decade of experience working in the social service field including nonprofit management, frontline youth work and hospital-based research. I truly love my work and feel so lucky to combine my passions for mental health, community-building, and creative expression to inform a holistic approach to well-being.
My lived experiences of burnout, social anxiety and generally feeling like I never quite ‘fit in’ led me on a journey of seeking ways to feel better within myself and in the world. I also dealt with health conditions that flared up in my 20s, prompting me to evaluate my relationship to my emotions and physical body.
As a lifelong learner walking alongside you on this path, I continue to engage in trainings, supervision and critical self-reflection for my personal and professional development. My calling has led me to this work, teaching tools that support the integration of mind, body and spirit as a compass and evolving guide to a life of purpose, peace and pleasure.
