Siri Arti. Registered Therapist Trauma-Informed Therapist | Integrating Psychotherapy, Physiology & Yoga Therapy to restore wellness, regulation and connection. As a therapist, body worker, yoga trainer and nature lover, I have a deep interest in how we connect in community and live well and long. Working across a colourful spectrum of teaching, training, mentoring and therapy, my work keeps me stimulated, curious and switched on. With thirty years of experience working with young people in education and wellness, Siri has dedicated recent years to developing a School of Elemental Embodiment: Young + Wise. Her mission is to help others discover a deeper sense of self and belonging, something she believes is lacking in the modern world.

Being in the body is essential for wellness. My specialism is being well versed at guiding people to this place, where body awareness becomes the norm and regulation skills a guiding light for many. The three anchors in my work are Embodiment; Empowerment & Education. My theoretical approaches are holistic. I integrate various perspectives to support wholeness: Yoga Philosophy: Combines ethical guidelines, postures, breath control, and meditation. Holistic View: Addresses body, mind, and spirit, selecting practices to restore balance across interconnected layers. Biomedical Perspective: Applies anatomy, physiology, and medical science with a focus on the nervous, cardiovascular, and respiratory systems. Psychological Approach: Incorporates mindfulness for stress relief and somatic experiencing to release trauma. Cognitive-behavioral techniques help modify unhelpful thought patterns. Energy Work: Uses breath and movement to balance physical and emotional health. Client-Centered Approach: Tailors practices to individual needs and goals.

Siri works with physical, mental and emotional challenges in a client centred and compassionate way. As well as providing healing opportunities through sessions and practices, she educates and informs her clients to empower them to take responsibility for their wellness, where possible. Integrative yoga therapy combines psychotherapy, body work and mindfulness practices as viewed from an in-depth neuro-scientific (mind) and physiological (body) perspective. This holistic therapy views the whole person, systematically considering the body, the mind and social factors, and their interactions to understand health, illness and recovery for the individual. Yoga therapy is an effective way to find balance in both the mind and the body, and through balance, restore wellness. Siri has a unique and inspired way of meeting the individual to tailor make sessions that are personal and effective and bring about transformation. Areas of experience: Healing from trauma Stress management Depression & anxiety Grief & loss Burn out recovery Suicide prevention Pain management Sickness & recovery Inspired by nature, she spends time wandering the woods and beaches with Lyra, her dog. She loves swimming, walking, moving, learning and contemplating life. She is also a seeker of AWE and when not in nature hunting for this, she has her head in research papers and books.
