Hello, I'm Marina James

I'm a registered Yoga Therapist and Yoga Teacher with Yoga Australia, and a practitioner of Lifestyle Medicine (with membership of the Australasian Society for Lifestyle Medicine). I am also a Counsellor.

I have worked in mental health, yoga and wellbeing for over 20 years.

When I completed my initial 350 hours of yoga teacher training I saw the potential for blending yoga with psychology, counselling and psychotherapy. Whist the disciplines may seem different on the surface, I have discovered that they are interconnected at heart. As I have developed personally and professionally blending yoga and Western mental health modalities has become a core part of what I offer to clients.

I hold qualifications in psychology, yoga and yoga therapy. I have training in counselling and psychotherapy.
