YOGA FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH NEUROLOGICAL AND CHRONIC CONDITIONS
Danielle specializes in individualized yoga, breathing, and relaxation for individuals with neurological and chronic conditions including but not limited to the following:
Functional Neurological Disorder
Parkinson’s Disease
Chronic pain
Anxiety and Depression
Sessions are 30- or 45-minute individualized yoga sessions completely adapted to each person’s needs. In combining movement and breath, we hope to deepen awareness of and connection to our body/somatic selves and target the autonomic nervous system. Generally, sessions will combine breathing, postures (seated and standing), and mindfulness mediation. However, each session is tailored to you, which may be different from day to day.
Below are some examples of what you might expect from a yoga session.

Danielle is also a founding member of the FND Clinic NYC, a rehabilitative space that is accessible to and affirming of all individuals with Functional Movement Disorder. We recognize that rehabilitation begins by respecting each person holistically; therefore, we validate the experience of all individuals seeking care in the clinic without judgement. We strive to create a safe space for healing and recovery, where people with FMD can readily seek affirming care and treatment without delay in diagnosis. The clinic is made up of the following group of interdisciplinary providers who all specialize in working with people with Functional Neurological Disorder and are actively conducting research to enhance treatment efficacy.
