Kendall Wood

C-IAYT & AMFT

Yoga Therapist & MFT-Associate

I’m Kendall and it’s my passion to assure that you feel supported along your healing journey. You may want to learn how to manage stress, anxiety, or chronic pain. Or perhaps you hope to improve mobility or quality of sleep. I'm here to help!

I specialize in yoga therapy for managing stress, alleviating chronic pain, and improving your quality of life. Offering private sessions, group classes, and events, I’m here to provide a holistic approach to healing your mind and body.

I’m a 500hr E-RYT and Certified Yoga Therapist. I have taught over 3000 yoga sessions and have completed over 1000 hours of training in my field.

In addition to my private yoga therapy practice, I work for the CAL Fire Training Center in Riverside, CA teaching about yoga and wellness for firefighters. I also host wellness and stress relief presentations for first responder, military and corporate organizations around the country and online.

I am available for corporate events, first responder & peer support trainings,retreats & more.

I am currently entering a new career as an Associate Marriage & Family Therapist. I received my Master’s in Counseling Psychology from National University in 2026. I will be starting work as an A-MFT soon and will update my place of work at that time. Please note that yoga therapy is NOT synonymous with psychotherapy and these offering are separate. To help understand the differences in my offerings I’ve created this page for you to review! My skills and training inevitably inform each modality to some degree but in Yoga Therapy sessions I do not diagnose or pathologize symptoms or work with insurance companies.
