ABOUT

“Perhaps the biggest tragedy of our lives is that freedom is possible, yet we can pass our years trapped in the same old patterns.”

TARA BRACH

“Fearlessly accept the reality; then fearlessly set about transforming what needs to change.”

ELANA BROWER

"Do whatever brings you to life, then. Follow your own fascinations, obsessions, and compulsions. Trust them. Create whatever causes a revolution in your heart.”

ELIZABETH GILBERT

I'M TERTIA

I bring people from 'just getting through the day' to intentionally choosing their experience and actively co-creating their life. Authentic joy--the kind of joy that feels like hot cocoa and a soft blanket by the fire in a rain storm--arrives in your bones when you align your daily choices with your core values. I'll take your hand as you step into the full expression of who you are.

MY STORY

My favorite days are simple ones — exploring nature with my son, baking sourdough bread, and having an impromptu dance party in the kitchen. I live in Denver, Colorado with my husband, our three-year-old son, our nine-year-old dog, and our twenty-something-year-old cat.

My path into this work began nearly twenty years ago, when I walked into my first yoga class. At the time, I was in a dark and uncertain place — struggling with depression, anxiety, disordered eating, self-harm, and borderline personality disorder. I wasn’t looking for transformation, only a gentle way to move my body. But that small studio — with its dim lights, soft ambient music, and mirrorless walls — became my sanctuary. It offered me something I hadn’t yet experienced: stillness, self-compassion, and the quiet possibility of healing.

Those classes introduced me to mindfulness, meditation, breathwork, and somatic awareness — practices that became the foundation of my own healing and, eventually, my life’s work.

Several years later, I completed my first yoga teacher training and began sharing these practices with others. Over time, my work expanded as I became a licensed massage therapist, reiki practitioner, craniosacral practitioner, somatic mindfulness teacher, and embodiment mentor. I’ve had the privilege of walking beside clients and students as they integrate trauma, move through grief, rediscover joy, and build lives rooted in alignment and authenticity.

My work has evolved into a synthesis of all I’ve learned — and continue to learn — about the body’s innate wisdom and the profound capacity we each hold to heal.

I’m deeply grateful to share this work with you, and to walk beside you as you reconnect with your power and remember who you’ve always been.

"Working with Tertia has enabled me to step outside of the trance of daily business, live in embodied presence, and find ease through life's changes."

"Tertia is my lighthouse--her work guides me back into conversation with my body, with my innate wisdom, with my guides. The self-knowing and self-trust I have rediscovered through working with her has been invaluable."
