Alternative Healing
After years of running a personal training business in Malibu and playing basketball in Europe, Kyle wanted to take his interests in fitness and health into a deeper level of care. Having spent so much time working with the functionality of the body, Eastern Medicine, and it's focus on the root of the cause of illness, was a natural fit. Today, Kyle is still trying to integrate the best known modalities of care with an approach rooted in getting to the bottom of medical issues.

Ellie Perry
APCC
Therapy
Ellie has lived in Lake Tahoe for the past 16 years and has fallen in love with both the community and the environment. It was in her relationship to her body and the mountains where she began her own personal healing journey. After teaching yoga for several years, she saw the importance of the mind-body connection and pursued a Masters in Clinical Counseling in a Mindfulness Based Transpersonal Counseling program. She believes that true healing comes from a holistic approach and loves working with somatic, mindfulness, and experiential modalities. She specializes in both acute and complex trauma, grief, anxiety, and depression, but adopts a non-pathologizing lens. Ellie works with individuals in life stages from teens and beyond, as well as couples. She accepts Medi-Cal and cash-pay clients, but can also provide a superbill to submit to some insurances as an out-of-network provider.
