Hi, I’m Becca Odom.


I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Registered Yoga Teacher with over a decade of experience in the mental health and wellness field.

I specialize in combining Somatic Approaches with EMDR for trauma recovery. I primarily work with women who have experienced trauma, chronic stress, and anxiety.

My passion is to empower others to heal themselves and I specialize in anxiety, trauma recovery, and stress management. 

I have been offering trainings on Yoga for Trauma and Resiliency nationally for the last 7 years and am passionate about supporting professionals to bring more trauma-informed tools into their clinical practice as well as for their own self-care to prevent burnout. 

I am trained in EMDR, Community Resiliency Model (CRM), Mindful Schools, Trauma-Focused Equine Assisted Psychotherapy, and have my 200-hour yoga teacher training certification. 

I love teaching and am so excited to share this course with our community!
