About Jodi

Jodi Ihas RSW, RP (Qualifying), E-RYT 200

Outside of my role as a therapist, my most cherished and rewarding role is being a mom to my three young adult children. I find joy and balance through yoga, spending time outdoors in my yard and gardens, or exploring nature. Water is my ultimate place of relaxation—you can often find me in our beautiful local lakes, enjoying my pool, or unwinding in the tub. I also love taking on home renovation projects and creating spaces that feel welcoming and full of life. I’m passionate about lifelong learning, whether it’s taking a new course or diving into a good book to explore fresh ideas and perspectives. When it’s time to relax, I’m usually snuggled up with my three cats, who are always close by to share their warmth and purrs.
