​
After 20 years, LV's career as a maternal & mental health professional with a special focus on integrative therapies for trauma recovery led to an exploration of psychedelic breathwork. Her decades of supporting women during childbirth ensured she was already intimate with the power of breath. This began her calling as an advocate for recovery.
​
LV learned to honour the wisdom of the human body, the transformative power of birth, and the formative imprints of transitional experiences on identity. There, LV learned to listen, to witness, to dance with change, and to hold sacred and intimate space for others.
The potency of her personal experience with psychedelic breathwork was pivotal, both personally and professionally.
​
Currently, LV combines respiratory science with robust explorations of breath practices to measure their impact on presence and performance. In addition to teaching her own courses, LV is on faculty at The Professional School of Behavioral Health Sciences and previously served on the faculty at Numa Somatics.
LV studied dance for for a decade, and then taught creative/interpretive dance and ballet. Dance was her first experience with bodily autonomy, movement, and therapy. She used to dance as a child to process grief, to find comfort, and to recreate safety in her body.
​
LV inspires people to create and sustain individual and community wellness, one breath at a time.​​​
