I am Tonisha Cohen-King, the heart and soul behind Influence Yoga & Wellness Therapy. As a licensed clinical social worker and certified yoga and meditation instructor, I bring a unique blend of therapeutic expertise and yoga proficiency to my practice. My journey into yoga began in 2012 after suffering a back injury, which led me to discover the profound benefits of yoga for both physical and mental health.

In 2019, I deepened my practice by attending a workshop on yoga for anxiety and depression, which inspired me to pursue a 200-hour yoga teacher training at Jiiva Yoga, Meditation and Wellness Center under the guidance of Berta Prevosti. Despite the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and social unrest, my commitment to my practice and community only grew stronger.

With over eight years of experience as a therapist and four years as a yoga instructor, I specialize in trauma-informed practices and holistic treatment tools. I am passionate about bringing yoga services and healing practices to marginalized communities. My dedication to accessibility and inclusivity ensures that everyone can benefit from my services, regardless of their background or experience level.

My vision for Influence Yoga & Wellness Therapy is to create a space where individuals can access the healing power of yoga and therapy. My services include virtual yoga classes, mobile yoga sessions, 1:1 private sessions, private group sessions, and specialized therapeutic yoga aimed at improving mental health. Join me on a journey towards wellness and discover the transformative impact of yoga and therapy.
