Welcome to Chara Yoga and Wellness Counseling
At Chara we believe healing begins the moment you feel truly seen.  Our trauma informed counseling and restorative retreats offer women, teens, and couples a compassionate space to grow, release, and rediscover joy.

Our mission is in our name

 Chara is Greek for Joy and Light ​​

"For when we bring light to another human heart, we have brought kindness in serving God who loves us "

~ Helen Steiner Rice​​

"Joy often follows trials, symbolized by light breaking through the darkness of night"

- Psalm 30:5

Rainbow Amid Clouds

"If I had to summarize the experience in a word it would be authentic. The way you showed up as your most authentic self gave us all such permission to be ourselves and promote grace and gratitude within ourselves."
