Anissa's life has been intertwined with PTSD/Trauma and the
military. Not only is she the daughter of a Vietnam Veteran, but
she was also married to an active duty member (and Iraq/Afghanistan
Veteran) for over 20 years. For 3 years, she volunteered at the
Warrior Transition Battalion at Fort Riley, Kansas providing yoga
therapy, meditation, and other holistic treatments to the soldiers,
family members, and staff. After seeing others struggle, and having
her own personal struggles with trauma/PTSD, she was inspired to
create the Trauma Healing Yoga Therapy Program.
As a Yoga Therapist and founder of the Trauma Healing Yoga
Therapy Program, she guides others in the use of effective,
science-based yoga therapy and other holistic techniques for the
management/healing of symptoms relating to PTSD and trauma for
people who want to control their PTSD - not allow it to control
them.
Recently, she focuses her efforts on working with women who
have been sexually traumatized, to help them heal their PTSD (and
other trauma-related issues) with yoga therapy. As a 2x rape
survivor, she intimately understands the needs these women face and
helps them navigate their healing journeys.
Anissa Hudak earned her 200 RYT, 500 RYT and was awarded her
Certification in Yoga Therapy from the International Association of
Yoga Therapy. Additionally, she completed a 120 Hour YogaFit
Warriors training and the MBSR (Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction)
online course through the Center for Mindfulness in Medicine,
Health Care, and Society at the University of Massachusetts Medical
School. Currently a student with the Phoenix Rising School of Yoga
Therapy, she is learning another approach to utilizing yoga to help
release trauma from the body. She works with people with all types
of physical conditions but specializes in working with those
suffering from PTSD, TBI’s and all trauma-related issues and have
