Fannie (she/her/hers)
Fannie graduated from the University of South Carolina with a BA in Theatre in 2001. While pursuing a career in performance, she discovered yoga and meditation and became a certified yoga teacher in 2009. She has been teaching yoga and meditation for 14 years, and holds advanced certificates in yoga, meditation, and relaxation techniques. This work led her to pursue a Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy.
First and foremost, Fannie would like to welcome all clients just as they are. With a deep appreciation for the human soul, she relies on her core values of connection and authenticity to meet people where they are in their personal process of evolution and change. As a student therapist at the Olson Clinic, Fannie hopes to integrate meditation, yoga, and spirituality for those who may be interested, as well as creative exploration. She aims to empower clients to explore their unused potential and support them as they discover their capacity to withstand and accept both the beauty and uncertainty in all aspects of life.
When not working and studying as a graduate student, Fannie enjoys eating and serving delicious food, hanging with her 3 kids and husband, teaching and lying down!
