Alicia Ferrero

Alicia Ferrero is a yoga teacher at Harbor, and her sessions can combine talking therapy with movement and breathing practices.

She works with adults, young people and children, adjusting her approach to suit each client’s age and stage of development. Her main interests are trauma and addiction recovery. 

She is also interested in how emotional and physical wellbeing affect each other, and in helping clients manage strong emotions.

Professional Background & Qualifications

Alicia holds a BA in Psychology from Webster University and an MA in International Development from Brunel University.

She is a certified life coach, having completed the CIJourney Life Coaching Certification with Jennifer Grace at the Center of Grace. She also holds leadership certification in Y12SR (Yoga of 12-Step Recovery), which brings yoga together with the 12-step approach to recovery, from Nikki Myers.

Healthcare Leadership & Experience

Because she practises both psychotherapy and yoga, Alicia can work with clients through conversation as well as through the body.

In her work on trauma and addiction, she helps clients notice how emotional distress can show up as tension in the body, and how both can feed the habits they want to change.

Approach to Care

Alicia’s approach is integrative, which means she draws on more than one method. Depending on the client, a session might focus on talking, or it might bring in movement and breathwork as well.

She aims to give clients a safe space where she treats mind and body together, so they can better understand their emotions and learn to manage them.
