Alison Dyer

Alison’s passion for helping others comes from her own journey towards wholeness and healing. She draws from her own expensive experiences of healing from trauma to assist others. Alison also lives with chronic hip pain. It was her pain that led her to Angelie in the hopes that she could further rehab her hip. After several sessions it became apparent that her hip wasn’t improving. Alison then shared her story of abuse with Angelie and of her journey with her Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapist that the conversation changed and the real work began. With IFS came the understanding that like the body is one and made up of many parts, so is the mind. After several years Alison was able to provide healing those parts of her that held pain and trauma in her body and mind.

Alison is a level 3 trained certified IFS practitioner. She see clients individually as well as leads groups using IFS.

Amanda Johnson

Mandy Johnson has worked and taught in the fitness industry since she was 18 and has worked in healthcare as a Doctor of Physical Therapist for the past 10 years. She has progressively tired of waiting for the medical community to start prioritizing well-care instead of sick care. She has seen patients, clients, and friends struggle with prioritizing their health and wellness because of getting overwhelmed with the whirlwind of life.

Mandy wants to give her patients and clients tools for more than “just today” and more than “just do this exercise.” She wants her patients to grow and live into their health potential, which requires more than exercise. She assists her clients and patients protect their happiness and well-being by clarifying what wellness looks and feels like using a customized internal and external action plan. 

Mandy has pursued additional coursework toward practicing as a board-certified functional medicine provider, which is a method of evaluating the patient as a whole instead of just the one thing bothering them.  When Mandy provides more than is typical of a Physical Therapist or fitness instructor, she gets a spark of joy as she is helping people work through lifestyle changes and living into her calling.
