Ivy Ingram, MA, AP, is an Ayurveda Practitioner, Yoga teacher, and Veda Recitation teacher. With a master’s degree in Counseling Psychology, she has been helping clients experience deeper health and healing for over 18 years.

Her work with clients is based on an Ayurveda framework and incorporates psychology, somatics, herbalism, yoga postures and breathing practice, mindfulness, and presence-based coaching. She works with clients through online programs, individual consultations, seasonal cleanses and educational courses to help them find comfort in their bodies and ease in their life.

Ivy is a former faculty member of the Ayurvedic Institute in New Mexico under the direction of the world-renowned Dr. Vasant Lad. She received her Ayurveda Practitioner certification from Dr. Lad in 2010, and served on his faculty 2014-2016.

She also studied Ayurveda in southern India for 5 months in 2011 with her primary teacher there, Dr. A.R. Ramadas of Vaidyagrama Ayurveda Healing Village. She returns to India nearly every year for further training or treatment. She also participated in several mentorships and trainings with noted Ayurveda teacher Dr. Claudia Welch.

Ivy has drawn deeply on the wisdom of Ayurveda and Yoga in her own ongoing healing from an autoimmune hyperthyroid condition. This exploration, including 3 months of treatment in India, continues to deepen her understanding of what healing means and how to support the inherent self-healing ability of the body-mind to restore balance.

A certified advanced yoga teacher, Ivy began teaching yoga in 2002 after completing two yoga teacher trainings, one with Integrative Yoga Therapy and one with Kripalu Yoga Center. She then completed a 300-hour advanced teacher training in Ayuryoga at the Ayurvedic Institute, integrating the principles of Ayurveda and Yoga as healing practices. Ivy has taught yoga to patients in a cancer treatment center, the clinical staff at a Harvard teaching hospital, and inmates in the Oregon and Texas prison systems.

She has also completed teacher training in Veda Recitation with Shantala Sriramaiah of Veda Studies in the Krishna Yajur Veda tradition, Mysore sampradaya. 

Ivy has a master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Boston College, and a bachelor’s degree in English from Brown University. She holds a life-long commitment to helping people find their unique path to health, fulfillment and joy.
