Nicole Yakovich, MS, LAPC, RYT® 200
Partially Trained EMDR Therapist
Trauma-focused Yoga & Meditation Teacher
Licensed Associate Professional Counselor
As not only a Registered Yoga Teacher but also a Professional Counselor, Nicole has a unique skillset as a dedicated, trauma-focused Holistic Healer. Having completed a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology and the foundational 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training, she has also completed additional training in trauma-informed yoga practices. These trainings allow her to offer asana practices, breathwork, Yoga Nidra, and meditation, which also are threaded into all of her therapeutic work at Favored Wellness.
With close to a decade of experience teaching veterans, Nicole emphasizes the mind-body connection and somatic experiences in striving to create a space where clients to feel safe enough to do deep, meaningful work. As a lifelong student, she continually deepens her knowledge to provide quality holistic practices that foster relaxation, resilience, and inner peace. She offers both individual sessions and group workshops, which can be stand-alone or integrated as adjunctive modalities to support one's psychotherapy goals.
With all of this, she is able to provide a platform unlike those singularly trained as counselors and yoga teachers. Her scope of practice far surpasses those yoga teachers without graduate degrees, where her education and experience organically complement how she approaches affecting change and whole-person healing with her clients.
Denise Lueck, LMT
Licensed Massage Therapist
Reiki Practitioner
Denise has been a Licensed Massage Therapist for over 20 years. After earning a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology at Point Park College, she attended the Pittsburgh School of Massage Therapy.
Denise is a trauma-informed, trauma-focused holistic practitioner who's specialties include Swedish and Deep Tissue Massage, Fertility Massage, Pregnancy and Postnatal Massage, and Reiki.

Denise’s approach is health-minded, spiritual and holistic, that is not just physically supportive, but can also be an excellent compliment to psychotherapy, if the client is partaking in therapy. Each massage is customized to each client's needs to help them leave feeling relaxed, revived and rejuvenated.
