# Cathy Underwood Yoga
Cathy Underwood is an award-winning somatic therapist and movement specialist based in Enfield, offering trauma-informed yoga and movement therapy for individuals and organisations across North London and beyond. With over 30 years' experience in health and wellbeing, she specialises in mind-body solutions for chronic stress-related conditions including anxiety, depression, PTSD, autism, ADHD and sensory processing difficulties.
Her practice operates across two distinct areas. Community-facing work includes weekly mood-boosting classes, private sessions and wellness retreats designed to help individuals reset and reconnect with their nervous systems. Simultaneously, she provides specialist consultancy and training to charitable organisations, SEN schools and clinical environments—including The North London Priory Hospital and Ambitious about Autism—delivering yoga and movement therapy to vulnerable patients, pupils and staff.
What sets Cathy apart is her trauma-informed, holistic methodology. Her sessions integrate somatic yoga, breathwork, mindfulness, Yoga Nidra and reflective practices to create what clients describe as "instantly safe, inclusive and nurturing" spaces. Rather than generic fitness instruction, she holds evidence-based expertise in complex mental health conditions, having trained through the prestigious Minded Institute for Yoga Therapy and gained accreditation with the Yoga in Healthcare Alliance and Yoga Alliance as a Senior Professional.
Her credentials include Female Entrepreneur of the Year and the Barclays Innovative Business of the Year award, reflecting both her clinical expertise and entrepreneurial impact in making therapeutic movement accessible to underserved communities.
