Who We Are
Devon DeLeonardo
MS, 200 YTT, RCYT
Devon’s mission it to empower others to see the light in themselves and create their own magic by guiding them to find calm, strength, and resilience from within. She believes that everyone deserves to feel a sense of safety and belonging and uses self-regulation practices and nervous system toning as the perfect way for clients to find more balance and ease.
With a focus on children, teens, and their caregivers, Devon draws on her experiences as a former middle school science teacher and creating trauma sensitive spaces for her students. Her strengths in the classroom included recognizing the trauma response in others, teaching self-regulation tools, and working in conjunction with her students to develop personalized solutions to learning barriers.
Devon also is skilled in using the science of learning principles and the mind-body connection to guide educators and education leaders to create safe classroom and school environments. She is a former Mentor Behavior Coach for educators and she uses those tools to help educators become more confident in their ability to reach all students, increase their own level of self-regulation, and grow their toolbox of strategies for classroom and behavior management.
Devon holds certifications in trauma informed yoga, trauma informed children’s yoga, and advanced somatic healing. She has a masters degree in biology and certification in Administration I, is an Adjunct Instructor at McDaniel College, and a former member of the Carroll County Board of Education.
