Umā Jolicoeur

Umā Jolicoeur is a Certified Ayurvedic Practitioner with over a decade of clinical experience in holistic health and integrative care. After graduating from the Ayurvedic Institute’s two program in 2014, she served as a clinic supervisor and faculty member until 2019 —assisting Dr. Vasant Lad in his classes and seminars while developing and teaching her own courses in Ayurvedic nutrition, lifestyle, herbalism, pulse assessment, and marma therapy.

Umā’s work is also informed by certifications as a Reiki II Therapist (2010), End-of-Life Care Doula (2019), and through an internship with ethnobotanist and clinical herbalist William Siff, L.Ac. (2011). Beyond her clinical practice, she and her partner are building an all-natural earthbag home in Colorado, guided by the same principles of sustainability, simplicity and authenticity that inspire her Ayurvedic teachings.

Rooted in her direct training with Dr. Lad, Uma’s compassionate, lineage-based approach honors classical Ayurvedic principles while supporting healing, resilience, and embodied living at every stage of life. She will begin offering online Ayurvedic consultations and in-person community workshops at our clinic in the spring of 2026.
