About Anthony:

"I went to a school in Burlington, Vermont called Dual Divinity school of massage.

People describe me as kind, caring, and have a calming presence.

I love to create! Music, crochet, leatherworking, woodworking (in the future), and whatever form of creating I learn about next.
I aim to create a place where you feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed.

I have a wide variety of work experiences in many different fields."

Mind Body Soul

🌟We’re thrilled to introduce another one of our amazing Behavior Technicians here at Chockstone!🌟

A proud Vermont native and lifelong learner, she brings an incredibly rich and diverse background to our team. After earning her B.A. in Interdisciplinary Studies in 2011—with focuses in business and Spanish—she went on to spend over 12 years studying holistic health, including massage therapy, energy work, and yoga instruction.

Her professional journey has been just as well-rounded: she’s worked in early childhood education as a Pre-K teacher, home health and recovery services, respite and foster care, and as a business owner and long-time special needs respite provider through ARIS for more than 15 years.

Her passion for mental health and the mind-body-soul connection naturally led her to the field of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). She loves how ABA supports growth and positive change in all areas of life—not just for individuals on the autism spectrum.

Now approaching her first year as a BT, she finds deep fulfillment in seeing data-driven progress and daily moments of growth with her clients. She says:

“It’s fun, challenging, and inspiring to see change unfold through data and day-to-day experiences. I love the value of change and goal-setting that this work provides.”

She adds that being part of a compassionate team that practices ABA the right way—with care, dedication, and integrity—makes her proud to call Chockstone home. 💙

✨ We are so happy to have her as part of our team because her holistic perspective, deep compassion, and commitment to lifelong learning perfectly align with Chockstone’s mission of providing empathetic, evidence-based, and person-centered care. Her experience across so many helping professions adds such richness to our work and inspires us all!

Please join us in giving Abby a warm welcome!

Our Story

Studio Gratitude relocated to Manchester Center, VT in 2017 and is now owned and operated by Abby Skidmore :) Come in for a relaxing massage or reiki treatment at this cozy, private location. Contact me for private or small group yoga classes.

Bio:

Abby is a Bennington, VT native. After high school she went on to college to receive her Bachelor's Degree in Interdisciplinary Studies from Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts in 2011. She studied Business and Spanish. After taking some time to travel Abby came home to start massage school at the Pyramid Holistic Wellness Center in Rutland, VT in 2012. There she was attuned to Reiki and her whole world opened up. She became a certified massage therapist (CMT) by the end of 2014. Abby completed a 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training at Heart of the Village in Manchester, VT and was certified to teach in 2017. From there she went on to study Shamanism in Pownal, VT and is continuing her apprenticeship at The Roost. Abby has experience working at daycares with children, in nursing homes with elderly, doing respite care for people with special needs and trauma. She uses this experience and knowledge to create a safe and comfortable space for healing for her clients. She may be called a "healer" but believes one simply helps open the window of opportunity for her clients to do their own personal healing. In early 2019, Abby became a Reiki Master/Teacher and is currently teaching classes and workshops in Bennington and Manchester VT.
