Duffy is a graduate of the University of Vermont (1988). Duffy was certified as a Rolfer and Rolfing® Movement practitioner in 1995 and received her advanced certification in 2002. In addition, she has studied the fascial systems of the viscera (organs) and the cranium in order to include these structures in her work. This allows her to work sensitively with the body's nervous system to allow this work to permeate deeply and to be thereby integrated into everyday life. She is also trained in SourcePoint Therapy, which facilitates all her work. SourcePoint helps by integrating the work very quickly,enabling greater function with every intervention.

Duffy has recently returned to the state of Vermont, where she lives with her husband, Phil and son, Felix. Phil and Felix are both native Vermonters. Duffy and Phil enjoy skiing, hiking and yoga. They are guardians of a labrador mix, Magellan, and a tortoise shell cat, Rumi.
