This review is long over due. Rita is an absolute miracle worker! I went to District Hypnosis to…read morekick a 15+ year smoking habit. I had low expectations because I had tried to quit multiple times in a lot of different ways with no success. I remembered having a friend who said their mom quit with hypnosis and for as long as I had been trying to quit I felt like it was worth a try even if I was skeptical. What I could not have anticipated is how meeting Rita would change my life. By my second session I had quit smoking. Poof! It's a whole 7 months later at the time of this review and to this day I feel like it's a habit that I never had. I simply no longer identify with cigarettes, past or present. It doesn't even bother me to be around people who are smoking, which totally blows my mind. Being that I had quit smoking early in our sessions, Rita asked if there was anything else I wanted to work on with the sessions I had remaining. I mentioned that I was feeling a lot of stress and anxiety around my work and asked if that was something she could help with. Sure enough, Rita turned out to be better than any psychologist I have ever seen in helping me break the cycle of stress and negative thoughts. Further, she gave me the tools to calm my own mind instead of being dependent on therapy sessions or drugs forever. You can tell Rita really cares about the people she works with and wants nothing more than to see them succeed and live their happiest lives. Towards the end of my sessions Covid happened, forcing Rita and I to do my sessions virtually. To my surprise our virtual sessions worked just as well as our in person sessions. Although I did miss seeing her and hanging out in her really cool hypnosis room! All in all, I can't recommend Rita enough. If you have an issue that involves breaking some kind of bad habit or harmful cycle of thoughts or actions Rita is who you need to see. I recommend her to all my friends now and will likely go back to see her for some phobias that I have not addressed. If you're on the fence, you have nothing to lose except the things that are bothering you. Rita is 10000% worth the time and money commitment in exchange for the freedom you will feel. When I think about some of the biggest life changing milestones in my life, meeting Rita is right up there at the top.

Since working with David I've felt more balanced in my body and life, and have become more self assured. He's a very thoughtful and perceptive practitioner, and I was able to see results rather quickly. He also is a wealth of information and introduced me to resources that has been very important to me and my development. I highly recommend Life Forces!

In our initial call, David claimed one session could cure my trauma. Already a red flag…read more When I arrived at my appointment, David led me to an empty floor of the building and an empty office. I did not feel safe. The first half (yes half!) of the session was David patronizingly explaining physical and spiritual concepts without soliciting feedback. I know what a chakra is. I know that the human body can carry an electrical current. I couldn't get a word in edgewise to say that, or to disagree with some of his wilder claims. The energy healing itself wasn't helpful for me, which is fine - clearly we weren't exactly vibing. My real complaint there is that I told him "This isn't really working for me," and he gave me this smug look and said, "Oh it's working." He also left the room for the last five or so minutes of the session without saying anything. I'd look for energy healing elsewhere.

Ramzy changed my life…read more I came to Nova Hypnotherapy with a fear of flying and turbulence that had been holding me back for years. In just a few weeks, Ramzy gave me the tools and knowledge to not only conquer that fear, but to handle any fear that comes my way. But the impact went so far beyond flying. What started as a fix for turbulence anxiety turned into a breakthrough for my business. I now walk into presentations with a level of execution and self confidence I didn't have before, and it shows in how I deliver. The ripple effect has been incredible. I'm more conscious of my surroundings, my relationship at home is stronger, and something has genuinely unlocked in my brain that keeps me focused and moving on my mission every single day. If you're on the fence, stop overthinking it and book the session. This work is life changing.

I highly recommend Moksha Living.

The search for a good therapist who you jive with, takes insurance, and is also accepting new clients can be really demoralizing. It definitely was for me. I felt so fortunate when I found Huma Sikandar Fatakia, and I can't say enough good things about her. She is so understanding and has an almost uncanny ability to remember details I haven't spoken about in a while, and connect the dots to help me recognize patterns and opportunities in my life. She has also helped me incorporate some mindful practices in my life when things feel heavy... which I never thought I'd be able to do. When Huma went on maternity leave, there was a seamless transition to Alyssa McCall for that duration. I again felt really fortunate that they didn't leave me hanging and matched me with another provider. Alyssa was also great! It is hard switching from one provider to another, but Alyssa offered new perspective and some different tools that I've held onto since going back to Huma. Finally, Michell Stanley was able to accommodate my partner and me very quickly for sessions, and that has been a huge help. She is very good at what she does and very understanding. As the owner of the business, she's also easy to work with for any administrative needs. I feel so extremely lucky to have found Moksha Living when I did, before the pandemic, and to be able to continue my work with them in a safe way. During COVID-19, all sessions are remote via a secure platform.

I cannot recommend Michell and Moksha Living enough. My work with Michell was truly life-changing…read more Michell's approach is a unique combination of coaching and therapy, which helped me feel heard and understood, while also holding me accountable and giving me tools to work through a particularly challenging life event. Michell demonstrated the perfect amount of care and accountability, and balanced intellectual and emotional introspection. I truly feel like a better person after my work with her. I've tried a not-insignificant number of therapists in my life and Michell is above and beyond the best therapist I have ever worked with.

Hi my name is Smita C, but I used my grandmother's name for my Yelp account…read more A friend of mine recommended that I connect with Don (who he said was a "gift") after I told him that I had been struggling with various aspects of my life post-trauma. I did one session to start and then a package of sessions. I first want to say that Don has a very beautiful/peaceful/calm/healing energy and he genuinely cares and wants to help - while empowering you with tools to help yourself (he emphasizes that HE is not doing anything TO YOU which I loved because I have worked with various practitioners and different modalities that create the opposite context where their goal seems to be relying on them to feel good for perpetuity). As I just expressed to Don after we wrapped our final session of the package that this last session felt like this very powerful sum total culmination of all of the sessions before it which, in reflection, felt like seeds that were planted to eventually bloom. & I am mentioning that here so that - if you choose to work with Don - you are patient with the process because each person's experience will be relative to THEM & will depend on so many factors Including the severity of what brought them to seek hypnosis. For me personally... In 2012, I became something I never expected to become (a domestic violence survivor) and I lived through extreme nonstop trauma over seven months followed by 12 years of doing the deep (& often exhausting) healing work that would often make me "feel *good* temporarily" but nothing really ever lasted. As such, I so wish that I could have experienced what I did with Don far earlier in my healing journey, but I am so glad to have had the opportunity now. Don is absolutely a GIFT (I feel so deeply connected to my being one too) and I highly recommend him.

So grateful to Roanne for being my coach/guide in my first virtual 9D Breathwork Transformation…read moresession. I was concerned at first about the proper breathing techniques, lol. However, Roanne was such a loving, caring coach who provided clear instructions and made me feel comfortable and relaxed during the whole 80 min or so session of the "Letting go and moving on" theme that I signed up for. The session helped me release some painful things from the past by breathing them out, while inviting positive and good things by breathing them in. I especially felt the screaming therapies were very helpful. Deciding to go through the hard work and feel all the uncomfortable emotions and revisit painful memories in order to release them and eventually hope to overcome, was one of the best decisions I've made in a while to pursue a life full of love, joy, harmony and peace. I look forward to continuing this healing journey utilizing 9D Breathwork through Authenticure. Thank you so much Roanne!

Her Hypnobirthing training includes instruction on pregnancy, labor, delivery, and postpartum care. It is clear that Lindsey is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about her work. She provides research to back up her assertions and she shares her own birth stories, which are inspiring. In 2015, I contacted Lindsey again as I prepared for my 2nd daughter. I was so happy with Lindsey's advice and the way my birth story unfolded. I also contacted Lindsey for the birth of my 3rd baby, my son. Once again, Lindsey gave me sound advice and I followed it to the T! I was blessed to have a successful water birth at home. I KNOW it would not have been possible without Lindsey. I highly recommend her! Thank you so much Lindsey!!!!

My husband and I took a HypnoBirthing class and refresher. I also got a Reiki treatment and placenta encapsulation. Whatever service you decide to use, you will not be disappointed. Lindsey's professionalism and compassion are what you need. I was blown away by our virtual hypnotherapy. The amazing tools she gives to her client stay with you when you need them most. I would recommend her to anyone preparing for birth or going through anything where they need a little support. Stop scrolling through reviews of doulas and just contact Lindsey. She works with amazing people who will form an entire team to support you.
