Dr. Davina Kotulski is an incredibly gifted therapeutic listener and intuitive counselor. I've been to therapy a few times, and she has been the most incisive and gentle of them all. I started with her for her life coaching after I read her amazing and inspiring books It's Never Too Late to Be Yourself and The Manna Paradigm Shift. She should be on ALL THE TALK SHOWS!! She also has an established legacy as a freedom fighter, and her evolution and work only continues to grow. She is a wonderful example of how to listen to yourself. She wasted no time getting to the heart of things to help me for the life coaching sessions. We ended up going back to some things that were snagging me up before moving forward, even doing a past life regression session to clear things out. In short, she has all the skills, but the most important thing for me has been her inclusive spirituality at the center of her work. It just helps clear things more effectively to make more space for joy and manifesting. She's the real deal. If you are thinking of a life coach, she's the best of the best. read more

Thank you to Dr. Davina Kotulski for the past life regression I did not know I needed. I booked a session without much direction as to why I booked it or what I was looking for. It simply felt right, and I'm so glad I went with my intuition. read more

I definitely recommend Davina's services for her skills, personality, knowledge and professionalism. I had a great experience during my video session. She is a great listener and helped me experience multiple past lives in one session. She is also very intuitive and open minded! read more

This is a review I waited far too long to write. I guess I wanted to do Davina justice, and so I kept putting off giving her a positive review until I could craft the perfect one -- but then I heard her voice in my head encouraging me to just do my best and stop being so hard on myself! Davina is a great listener who helped me have clarity both in person and on the phone. She helped me think through practical next steps in my career and relationship without ever telling me what to do. I was unhappy in my non-monogamous relationship but she was never judgmental or jumping to conclusions that the lifestyle was the problem, which is hard to find in a coach or therapist. I liked her so much I got her to come lead a workshop at my staff retreat-- and everyone loved her! She brought the team so much closer together, so I really recommend her in that capacity as well. She incorporated mindfulness and helped our divided staff heal. I'm sorry I took so long to give Davina the praise she deserves, but I know she won't be mad, and that if I ever need her, I can call upon her practical wisdom again. I highly recommend her! read more

Davina was so easy to talk to and she made me feel extremely comfortable to completely open up and go deep. I am really grateful for the experience I had with her and I recommend to all. read more

I hired Davina as my life coach about 8 months ago. Davina asked questions that nobody else dared to ask me. She did more than just encourage me, she helped me take a long look at my life and every time I said "I can't do that" she showed me several ways that I could. I am a new person, inside and out. I have lost 146 pounds, I removed abusive people from my life, I applied to go back to school (after figuring out exactly what I wanted to do) and that's just the half of it. I am still coaching with Davina because I have a little way to go before I will be exactly where I want to be but it helps to have the support of someone who is bold and caring! Davina is ALWAYS there to listen and she will guide you through the darkest of times and rejoice with you at the finish line. Davina is tough, so if you're looking for someone who will "beat around the bush with you", this is not the coach for you. Be prepared to work hard as you step into your truth so that you can live a powerful life! That is why you should hire Davina Kotulski! read more

What an amazing journey it has been working with Davina as a writing coach. It started back in January 2013 and I've been writing feverishly since. I've attended in person writing workshops and live and recorded tele-seminars with Davina and both have been very productive! ANd in different ways. What has triggered inside of me (thanks to Davina) was a willingness to put "on paper" what I've only kept in short periods of blogs, loose tattered journals here and there and also in my head. The time spent with Davina has solidified my commitment to writing. She is experienced as a published author and shares her many insights with her students. I now feel like the title of a famous book... "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" read more

I love working with Davina. I was looking for a professional to help me through some major life transitions and I didn't know where to begin. Someone referred me to Davina, and I'm glad they did. Davina plays a unique role, often wearing different hats as needed. Sometimes life coach, sometimes therapist, always a good listener - Davina helped me tremendously. I would highly recommend Davina to you because, whatever you're seeking, Davina is a great ally to have on your team. read more

I am so happy to be working with Davina! She is very positive and approachable and anyone would feel comfortable to reveal the details of whatever might be gnawing at them. This is true because I really don't like opening up; maybe I should say didn't like. Davina's calm knowledge helps me to tackle obstacles I had written off as too difficult, too far out of my reach, or just issues that aren't pretty! Lol. It's felt so good and freeing to be able to identify what's holding me back and then change that. I have experienced therapists and specialists in the past but not like Davina. After our sessions I see a pathway with many directions and I feel inspired and like the fire has been lit under my butt! It's a true life path healing! I now feel more energized and generally optimistic. My personal relationships have grown and my professional life has exploded with potential. Do yourself a favor and check her out as i know my words can't do her services justice! I have recommended her to all my best friends too. read more

From the first session I had with Davina, I wanted more of her. She helped me see what was in the way of getting my writing project completed. After understanding what that was, I proceeded toward my goal with Davina by my side every step of the way. She has heart and understanding. She will meet you where you're at and in the most gentle way guide you toward where you want to be. Her relaxed style will help you forget your own anxiety about your project. Initially, I resisted the idea of getting coached by Davina because I didn't know how she could help me. I eventually gave in knowing I had nothing to lose. I gained more than I ever imagined. Call her and let her do her magic. read more

I am so grateful to have found Davina as my book coach. After taking a workshop with her at the Salt Studio, which helped clarify my goal to write a book this year, I decided to continue working with her privately to go deeper into what's blocked me from attaining this goal in the past. I have been impressed by her insights, which blend psychological, spiritual, and practical perspectives. She nailed it with book recommendations that she gave to me as "homework" and helped me develop new habits that have gotten my book out of the starting gate. She is warm and supportive, but she also has given me a (much-needed) firm nudge when I've gotten off track. Writing a book can be a lonely, daunting venture, and it really helps having Davina in my corner cheering me on. Highly recommended! read more

If you're feeling pulled to work with someone who really listens and takes the time to understand your unique goals and struggles, look no further. Davina is the most empathetic and intuitive person I've ever had the privilege to know. She sees the truth through the BS and isn't afraid to call me out on the lies I may be telling myself. And though we've dealt with things that can be difficult to talk through (i.e. that four letter word...FEAR) she has a lighthearted sense of humor that always puts me at ease. I first worked with Davina back in 2011 while I was in a very transitional period. As my counselor she helped me navigate through the negative beliefs and crutches that had been holding me back. My outlook truly transformed for the better after our time together and I'd often think back on our conversations if I ever started feeling those negative beliefs creeping up again. Fast forward to the present...a few months ago I felt called to make some big moves in my life and writing and Davina immediately came into my mind as the person I wanted to coach me through it. I just finished 10 sessions with her as a Life Coach and have already taken large steps toward pursuing my dreams thanks to her guidance. Invest in your growth and work with her if you can. What she's given me in return is priceless. read more

As a former high school athlete and now sports fan the word coach stood out to me in a more significant way than "therapist" or "counselor." the main thing I was struggling with when I began was finding the strength and motivation to change jobs and get my family to a better place financially. Davina was the perfect embodiment of what you would expect from a coach in helping me through that. She challenged and encouraged me while giving me the tools I needed to succeed. As I continued to work with Davina a few other things came up that I didn't plan or expect to work on and she helped with those as well. I was working on better financial stability so my partner and I could move to San Francisco but I had a terrible bridge phobia that made each and every trip to the city almost unbearable. Davina helped me through that in a way that only a true coach could with continued practice and motivation and by not letting me give up. These are just two examples of how Davina's remarkable life coaching skills have changed my life. I am however convinced by the work I have seen her do in my life and the lives of others that there is absolutely nothing that Davina can not help you not only get through but come out stronger on the other side. If you are trying to decide between therapy or coaching: Choose Coaching! If you are trying to decide which coach is right for you: Choose Davina! You won't regret it. read more

I have worked with Davina as a writing coach, and what I love most is that she brings so much more to the sessions than just great encouragement and technical writing skills. Her coaching is far more rich because of her training and experience as a psycologist and spiritual practitioner. Because of Davina, I'm breaking through, not only the resistance to writing my book, but also the barriers that have kept me from even believing that I had a book to write. So grateful for her coaching and her wisdom! read more

If there's anyone who knows what it takes to live an authentic life it is Davina! And I speak from knowing her not only from recently completing her Follow Your Courageous Heart class but also from admiring her bravery since we were teenagers in suburban high school. Davina is an inspired and brilliant activist, writer, and leader (that's the short list!)! If you're considering any of her services, don't wait!! She's a treasure in this life anyone can learn from. 5 Stars!! read more

Davina is amazing. I found her here on yelp. I met with her for approximately 1-2 months and had to stop to get EMDR specialist assistance. She's changed my life, helped me make huge discoveries and breakthroughs. I am growing in areas of my life I never thought I'd overcome. I hope to work with her again soon. You can tell she practices what she preaches. That is most comforting in someone you look to for help. Thank you, Davina! read more

Davina coached me through a major transitory period and not only helped me organize my writing/professional goals, but more importantly, helped me unpack the obstacles that were keeping me from making progress. The perspective I gained from our work together was invaluable, and I am so grateful to Davina for her ability to see, hear, and meet her clients right where they are to make forward movement. I can't recommend her enough! read more

Davina is absolutely wonderful. Inspiring, thoughtful, kind, funny, wise...everything you would hope for in a life coach. Among other things, she has a great knack for seeing and acknowledging the daily noise that can fill my brain upon waking and then helping me refocus my thoughts and energy on a positive and uplifting way of thought that's incredibly constructive in achieving my goals. And, while she is a coach, she is also a fantastic collaborative partner in the journey of self discovery. She pushes you without being pushy. I have worked with her off and on for over a year and will continue to do so. Davina is a wonderful spirit and I'm thankful for her wisdom, encouragement and kindness in my journey of personal and professional growth. read more

I had never had a coach before I started working with Davina, but she came highly recommended by a friend of mine and I was ready for a big life transition so I took the leap. Right away she made me feel encouraged, excited about my future, and hopeful that these big dreams I had could come to fruition. She's a great combination of nuts-and-bolts practical as well as deep, probing and insightful. She's helped me through many changes that have taken place, aways with compassion and insight, and has been a great support in helping me understand what my Next Steps might be. Highly recommend! read more

I've had both in-person and telephone past life regression sessions with Davina. Both were really helpful and I got a lot out of each of them. Davina is a very calm and caring person and her voice gently soothes you into the hypnotic state for the regression. She guides you through different stages of the lives to see what the lessons are and what information is useful to you in this life. It's an interesting experience and can be very healing. I'm looking forward to uncovering more past lives with Davina and more information that will help me to grow in this life. read more

Davina is an extremely talented writing and life coach. With her direction I have almost completed my first book. Without Davina's guidance and patient approach I never would have had the confidence in myself to cross the finish line. read more

What a gift Davina is! Davina is a grounded force who creates a safe, nurturing space in which it feels right to open up and find the roots and make the connections that healing requires. Her powerful prayers and meditations have helped me to be more at peace than I've ever been. We have enjoyed Davina's Meditation sessions at The Salt Studio over the past few years and her Past Life Regression sessions in the Salt Room are very special too, as the salt cave helps one to go deeper more quickly, and under Davina's instruction you are bound to discover some amazing soul information that will shed light on current life situations. read more

If you want to get things done and feel great about it, hire Davina. My experience with her was amazing. Not only did I accomplish things that I had avoided for, well, forever, I discovered strengths I didn't know I had and she helped move me to a much better, more motivated and authentic place. Plus, she's a lot of fun to work with! read more

I saw Davina between Jan-April 2014 as a coaching client and I've got to tell you Yelpers, she is PHENOMENAL!!! From the very beginning right up to the end, she was absolutely professional, kind, generous, understanding, funny, down to earth and immensely insightful. This woman has a gift. I can't put my finger on exactly what it is about her. Maybe it's her calm/zen presence or the way she makes you feel, so at peace, comfortable and at ease, that you just let whatever it is that's bothering you out. I can honestly say that I am absolutely indebted to her in helping me find peace and understanding with the situation I was going through at the time. Although her biggest impact, one of the greatest gifts anyone has ever given me, (for all you folks who are spiritual or question spirituality, listen up) was the moment she helped me achieve the true meaning of being one with one. I'll never ever ever ever forget it. We were in a coffee shop and despite all the noise in a typical coffee shop one hears, she was able to viscerally send me to a place where I had actually physically, mind, body and soul, became one with one- the universe, everything. That experience rocked me so hard, I had to stay seated for a while after our session ended to ground myself because I just couldn't believe what had just happened. It was nothing I had ever experienced before. That moment affected me in ways I can't explain. It was such an enlightening experience that left a huge impact on me and my life indefinitely. All I can say is, Davina, THANK YOU! Through you, I will always find solace in whatever adversity comes my way. That kind of peace and confidence is priceless. Follow all the other 5 star reviews. If you need someone to talk to, Davina is the person! read more

After having an initial consultation with Davina, I knew she would help immensely with my coming out process. I gained more confidence about who and what I am. She helped me overcome lots of the preconceptions I had about the entire coming out process. The tools I learned from her will continue to help me embrace the person that I am and who I can become. She entered my life at just the right moment for me to welcome the changes I was going through. She helped me succeed to be a more confident individual. read more

"Coaching with Davina Kotulski helped me immensely in both my professional and personal life. With Davina's supportive coaching techniques I improved my relationships with colleagues, created work/life balance, celebrated the joys in my life and was able to minimize challenges. I now love my job and have a wonderful relationship with my supervisor and feel appreciated for the contributions I make in my professional community. This has resulted in more free time to spend with my partner, as well as time to create and sell my art on the side. I highly recommend Davina Kotulski. Working with her was a transformative experience that helped me get my life back on track ." --Mandy Benson read more

Davina supported me through the most difficult transition in my life, coping with the death of my husband of 47 years. My husband, Stan, died just 2 days after this last Christmas and Davina was just beginning a "Transitions Group" in January for people facing transitions like retirement, divorce, death of a loved, relocation. Over the 7 weeks of the class, with Davina's guidance, I was able to begin the transition from being a partner in a loving relationship to being on my own. Davina gently helped me to discover who I am as an individual. Davina is so accepting that I always felt safe in discussing my innermost thoughts and feelings with her. I am forever grateful to Davina for the comfort I received from her and through the group and for helping me grow through my most painful life experience. read more
