Through talk therapy, EMDR work, and some DBT skills training, Ann played a pivotal role in helping me understand, accept, and eventually overcome many unhelpful thoughts & unwanted behaviors. I will always be grateful to her (& Elton) for all of the support and guidance she provided during a very rough patch in my life. I highly recommend Ann to anyone who may be overwhelmed or struggling right now!

Working with Keridwyn to address my lifelong fear of public speaking was genuinely transformative…read more In my leadership roles, speaking publicly is not optional, yet it has always triggered intense physiological dysregulation for me. Keridwyn provided practical, immediately applicable tools that helped me regain control of my body in high-pressure moments, which alone would have been invaluable. What set her apart, however, was the depth and rigor of her approach. She didn't treat my fear as a surface-level confidence issue; she approached it as a complex, layered pattern shaped over decades. With intellectual precision and care, she helped me understand the underlying drivers of my anxiety and systematically worked through them. No aspect was overlooked. The result was not just improved performance, but a meaningful rewiring of how I relate to public speaking altogether. I HIGHLY recommend her!

She has a very solid grounding in both the science and the art of hypnosis, communicates beautifully, and has skillful mastery of all her tools. I highly recommend anyone curious about hypnosis work with Keridwyn whether in person or on zoom.

I've known Sheri nearly 15 years and had the chance to see her in many different capacities. As a…read moretherapist, she does incredibly effective work with individuals and couples, but she's also great with groups. She continues to build a track record of success, which would allow her to start getting selective about new admissions, yet she continues to work with a wide variety of clients, from all walks and with many different problems. Sheri has designed a beautiful facility in downtown Seattle and it's my opinion she's likely to become increasingly difficult to see as time goes on and word of mouth spreads on her straight-talking approach. Although Sheri's technique is indeed very direct, it's non-threatening and feels very nurturing because she quickly establishes a rapport of trust with her clients, which lowers their inhibitions and encourages all parties to quickly place their cards on the table. As effective as Sheri is, she quickly determines if you have issues with which she can help or if there's a better way for you to get help - if so, she will point you in the right direction immediately.

She has many skills and interventions to offer individuals and I did not have to explain as much about myself as I have with other therapists to get to work. She is peaceful, centered and empathic.

I want to be very fair in this review…read more On a personal level, she is absolutely wonderful. She is kind, calm, professional, and genuinely cares about her clients. The sessions themselves were relaxing and thoughtfully guided, and I always felt supported and respected during our time together. However, I hired her specifically for weight loss, and unfortunately, I did not lose any weight despite committing significant time, effort, and money to the process. I truly wanted this to work -- but it simply did not produce results for me. I understand that hypnosis may work very well for some people. It just wasn't effective in my case, and I wish I had known sooner so I could have redirected my time and money elsewhere. If you're looking for a caring practitioner and are curious about hypnosis, she may be a good fit. If your primary goal is measurable weight loss, I would recommend going in with realistic expectations and understanding that results are not guaranteed.

Shalynn is extremely professional, articulate, and logical in her approach to working with the subconscious/conscious minds. She doesn't shroud hypnosis in mystery and strangeness, but rather explains it with impressive clarity. I'd recommend her to even the most rigid skeptic. After years and years of therapy, its refreshing to find something that produces real progress quickly, simply, and with ease.

In just a couple of sessions, I noticed a significant improvement in my sleep. Tracy's approach, while it may seem "alternative" to some, her work is very professional. She shared simple, strategies that made perfect sense and were easy to incorporate into my routine. If you're struggling with insomnia or other sleep challenges, I highly recommend Tracy Barrett Adams. Her expertise and compassionate approach truly made a difference in my life!

Tracy is a wise listener, she helped me understand myself and she always seems to cut right to the core even when I give her so much to work with. Tracy's hypnosis sessions are gorgeous. Through Tracy's intuitive guiding I have moved through fears, old patterns and habits and stuck places. When I started working with Tracy I was really bound up in some hopelessness for change. Now I feel so much power and possibility. I am so immensely grateful. Thank you Tracy for everything you are such a gift!!

Julie is a FANTASTIC therapist…read more When I came upon her website, I was going through a very difficult, confusing time in my life where everything was coming to a head and the realization that I really couldn't work through it alone was not an easy one to swallow. I had contacted a few other therapists via email and contact forms on the internet and not a single one replied. Even though I wanted and needed to see someone, I was terrified. When I tried calling around to find someone, I would freak out and couldn't hang up fast enough even though it was just voicemail. One office with a lot of therapists wanted to wait list me, but nobody else returned my calls. When I saw Julie's webpage and read a bit about her, I could feel the panic dissipate some and I had a strong feeling that she was the one I was meant to see - even though she's a 30 minute drive (generally 45 because of i5 traffic at the time I see her). Julie replied to my email in record time. From the greeting and very first sentence, my feeling was confirmed. I was immediately happy instead of freaked out that she had a flexible schedule with time slots available that fit for me. I guess I was a little surprised as well because in my email to her I gave 4-5 specific topic matters that I knew would be big points during therapy (when and IF I decided to see someone) and she wasn't phased by what I'm dealing with. You harbor secrets and shame for so long that when telling someone for the first time, or even just someone that didn't already know, makes you imagine what their reaction may be to this horrid information.. and of course, you always think the worst. We tend to feel like nobody really understands - even others that went through the same things. Julie was able to schedule me for an appt, that was not long after our initial contact, to do the free intake session. I was very pleased that the first session was free so that I could be sure before making a commitment both emotionally and monetarily. When I arrived for the intake, the anxiety had begun to build up inside of me again and it took a lot of reasoning with myself to even get out of the car. As soon as she said "hello", I immediately began to relax. She offered me water and had tissue within reach of the comfortable sofa I was sitting in. (I say 'in' rather than on because it is very comfortable and welcoming). The atmosphere was soothing; beautiful in an understated way, with a "homey" feel. I imagine psychologists are taught lessons pertaining specifically to ambiance and that what Julie has put together is what others strive for. Fortunately, though; it all feels as though it came natural to her.. like she didn't have to TRY. In the past, I had seen two other therapists for short periods of time - one had over-the-top, blatantly expensive decor with gold accents and a hauty feel (he also wore a lot of bright yellow gold.. lol); the other was a small room in a converted basement that you went down a narrow set of stairs to get to with little more than a stiff, old antique chair and dusty books where the ceiling was too short for your average sized male and there was no door. Julie's office is just right, with unobtrusive bits of art and natural beauty that bring subtle relaxation. (IOW - Ya done good, Julie! Hahaa..) She is a great listener and has an amazing talent for remembering what you said 10 minutes ago, or even in sessions past, and connecting it will something you've said in the now. She doesn't do that dry, bored, not-sure-what-to-say or make-you-come-to-the-conclusion-yourself "why don't you tell me?"/"is that what YOU think?" bit EVERY TIME. She encourages, listens, reminds and helps me through things. She actually works for her money (which seems rare in any field these days), but it has never come across to me as 'work' for her at all. Sessions with Julie are like a long talk with a friend that actually cares what you have to say and how you're doing rather than perching in wait for her turn to talk. I never feel rushed and I always leave Julie's office feeling like we've made progress. She is flexible and easy-going, pleasant and intuitive, with a good sense of humor, great use of words, is insightful and wise beyond her years. I would proudly and happily *highly* recommend Julie Holt to anyone in search of a therapist. This isn't just a job, or even just a career, to her - its a calling, and I'm glad she followed her heart. Thanks, Julie. :) And I hope your Christmas is beautiful and the New Year bring you abundant amounts of joy and fulfillment. God Bless.
