I have been in long term counseling with Mari Craig for a number of years. I found her by referral…read morefrom the Employee Assistance Program (EAP) of the U.S. Postal Service and I initially sought her help with job stress and depression. What I like most about her sessions is her wholly supportive attitude towards the life decisions I've made that are mentally healthy for me while gently encouraging me to make beneficial behavioral, attitudinal, and relationship changes if needed. Her treatment process is very planful and well organized, and uses suggestions for methods of relaxation, exercise, and ways to gain insight and appreciation for positive thinking. She has authored a book which serves as a very useful supplement to her treatment process. I want to stress that I have a degree in Psychology and a background of 7 years as Counseling Supervisor in residential treatment centers for emotionally disturbed children and teenagers so I have a thorough understanding of how useful it is to seek professional help when having difficulty coping with life's challenges either personal, behavioral, or employment. Ms. Craig's counseling techniques are very creative and goal oriented and my overall experience with her sessions has been very positive and useful.

The end of July 2022, I was…read moreat a Fair and Vivian's husband stopped me and said I had a lot of energy coming off me and that his wife does readings. I said heck why not, you only live once. I asked how much it was and she said $50. Thought it was way too much, but gave it a go. Then she tells me I need to pay another $150 and that she would call me the very next night at 9:00pm and I would not have to pay anymore and she would help me heal. I'm not a gullible person and I don't trust people, but I trusted her. Well, as you can guess, she didn't call the next night. No call, no text, no nothing. Just ghosted me. I gave her the benefit of the doubt and time went on and I started to text and call with no answer. Then over a month later she calls and says she had Covid. So I apologized that I jumped the gun and was upset that she ghosted me. She then said she would call me the next day to reschedule. Never called. Then a week ago, she calls and wants to talk. I was thankful that my $200 was going to go to something. Well, she couldn't talk then, but she had to talk later. I said that I would have my kids later and it would be chaotic, but I agreed. She then doesn't call, so I call her at our time we agreed on. I actually got her. We start to talk. She hangs up and disappears for an hour. Then calls back and says her phone died, which I understood, but an hour went by and I'm a single mom of three kids and my kids were getting rowdy because it was dinner time and I told her I would have to reschedule because I already wasted an hour waiting on her. She then says she will call the next day between 9 am and 930 am. You know, whoever is reading this could be a psychic and tell me what they "see" happens next. Yes, she did not call. She did not text. She still has not called. And she still has not texted back. I want my $150 back. You can keep the $50 for the "reading". I can give you my Zelle or I will be disputing it with my bank and filing a claim. I'm a single mom of three and I'm very understanding, but you stole $150 and wasted so much of my time. I'm not like this, but don't screw someone over.

As a writer, I should be able to testify to Raz Mason's gifts easily. And yet I find myself…read moresearching for ways to describe her supportive, insightful, gentle ability to lead me out of myself into full consciousness of who I am and what I want to be. Sometimes I wonder if she is somehow tuned in to parts of my subconscious mind that I have tuned out. She often makes a quiet suggestion or rephrases something I've said about myself in terms so positive I have to think, "Yes, she's right. That's really me. I don't have to apologize for me!" I love it when she gives me a homework assignment because it always involves doing something good and positive for myself. You would think that having lived two-thirds of my life already, I would be in the habit of doing this all the time. But I'm not. Thanks to Raz, I'm getting in the habit of it. Often she comments on how animated my eyes and face have become when I start talking about something I love more than I knew I loved, and I think, "That's right! I love that! Why am I not allowing myself to pursue it?" In just the few months I have been working with Raz, I have experienced great inner change. Good things are flowing my way--people, opportunities, challenges, achievements--that I never would have imagined. I wake up eager to consume the goodness of my day. Thank you, Raz.

Even though Raz and I come from two different cultural backgrounds (I am both Arab and Muslim), I…read morehave never once felt that she was judging me or my values. Raz is extremely comfortable to speak with and is very mindful as she directs our conversations and has something to bring to my attention. When I first spoke to Raz, there was a sense of calm about her where I knew immediately that I wanted to take a chance and do these sessions with her (knowing very well that I am a very private person and I do not trust easily). There was something about her; her tone and her sensitivity made me take to her very quickly and allowed me to let my guard down faster than I imagined. When deciding how these sessions work, Raz gave me her offers regarding the number of sessions, and she said that it is probably around the tenth session that one starts to sense a change in themselves. I am so glad that I trusted her judgement and took a leap of faith, because it was probably around my eleventh session with her that I started to have certain epiphanies about myself that still had not occurred to me around our fifth or sixth session. I began to feel positive and happy after every one of our talks, and it was then that I realized that she and I were meant to meet, and she was meant to be part of my empowered journey in this thing called life. Not only is Raz sensitive to her client's situations, she is intuitive and seems to have a lot of experience in her line of work. Even though she is mindful, it does not stop her from speaking up and suggesting what she believes will be helpful to me. She is passionate about her work, and most importantly, I feel that Raz genuinely wants me to be the best version of myself and to succeed. When I throw a curve ball her way she is always present. She offers me extra readings where she knows I will benefit, and I cannot thank her enough. Raz has given me very practical tools to help me in my day to day struggles, and some of the things we have spoken about have been so enlightening that that they have changed aspects in my life I assumed were set in stone. Without these sessions with Raz, there are certain things I would not have thought of and probably still would have viewed as being one-dimensional. This testimonial is my thank you to her for the support she has given me as well as an invitation to anyone who is looking to better themselves or parts of themselves they thought were resistant to change. If you are looking to transform the course of your life even in the smallest ways, Raz is the person to take this journey with. Her positive attitude and energy is infectious, but you have to be an honest, willing, and dedicated participant. RA, Middle East
