After 3 years, I'm back. I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. So when my…read morepanic and anxiety attacks conveniently began to tag team, I found myself back to the beginning. The universe knew exactly what it was doing sending me back to the starting line. I've lost my way again. I indeed forgot how to calm my mind and body. It was a humbling way for the universe to tell me I am not meditating nor relaxing correctly. That's where Jessika comes in. She is the absolute best and is truly amazing at holding a safe space for you to achieve complete and total relaxation. She offers virtual appointments and thankfully she had availability within a few days. My experience during a session is walking in with a million thoughts racing through my head while my body can't sit down and walking out relaxed, peaceful, and focused. What a difference. I must admit how naive I was to think that reiki should not be a consistent part of my healing journey. Talking with Jessika, she made an interesting point that while reiki can help after one session its benefits can go beyond by being more consistent. I do agree because if one session can bring peace to my life imagine what monthly sessions could do for my health and healing. My goal is to be more consistent in reiki healings this year so that I can be the best version of myself. I can't wait to book my next session and continue to work on healing. So if you are on the fence, do it. Book the appointment and get started on your healing journey.

Everything about it flowed and just integrated a profound beautiful experience. Jessica has a gentle yet powerful presence. Her knowledge on Reiki, healing and spiritual well being is a great addition to the experience. This retreat was beyond learning, it created lifelong friendships, deep healing and a core memory! The training itself was well planned, the overall flow felt very relaxed, yet so powerful! I would recommend attending any retreat Jessica is offering... it's life changing I have taken all of my Holy Fire Reiki training from Jessica and I am so grateful for her helping me in this beautiful journey of healing

I retained Julie's services for my daughter with regards to helping her pick a college major that…read morewould fit her personality and long term objectives. My daughter enjoyed working with Julie very much.

So, I originally wrote this review almost four months ago. Julie LaCroix saw the review and…read moreresponded to it. However, did she do anything to make sure she answered the main element of the complaint (that she won't stop spamming me in spite of numerous requests over the years - including those apparently only decorative "unsubscribe" links in her emails?). No. Screen shot for proof. Draw what conclusions you will. Original Review and Comment on Response: I had two appointments with Julie LaCroix several years ago. I ultimately thought the sessions were a waste of time and (quite a lot of) money. She decided my skill set made me a particularly good fit for a specific type of job, and she disregarded my repeated protests that the job in question went against my moral values. She made up her mind and was incapable of hearing anything that didn't align with her first (somewhat arbitrary seeming) idea. She ended our last session by throwing together a ridiculous, typo-ridden resume in a couple minutes targeted at a position I had made clear I would not apply for. (Since that time I finished my graduate degree and am working in a suitable career.) After our second meeting, I was ready to move on and not give career therapists another thought. I have not had that luxury, however, since Julie LaCroix has spammed me and stalked me on social media ever since. Every couple years, I get re-added to her email list which I have never given her permission to put me on, and she has not responded to messages asking her to desist. She also periodically tries to connect with me on social media (she is undeterred by my refusal to connect with her, and, again, does not respond to messages asking her to desist in contacting me). I understand that she thinks networking will help grow her business. I don't understand why she thinks harassing people and ignoring them when they object would be beneficial to anyone. Given her systematic abuse of my personal information, however, I am no longer surprised that she could not process my objection to an unethical career. **Regarding Response** Notice the non-denial regarding the abusive email practices I describe. Also note the absence of a statement that she would address this matter and make sure I am not re-added to her list again in the future. The rest is a matter of he-said-she-said, but why, after 11 years, would I have reason to think of her--much less make random false claims in a review? I would encourage her to check her email (julie@julielacroix.com) to see that I have, in fact, contacted her multiple time over the past 11 years to ask that she stop re-adding me to her spam list. She has also found me years after using her (dis)services and tried to get me to engage with her professional profiles on Facebook and Instagram over the years. The dishonesty/lack of integrity in her response here is appalling.

I can't say enough good things about my experience with Carlos. He was super accommodating given I…read morehad quite a long commute to see him in person and every session was well worth it. He helped me break a 15 year habit which I still can't believe I get to say sometimes. His guidance, exercises, and overall communication are incredibly effective.

I was 46 when he guided me through the transformation to letting go of this vice. Recently, I went back to him to give up what I thought was a harmless brownie and cookie passion; it was really just my way to rebel. Meaning Carlos doesn't just say sleepy sleepy and puts you under, then you are magically fixed. He talks through why you have either trauma or patterns, and then helps you go deep into yourself and change that pattern at the core. I couldn't be more grateful to have been sent to him. Besides LASIK eye surgery, this is the best money I have spent on myself.

Courtney is warm, compassionate, confident, incredibly knowledgeable, and exceptionally skilled. She is easy to connect with and easy to trust. While she is always professional, we also shared quite a few laughs during our sessions. She has a very down to earth, practical approach that makes therapy feel comfortable instead of intimidating. What I appreciate most about Courtney is that her goal is to help you build the skills you need so you can confidently move forward. She isn't interested in keeping people in therapy longer than necessary. She helps you work through challenges, develop healthy coping skills, and then supports you in living your life with confidence, knowing her door is always open if you ever need to come back. My husband and I first found Courtney when we realized our marriage needed help. We had reached a point where the tension between us had become overwhelming, and we needed someone to guide us back to healthier communication. Finding a therapist with the right qualifications wasn't easy, and we spent months waiting through our insurance network before eventually finding Courtney. From our very first sessions, she created a safe environment where both of us felt comfortable expressing our thoughts and emotions. She taught us how to truly listen to one another, communicate more effectively, and work through conflict in a healthier way. The skills she taught us are still part of our marriage today. We still use them whenever disagreements come up, and because of what we learned, arguments resolve much faster with more understanding, appreciation, and respect for each other. Investing in therapy was one of the best investments we've made in our marriage. Courtney helped us move beyond unnecessary conflict and build a stronger, healthier relationship. We continue to be incredibly grateful for the impact she had on our family. About a year ago, my teenage daughter was a passenger in an automobile accident where the car was totaled. They were struck by a car running a red light at a high speed while crossing Pacific Coast Highway. The accident was extremely traumatic, and it happened only days before she was supposed to get her driver's license. She no longer wanted to drive and was understandably struggling. Initially, I chose a therapist through our insurance, but it quickly became clear that my daughter needed someone with more experience treating trauma. Switching her to Courtney was one of the best decisions I could have made. Over the next few months, Courtney built an incredible relationship with my daughter. She earned her trust, helped her process the trauma, and gave her practical tools she continues to use today. My daughter not only got her driver's license, but she regained her confidence and moved forward with her life. Today, she is focused on school, her future, and college. She has become resilient, confident, emotionally aware, and open with our family. As a parent, I knew trauma was beyond my own expertise, and I am so thankful we found someone as qualified and compassionate as Courtney to help guide her through it. Courtney has made a lasting difference in our marriage, our family, and my daughter's life. If you're looking for an experienced therapist who genuinely cares, builds real relationships with her clients, and gives you practical tools that create lasting change, I wholeheartedly recommend her. She is one of those rare professionals whose knowledge, compassion, and skill truly stand out, and we will always be grateful for everything she has done for our family.

He's extremely patient, takes the time to really listen, and is thoughtful in how he responds to your needs rather than rushing the process. I came into therapy knowing I had a lot of healing to do, and Michael met me exactly where I was. His calm presence and genuine care made it easier to open up and work through things at my own pace. Each session felt intentional, supportive, and grounding. If you're looking for a therapist who truly listens, respects your journey, and supports real healing, I highly recommend Michael.

After investing…read moretime with him I can say with 100% certainty that he deserves every amazing compliment given to him. I've been to highly regarded therapists who spread out meetings for months, consuming unnecessary time and investment. His superpower is that he epitomized complete altruism with laser sharp discernment and focused attention that facilitated deep healing of emotional wounds so buried I didn't even know they existed. He also leaves the door open for further growth and healing without feeling locked into a contractual relationship. Honestly he should patent his Method for all coaches to follow! I give him the highest possible rating and encourage others to not hesitate reaching out to him.

She listened--not to respond, but to truly understand.No masks , no pressure, no judgment.She held space for my voice, for my process, with such gentleness, love, and grace. Her words were honest, grounded, and filled with wisdom from a life rich in experience. She's not only a powerful healer, Mrs. Asia USA '19 , Senior Wealth Advisor , and founder of Camb from Nothing, Females for Football, and Diversity Fashion World, she's also a loving mother of three. The way she gracefully juggles it all--with purpose and heart--truly inspired me. There are steps she's taken that I see myself walking too--as someone who's also into healing, helping, and spiritual growth. I left feeling aligned, empowered, and reminded of who I am. If your soul's been craving peace, growth, or a moment to just breathe, I truly recommend connecting with her.

He helped me achieve my mental health goals with what felt like small, achievable steps. Through weekly meetings, I reached a point of stability that I had never before experienced. I had grown emotionally strong in every aspect of my life, and had broken free from my previous weaknesses. He helped me experience happiness in areas of my life that I didn't even know there was happiness, and this set him above the other therapists I'd seen. Dr. Andy is an astute listener and truly cares for people. I could not recommend anyone more highly. I am incredibly grateful to have found Dr. Andy, because he truly changed the course of my life.
