Aila and Jonathan are the embodiment of love and kindness. We were fortunate to meet the Love Gurus…read moreduring a particularly difficult season for my partner, Hannah and I. Upon meeting them for the first time, We instantly felt safe and secure in their presence, which is unfamiliar for us as a result of past traumas. However, we felt comfortable and at home with the two of them. Hannah and I reached out to Aila and Jonathan seeking a closer connection spiritually, emotionally, and physically. Trauma had fractured our abilities to open up and connect with each other in these ways consistently. Although we had tried individual and couples talk therapy, there was still a disconnect between our bodies and minds. When "traditional" methods had let us down, The Love Gurus were there to pick us up. Hannah and I were both able to open up our hearts, minds, and bodies to the healing process through our sessions and the immersion courses. The results were phenomenal. I'm happy to say that we're now engaged and in the best place that we've ever been. Hannah and I would HIGHLY recommend the Love Gurus to any of our closest friends and family. We are confident that you will come to a greater understanding of yourself, your behaviors, and how they impact your ability to give/receive love. Aila and Jonathan also go out of their way to ensure that you receive the best care possible. They always made themselves available to us. Never did we have a question, email, or phone call that went unanswered. They were there for us far beyond what we signed up for. This was the BEST healing care that we have ever received! If you're feeling scared, please know that we were too. You have nothing to fear with Jonathan and Aila! They're only here to help. With love, Hannah and Matt

SO, I came on Yelp to write a review of Natalie and found that I started one in May of 2013 that I…read morenever finished. Here it is: [Therapy seems like a funny thing to Yelp about, but when I saw that Natalie had a Yelp page I couldn't resist. Natalie is knowledgeable, caring, considerate, concerned, and amazingly genuine. When I started working with her, I was initially hopeful with a dash of skepticism that therapy could really help my issues. Natalie quelled all my skepticism and really helped me make some realizations.] - Me, May 2013 Now, more than 7 years later, after moving to the midwest and back, I am working with her again and she is still the best therapist I have ever met, and I've been in an out of therapy for more than 27 years... that's a lot of therapists. I am in the healthiest relationship of my life and the things I've gotten from our time together are a vital piece of that puzzle. I cannot recommend her enough.

My wife and I saw Kayna for quite some time and she's helped us immeasurably…read more My only prior experience with mental health professionals was with a psychiatrist, and that was a cold, clinical ordeal. Kayna was certainly not that. Kayna is very personable, empathetic, calm, understanding, and patient. She truly cares for her patients, and it shows. Kayna is properly certified but also embraces alternative healing, such as meditation, CBD, etc. She referred my wife to a non-traditional holistic wellness doctor, and that's given us some good insight. Kayna also taught us some "grounding techniques" that helps to regulate emotions. As hokey as it sounds, that has legitimately helped my wife in various aspects of her life. The biggest thing for us was that Kayna helped us break down walls and really helped get us through some hurdles. I can't imagine how different things would have been for my wife and me if we hadn't seen Kayna.

I went to this center for a 2 week intensive. I had done several intensives before for trauma, and…read morealways found the intensives to be profoundly helpful. In the beginning, Douglas instructed me to pay a housing deposit to the offsite sober living they worked with. I did. Douglas sent an email weeks later (1 week before my arrival) to send a deposit to a different sober living. I reached out which lead to him explaining they changed locations. When I told him I had already paid the deposit as he instructed, he then told me to call the other sober living house to try and get my money back, and also to go ahead and pay the new one. I was in the middle of a conference out of town. He called multiple times asking if I got my deposit back. I finally told him to go address it himself as I had no connection to these places and they do. Highly unprofessional. The check in at the center was strange. Alex and Douglas facilitated. Absolutely no smiles, no warmth, no welcome. Their first question was asking for your id and the remaining amount you owed. The therapist they had me with was inexperienced and insecure. I expressed to Alex that I felt he is somehow triggered by me as he is not able to connect or be present. I shared many of the things he said that showed his insecurity. I found out later he was newly licensed. Alex's response was "All his clients love him." I left after a week. Not because I am afraid to address my pain. Not because the program was too hard. I left because they had me rooming with someone who had recently been arrested for being a sexual predator. They knew his record and still roomed him with someone who was there to address being abused as a kid.... They put me with an abuser. I shared multiple times with my therapist that I felt uncomfortable. There was so much chaos and dysfunction that came from being there. It was a horrific experience. Alex offered for me to go to a different center at their cost. I shared with her the experience with Douglas and how all of it felt like a scam. I was not surprised to later find that Douglas and Alex are married. Douglas has zero licensing in health and wellness , but runs (partially owns) the center and is married to the head therapist. As someone who has been working hard on myself for over 20 years to heal and have had nothing but positive experiences in all other intensives, I say run as far as you can from The Center for Healthy Sex. Until they can present that they've done some work on themselves, can be more authentic, and operate in a professional manner, just run.

Seeing a therapist is already terrifying but she makes you feel comfortable and easy to talk with, to where no question is a stupid question. She is extremely knowledgeable and up to date with information. She walks you through all your concerns (even if it takes you a long time to understand it) with patience. I follow Dr. Chavez on all social media platforms and I am amazed everyday with the information I learn, outside of individual therapy. I am fortunate to have found a person who doesn't undermine my struggles but relates and is determined to help so I can live my best life. I highly recommend Dr. Shannon Chavez and all her expertise.
