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.

I'm incredibly grateful for my therapy sessions with Michael. From the very beginning, he created a…read moresafe and judgment-free space where I felt truly heard. 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.

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.

I feel like this review is long overdue. I met with Erika pre pandemic a few times and she was a…read moregreat guiding light for me. The session that truly changed my life was this year, when she helped me confront the inner hurting child in me. She spent so much time to actively listen to my issues, to hear the pain I was going through. She helped me unlock a younger version of myself, face her and taught me how to better care for her. I've taken those skills everyday in life with me since that session. It has positively affected my relationships, the trust in myself and has helped heal me. I've told so many friends about this experience and they were all in awe. Thank you Erika , I hope we have a chance to meet again soon. Wishing you life will always treat you kindly.

I worked with Erika during a time in my life where I needed some guidance and felt lost on many…read moresubjects in life. I was someone who was not very spiritual, let alone seeker help through holistic means. However, over the past year I came to understand my spiritual side and knew I wanted to find a healer. I found Erika through Yelp and after researching reviews, her website, and having a free consultation I decided to book my first session. Since then I have purchased a few more sessions and also referred my sister. My sessions started with a guided meditation which felt incredible. There are thousands of guided meditations online (e.g. Youtube), but having one at the start is a session with Erika felt different and more uplifting. The sessions would consist of topics that I needed help with. The topics vary depending on the day and what I felt boiling since the last session. They consist of but not limited to life in general, personal relationships, work, past trauma, and personal development. Without getting into the details, at the end of each session, I felt like I had discovered something deep inside me that has been blocked. Erika helped extract whatever it is that has been giving me issues and provided me with guidance moving forward. She also me cut some knots that had been holding me back. Erika is very gifted at what she does. She provides a very comfortable and safe environment that allows you to share personal information that you may not share else where. All of my sessions were conducted online through zoom due to covid. I don't believe there would be a different if it was online or in person as I am still getting the same healing.

I first discovered The Meditation for Health Podcast in 2014. Immediately struck by the quality of…read morethe recordings, I was attracted to the energy of openness, and impressed by the relative lack of commercialization, compared to other meditation resources. It truly is geared towards health & wellbeing, steering clear of some of the 'tropes' and consumerism that I have found in other podcasts for meditation. The immense qualifications of Dr. Robert Puff also are a huge benefit -- in an era where many in the digital space profess to know so much, it is reassuring to know that you are in the 'hands of an expert' when listening to this podcast. I have always appreciated the pace and gentle focus of each session, Dr. Robert Puff has an aura of nonjudgment and safety in his language and message.

My wife encouraged me to connect with Katelyn because she worked with Katelyn and got good results…read more I'm not too familiar with that world but I said OK why not I'll try it out. So I bought a chakra clearing and energy healing session. Katelyn picked up on images in my mind that I did not share with her including something that happened in high school. Then she said, "You are a strong psychic and you have a powerful 3rd eye". I said, "What's a 3rd eye?" She laughed and tried to explain. That night I had to Google, "How do you know if you have a 3rd eye?" Katelyn must have cleared something or pressed a button because I started seeing visions after that session, and my visions come true. For example I was making coffee one morning when I saw a light gray truck in my mind. A couple hours later a light gray truck pulled up with a new client I never met before. Another time, I dreamed my niece got hurt on the right side of her face. When I saw her that weekend, there was a scratch under her right eye. The most exciting thing that happened is I manifested some stuff that I want. Before Katelyn I didn't know what manifesting is. After I learned, I started visualizing more customers at my business. In the months that have gone by, my business volume has been steadily climbing. These last 5 weeks, I've been so busy, I haven't run my weekly ad which I always do on Saturday. But I'm still getting more customers. I even won a bid for a military contract, and they paid me already too. I'm not too sure how all this works. But I've started to see things that happen before they happen, and I have more money in my pocket than I did before meeting Katelyn. So all in all, that is A-OK with me.

Nothing has had the impact of one three-hour session with Amanda. She's above and beyond the best life coach/therapist I've ever worked with. There's a quality that's hard to describe -- a rare emotional intuition and spirituality guiding her practice. She knew exactly which questions to ask to get to the core issue underneath my suffering, and she accurately reflected back what I was going through in a way that helped me reframe my thinking entirely. She empowered me to design my own solution to a problem I've been searching for a breakthrough on for years. This kind of guidance is one in a million, and something I've rarely found in the coaching or therapy world. I'm so grateful for the time and care I received from Amanda through Empower House Coaching. 10/10 recommend! Thank you so much for the breakthrough!!

Leadership was unclear, constant change left me uncertain, and my confidence in myself and my decisions was at an all-time low. I struggled with self-worth, second-guessing my abilities, and feeling like I had no real direction. Then, I went through the 8-week Clarity Catalyst course, and everything shifted. Almost immediately, I started seeing wins. I experienced a complete mindset shift, gaining not only clarity about my career but also a renewed sense of confidence and trust in myself.

By the end of the program, I had the clarity I was searching for about my career and started taking tangible steps toward my next chapter.

This experience was truly life-changing. I no longer feel stuck--I feel empowered. Thank you, Amanda!

I found Claudia from The Love Courses on Yelp during a very difficult period in my relationship. My…read morethen-fiancé and I were struggling, and Claudia reached out almost immediately after I posted my request. She was able to schedule us for an in-person session right away, which meant a lot during such an emotional time. Claudia is an exceptional therapist. She truly listens to both partners and makes each person feel heard and respected. At the same time, she isn't afraid to ask thoughtful, direct, and sometimes tough questions that get to the heart of the issue. While our relationship ultimately had several core challenges that couldn't be resolved, Claudia played a crucial role in helping us navigate that reality with clarity and compassion. She guided us through what she calls "uncoupling," allowing both of us to come to terms with the relationship ending in a healthy and grounded way. I'm incredibly grateful that we found Claudia, and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking honest, skilled, and deeply compassionate couples counseling.

Claudia is AMAZING. My husband and I went to her for our first year of marriage (pre marital…read morecounseling) to ensure we were starting our marriage off strong. It was the best investment we ever made. Claudia is a great listener, provides excellent tools, and is always in both of your corners rooting you on. She utilizes cutting edge research to help strengthen bonds and improve mental health. One of the many things I love about Claudia is that she herself is always learning and taking extra classes and courses to strengthen her own toolbox of resources. My husband said, "the tools she's given us, we don't even realize we use them anymore because it's like muscle memory now." Life is truly about living to the fullest, most peaceful and joyful route and while you may not even think you need couples therapy, I can guarantee it'll help even the strongest of couples!

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.
