WOW!! The power of her presence as a teacher and mentor expands your consciousness and truly brings you to another level. As a teacher, Sirry is dedicated, kind, generous, tuned in! and so knowledgeable. She brings out the very best in you and her classes are fun and fascinating. I felt my own abilities opening and growing stronger just being in her class and it felt so natural. That's what it's like to be in the presence of a true medium and a true teacher. You will be inspired and filled with love working with Sirry ! Sirry is a gifted and natural born medium. I feel so lucky to have found her in the Boston area. I always feel like I am in the presence of someone from a different realm when I am in Sirry's class. I have taken a few mediumship classes in my life with famous mediums but nothing compares to the way Sirry imparts her wisdom and guides you. She IS a rare Gem and the real deal. I highly recommend Sirry's services.

I first saw the ad in one of those newspaper advertisements they give away for free at Whole Foods…read more It looked like a great ad. I called to make an appointment as I was going thru a hard time in my life and wanted some guidance. I should have trusted my instincts. The way that he speaks is definitely rehearsed because he says it over and over again. Also when he is telling you something he has said over and over again, his tone changes like he is annoyed. I chalked it up to "hey we all have to repeat ourselves in our jobs everyday, no big deal" Boy was I wrong. He called the day before to confirm the appointment, and to make sure I had my credit card with me before we started. The appointment was 1 hour for $175, and for $400 and another 2 hours he could heal me and my past lives. The appointment started off with the past lives- It was like make believe. I also had to wait while he wrote it all down. Anyone could have made up that I used to be a shoe maker with throat problems, and that's why I clear my throat in this life often. Again, the story of me being a shoe maker sounded like he was reading it from an index card he pulled from a pile. I asked about relationship issues, health, career, etc, and then stopped asking questions, as it was just a waste of time. I could have gotten a better reading from a homeless man off the street. Hopefully people reading this review will CANCEL their appointment with him, and find someone else that is an actual psychic, or at least isn't annoyed with people while talking to them. Please please please go see someone else.

He barely made eye contact. My first time meeting him, he handed me a flier ad of more things to purchase from him and left me to sit with it in the hallway while he went in his office with the door closed. He tried to talk me into spending over $400 on my very first visit over the phone when all I requested is Reiki. My appointment wound up costing me $175 and still, no Reiki. His treatment was him speaking quickly for his microphone, asking me to repeat things occasionally, standing up and sitting down... The whole thing felt contrived and there was zero physical healing. You could say for that amount of money I could've gotten two 1 hr. Reiki sessions by my old healer (whom is the real deal plus has never pressured me about money). I have been to really good psychics/energy healers in the past, whose presence makes me feel nothing but love but I just did not get that from him. Sorry, if I'm to be honest that's the truth. Maybe he is gifted but he just is not humble or compassionate enough for my taste. I'm not sure. Side Note: I'm just going to remind people to please trust your instincts. Intuition is truly your best barometer in these situations. Recognize red flags and trust your gut. There are amazingly loving, EFFECTIVE, energy healers! Please spend wisely and don't give up from one wasted experience.

She is very accommodating with your schedule and her office building has parking, bathrooms, and she has coffee/tea/water there. Strong Roots also has acupuncture and does classes!

I have had the good fortune of being one of Dr. Schmidt-Hellerau's patients. It is certainly an…read moreinteresting thing to publicly talk about one's own private therapy. I tend to be a private person. But without Dr. Schmidt-Hellerau's help, I would never have known the happiness I have in my life. It isn't just that she has helped me work through my problems-it is that I can now experience a level of joy and fulfillment I would have never known without her. I tear up thinking about my life now and how full it is. Seriously. I wouldn't have ever said I wasn't happy before-but its like seeing color for the first time. You just couldn't know you were seeing in black and white until you see that first burst of color. No therapy is necessarily easy. It is inherent in the human condition that we go over the same things again and again. Think of any difficulty you have and the question inevitably appears if you are reflective enough...Why do I keep doing this SAME thing over and over even though it causes me anxiety/pain/embarrassment etc. It is the work of therapy that you keep exploring hey-why AM I doing this again and again? So, yes therapy can be difficult in that way, because you can become frustrated with YOURSELF. It is a kind of work. But with Dr. Schmidt-Hellerau,it has also been deeply rewarding and pleasurable. It is rare to find someone who listens in the way she does. I felt she understood something so essential about me in the very first session. I have been to many different psychologists over the years. Nothing. even. compares. She is brilliant. I never felt intruded upon, she listened and heard what I needed. She understood what I was saying when I couldn't articulate it yet. I saw where I was living in fear and she helped me to be brave. And always, always, I knew her heart was in it. In her quiet, brilliant way she cleared a path for me to walk down. She never needed to impose, she never used her brilliance to blind, she cared in the most quiet way. Which is what I needed. You may need something else, and I bet she would know that, too. Two people in the field recommended Dr. Schmidt-Hellerau to me. I have some affiliation with the field so I was lucky. I know most people are not lucky in that way. This is why this private, happy person decided to write a review.

She is very pleasant and elegant and means well, and I imagine she may very well be a good scholar of psychoanalysis in the theoretical realm.

The experience was a waste of time and money.

I have been lucky to have known Mandy for over a decade. She knows I was already a little cautious…read moreabout taking her up on Reki but I really wanted to experience Mandy in her element. From the moment I walked into her space I felt a warm and safe energy. One of my favorite parts about the treatment was her brilliant music making with the sound bowls. Music is a key factor for me to relax. I felt like I was under a tree in the backyard listening to chimes and the wind blowing. From start to finish I was in complete relaxation mode. I made sure to prepare myself by really letting go of any expectations I had going in. Another bonus was Mandy's soft gentle touch and energy hovering over me. I am pretty sure I fell asleep for a couple minutes and when it was over I was in relaxation heaven. For me that is being in my body. Usually I have to do this on my own but I think the combination of me being so comfortable with Mandy as well as letting go of any expectations of what Reki is was a huge help to being present. I could write for days about what I truly thing of Mandy. She is a wellness warrior. I say that cause she has dedicated time and energy into practicing what she preaches. Her passion for working with others and helping others find their balance is a gift she will no doubt share with you when you are in her presence. I don't just highly recommend Mandy. I suggest you just stop thinking and make an appointment and see for yourself. Pretty sure you will walk away one happy + relaxed and rejuvenated human.
