I worked with Sue for 5 weeks on my interview skills in preparation for a big job interview at the…read morecompany of my dreams. I had a lot of anxiety about interviewing, which she helped me with a great deal. We worked on developing strong responses to common interview questions, strategies for dealing with anxiety, and general interview advice. Working with Sue was such a huge help to me, and boost in my confidence. I ended up doing very well on the interview, and landed the job! I know her help had a lot to do with my success. I would highly recommend her for interview coaching or any other big challenge you are facing in your life. She's lovely to work with and puts you at ease. Her hours are also very flexible, which is nice when you have an 8-5 schedule. Thank you, Sue!

Finding a good match in a therapist can be very difficult. Over the years, I have been to quite a…read morefew therapists but never felt I really connected with them -- or they with me. There have been some I liked as people, but in terms of a therapist, so many have just missed the mark. They either had their own agendas or they really just didn't listen to what I was saying. (Or, in my younger days, the fact that I wouldn't say anything.) This is not the case with Ginger Houghton at Bright Spot Counseling. I have been working with Ginger for a couple of years now. Her approach is very gentle and accepting. I've never felt judged or shamed, and she is generous with her sprinkling of kind words and praise. One of the best things Ginger did for me was recognize -- and label -- my anxiety. While I knew I was anxious, I'd never had a professional put a name to it and then offer a real, solid method to deal with it. She suggested medication but without judgment; she did not say "You should be medicated". Rather, she approached it gently, saying, "I don't know how you feel about this, and some people are definitely against it, but meds are one way to go." This is Ginger's approach -- it's gentle, and made through suggestion rather than through directives. She never says "Do this!", but rather, "What do you think about this?" Or, "What would happen if you tried that?" She never judges -- just suggests -- and she gives me the space to reject her ideas without feeling that she's rejecting me. Working with Ginger is truly a two way street; she listens, she asks questions, and she lets me ask questions. She doesn't have that stand-offish aura that some therapists have; rather, going to see her is like going to visit a friend, except that all the attention is on me. But, unlike other people I've been to, Ginger is willing to reveal a thing or two about herself, which makes it easy to relate to and trust her. Bright Spot Counseling offers many different methods of therapy. So far, I have just done the regular talk therapy, but once the weather gets nicer, I am planning to venture into (out to?) the walk and talk therapy. Just the fact that they recognize that therapy is not a one-size-fits-all proposition demonstrates how in tune they really are with their clients. Bright Spot Counseling truly is a bright spot in my life.

It also gave me relief from the chronic tension I carry in my upper back and shoulders. I have had these issues for over 45 years and hypnotherapy works so well! With her help, it was easy to retrain the way my body reacts to anxiety. I can now easily apply these tools in any stressful situation. I wish I had known about hypnotherapy sooner, as now I'm in control of my body and my tummy issues have vastly improved. My daughter was a client of Devon's early last year with the same amazing results. Devon is very professional and highly skilled. She is an amazing hypnotherapist with a very calming presence. She makes you so comfortable each session and provides you with specific tools you can easily use to give you the peace desired by your mind and body. I felt so completely relaxed after each session, and I was always in total control of my mind (for anyone concerned thinking they have to be hypnotized). Devon will help you change your life for the better!

I know the address sounds like it is a magical made up place. Anyways I got there around 5pm and met Bill, He had me go though exercises to measure my strength, flexibility and endurance. Bill went over my results comparing me to where average was for my age, asked me if I was interested, I said yes and put his hand out towards mine we shook on it, I setup two 30 minute sessions a week. I have experienced lower back issues since I was in high school. I have tried Yoga and exercise in the past, but I would eventually experience too much pain to continue and make it a regular practice. This is why I choose to involve a professional to help me make an attempt to fix my back with exercise. I really didn't expect to see positive side effects so quickly. But within a few weeks, I started to notice I wasn't hurting. Then after a few months I started to notice my muscles are getting toned. Now that I'm 18 or so weeks into this process my life has changed so much for the better. I noticed this morning with snow shoveling I just blasted though the drive way and it was easier than I ever remembered. Overall, my experience with Personal Training at Transcending Horizons is positive. I am writing my review as I am starting to get excited for my workout tonight after work. If you're looking to change your life, I have no complaints about the Transcending Horizons, my experience has well exceeded my expectations.
