I began working with Ryan this past summer to see if it could help my competition issues. At that…read morepoint I had been struggling in tournaments, and feeling as if I wasn't living up to my potential in my sport as I had lost 15 straight matches in a row. I had done everything from increasing training, strength and conditioning etc but nothing was helping me nor giving me the results I wanted. I figured I would try something completely different and reached out to Ryan for help. Throughout our 6 months of work Ryan helped me identify attributes within myself that were holding me back while being a supportive coach to help me visualize and reach my goals. I no longer feel pressure nor anxiety in competitions, and if I do I have the recipe to help me deal with it. I'd like to think that if it wasn't for Ryan's work I would have never placed 2nd in a world tournament. Thanks Ryan, now I have the tools that can help me take the next step.

I cannot say enough good things about Arolyn. I've known her for over a decade and have worked with…read moreher on and off during that time, and she is deeply trustworthy, grounded, and truly exceptional at what she does. She is easily one of the most skilled clinicians I've worked with, and arguably one of the best in the area. I drive nearly 3 hours to see her, and it is absolutely worth it. In just a few sessions, I've experienced more meaningful progress than years of traditional therapy combined. Her approach is precise, intuitive, and highly effective in a way that feels both clinical and deeply human. She also has techniques that have provided immediate relief for symptoms like tinnitus, which I had been struggling with for a long time. If you are considering working with her, I cannot recommend her highly enough. She has genuinely been life-changing for me.

After researching several hypnotherapists I called Arolyn and set up an appointment. She had a…read moreclear treatment plan with some room for more treatments if needed. Arolyn is also an LMFT which really adds to her effectiveness in knowing how to use a tool like hypnotherapy alongside traditional therapy. I used her for therapy sessions in addition to hypno. Her hypnotherapy technique is unique but in order for it to be effective, it requires you to really do the work (as with any therapy). But it is worth the effort! I found Arolyn to be attentive, kind and generous. She helped me work through various blocks to get around negative thought patterns. I now have a recording that is like my own personal power ballad. Arolyn tucked in all of these thoughtful little tidbits from our various sessions into this special recording designed to help lift you up and focus your energy and thoughts. That recording wouldn't have been as robust without her help and without us both spending quite a bit of time on it. I now listen to that recording most every day. With Arolyn's help, I learned to go into a deep meditative state that helped to change the waves of my brain and even more difficult, learned to change the language that I use. And most of this work was really done between appointments with the tools Arolyn showed me. It isn't a super power but it does take effort on your part. I plan to keep her number handy and use her again when needed. Thank you Arolyn for your support and guidance!

DAVID IS THE BEST!…read more story: I am a tennis coach and own a tennis academy. A few months ago, I came to the realization that I wasn't doing great. My motivation seemed waning and my students weren't performing to the level we were accustomed to. Rather than reaching out to a therapist (I felt like my issues were more performance-related rather than anxiety or depression-related) I reached out to David and began working with him. David is a warm, generously attentive listener. He is ever optimistic and his optimism helps to make hard work feel almost effortless. Since working with David, my productivity, quality of focus, and self-belief have increased dramatically. I've consistently received positive feedback on how I'm performing and even on my mood. Even my own wife has seen a difference! Overall I cannot recommend working with David enough. Going forward David will be an integral part of the academy in helping the players manage their mental health and performance. the end.

His training is demanding and rigorous and if your player is looking to improve their game then he is one of the best in SoCal. Unfortunately due to our schedule change, my daughter had to schedule with a different coach in the area, and after two sessions she said, "They aren't Jayro and wanted to go back". Needless to say, we are back with him and couldn't be happier as she looks forward to her training session every week. For the review that said he has no experience with kids, I would disagree. Jayro has not only been there during the good games, but he has coached our daughter mentally during some of the struggles that come with playing ECNL level soccer. We can't thank Jayro enough for the development and mentorship he has provided our daughter during her soccer journey. THANK YOU!!

Ryan is by far the best instructor around. Both mental and hitting. My son has been going to him…read morefor nearly 4 years and it is an awesome feeling to see him grow and for him to have the knowledge needed and ability to take what he works on in the cages and be able to execute it in the game. Ryan always goes the extra mile and really is genuinely concerned about how things get executed outside of the cage, he doesn't want to waste your time or his hitting home runs in the cage only to go out and not have quality at bats on the field. He really pushes him to understand the WHY and what he needs to do to correct things or make the adjustments needed to be successful regardless of what the pitchers are doing! Can't say enough good things!!!

My son Mike has been taking lessons from Ryan for year now and I can tell you he is a completely…read moredifferent hitter now than before. Prior to working with Ryan, Mike had poor swing mechanics that lead to inconsistent hits, a poor mental approach that was based on hoping for a walk and not getting aggressive until he had two strikes against him. We determined that we needed help and Ryan was just the person for Mike. His personality and demeanor fit well with Mike's. His coaching style was one that Mike immediately responded to. I asked Ryan to completely rebuild Mike's swing mechanics so we set out twice a week to do just that. Along the journey Ryan has also taught Mike about his mental approach at the plate. Mike is now an aggresive batter who is looking to get his hit with zero or one strike against rather than waiting until he has two strikes as was the approach prior to working with Ryan. Mike is an eight grader playing 16U travel ball in a wood bat league. He is batting over 300 and is making solid contact. While he still has a long way to go, the combination of Ryan's coaching and Mike's hard work are paying off. We plan to continue to work with Ryan through Mike's high school baseball career. Anyone looking to learn how to hit a baseball needs to consider hiring Ryan Dambach. I think you will be pleased with the results. Bob Kerner

I just wanted to take a moment to sincerely thank her and show my appreciation for the care, support, and attention she has given me. She has been a blessing.

I'm just beginning my care with Dr. Amaliya Santiago, ND, and it's already clear that her approach…read moreto health is thoughtful, intentional, and grounded in long-term healing. She truly understands that meaningful health isn't achieved in a few rushed visits, but through an individualized process that looks at root causes rather than just managing symptoms. As a mid-30s mom of two who is generally healthy but has had lingering concerns that conventional medicine never really explored, I finally feel heard. Dr. Santiago is incredibly methodical and research-informed, yet her approach feels very human. She takes the time to explain how different systems in the body are connected and helps you understand why things are happening, which makes you feel like an active participant in your care rather than a passive patient. What stands out most is her clarity and honesty. She sets realistic expectations, educates you throughout the process, and creates care plans that are truly personalized, not protocol-driven. Even at the very start of this journey, I feel confident that I'm in capable hands and on a path that supports real, sustainable health. As a bonus, every single member of her team is wonderful. From the warmth and professionalism to the calm, inviting space, the experience feels unlike any medical setting I've been in before. My nurse drew my blood while I was mid-conversation and I genuinely didn't even notice, that's how skilled and gentle they are. It's simply a joy to be cared for in an environment like this.
