I had a good experience working with Rita. I had done enough research on hypnotherapy and knew what…read moreI wanted & expected with a provider, Rita met my needs and expectations. I felt heard, seen, and felt. She gave good examples and dialogue that I could absorb and understand, which I very much appreciated. I liked that I received a few MP3 audios to continue doing the work, making time to listen 2-3x daily. Even after 7-sessions, I don't feel, just the in-person sessions would have been enough. For the issue that I came in to work on, I'm still working through it. I know every individual is different and hypnotherapy works differently for each person. It's not overnight or immediate for each person to work through things. I think it's good, there is a free consultation initially to see if the relationship could move forward. If you could be receptive, if you're both a good match, if she could actually help you. But then, I was a bit caught off guard with having to commit to a 7-session package, $1225 out the gate. I felt that could have been explained a bit more in the phone call prior to consultation. I like to ease into everything in life and I'm a bit more cautious with taking a plunge, especially with a provider of conscious work. I paid in two installments; I had to leave half as the deposit for the full package to secure that I was serious about doing the work. I had to book my dates right then & there after consultation to secure doing the work sooner rather than later. She gets booked out well in advance. It took a month for me to get the initial consultation appt. Cancelling is not a good idea if you care about doing the work per week or every 2-wks, but if you must, especially on short notice, as long as you can be flexible, she can get you into a slot asap. And she can shift an appt if she gets well in advance notice. Nonetheless, I'm glad I did the work and I had a good experience with Rita. I highly recommend her for hypnotherapy. I appreciated her honesty, practical guidance, feedback, words of wisdom, emoting skills, and choosing to do this kind of work. And I appreciated that she was responsive via email, text or if I needed information.

After my first session with Rita, I knew she was someone who would be pivotal in my growth as a…read moremusician and human. My goal was simple: learn faster and tap deep into the creativity of my subconscious to compose music. Within the first 3 sessions, she was able to help me do just that; but then we went deeper. I discovered things about my personality and subconscious that would have taken at least another decade to learn on my own. Rita accelerated my maturity and learning process in just a matter of a few hours. We delved deep into trauma, conquering overpowering feelings of sugar addiction, confidence, and many more topics. Her expertise at seeing things from multiple angles had me viewing life from so many new perspectives that it quickly changed how I navigated the world - for the better. It was like she guided me out of the Truman Show and then equipped me with tools and knowledge to adjust and thrive in my new reality. She's super easy to talk to, incredibly wise, and one of the most interesting people I've ever met. Also, her office space is very warm & cozy; it's easy and pleasant to melt in her atmosphere. Without a doubt, I'll continue utilizing her services for years to come!

I've had the pleasure of working with Lindsey to prepare for the births of both my babies (2017 and…read more2020). I cannot recommend her enough. My husband and I took a HypnoBirthing class and refresher. I also got a Reiki treatment and placenta encapsulation. Whatever service you decide to use, you will not be disappointed. Lindsey's professionalism and compassion are what you need. I was blown away by our virtual hypnotherapy. The amazing tools she gives to her client stay with you when you need them most. I would recommend her to anyone preparing for birth or going through anything where they need a little support. Stop scrolling through reviews of doulas and just contact Lindsey. She works with amazing people who will form an entire team to support you.

I purchased a deal through Yelp for a session through Sunflowers Healing and Wellness. I had been…read morehaving issues with anxiety and wanted to try something new to get rid of the problem. I noticed many of the reviews were for pregnant women (hynobirthing), but I figured I would give it a shot anyway since Lindsey came highly recommended. I figured if she couldn't help me, she would let me know. I didn't want to waist time so I made my appointment the same week so that I wouldn't chicken out. The whole idea of hypnosis can be a bit unnerving especially to someone with my nerves. I arrived at my appointment and immediately noticed the laid back calm atmosphere. Lindsey is professional and has a good aura about her. I noticed immediately that I felt comfortable around her. I had a 60 minute session and walked out feeling relaxed. If you are considering this type of session for any issue, you have to keep an open mind. I am glad that I took a chance.

I highly recommend Moksha Living. I've worked with multiple providers there in various capacities…read moreand they all have been incredibly wonderful, accommodating, and - best of all - helpful in my mental health and growth journey. The search for a good therapist who you jive with, takes insurance, and is also accepting new clients can be really demoralizing. It definitely was for me. I felt so fortunate when I found Huma Sikandar Fatakia, and I can't say enough good things about her. She is so understanding and has an almost uncanny ability to remember details I haven't spoken about in a while, and connect the dots to help me recognize patterns and opportunities in my life. She has also helped me incorporate some mindful practices in my life when things feel heavy... which I never thought I'd be able to do. When Huma went on maternity leave, there was a seamless transition to Alyssa McCall for that duration. I again felt really fortunate that they didn't leave me hanging and matched me with another provider. Alyssa was also great! It is hard switching from one provider to another, but Alyssa offered new perspective and some different tools that I've held onto since going back to Huma. Finally, Michell Stanley was able to accommodate my partner and me very quickly for sessions, and that has been a huge help. She is very good at what she does and very understanding. As the owner of the business, she's also easy to work with for any administrative needs. I feel so extremely lucky to have found Moksha Living when I did, before the pandemic, and to be able to continue my work with them in a safe way. During COVID-19, all sessions are remote via a secure platform.

I cannot recommend Michell and Moksha Living enough. My work with Michell was truly life-changing…read more Michell's approach is a unique combination of coaching and therapy, which helped me feel heard and understood, while also holding me accountable and giving me tools to work through a particularly challenging life event. Michell demonstrated the perfect amount of care and accountability, and balanced intellectual and emotional introspection. I truly feel like a better person after my work with her. I've tried a not-insignificant number of therapists in my life and Michell is above and beyond the best therapist I have ever worked with.

In our initial call, David claimed one session could cure my trauma. Already a red flag…read more When I arrived at my appointment, David led me to an empty floor of the building and an empty office. I did not feel safe. The first half (yes half!) of the session was David patronizingly explaining physical and spiritual concepts without soliciting feedback. I know what a chakra is. I know that the human body can carry an electrical current. I couldn't get a word in edgewise to say that, or to disagree with some of his wilder claims. The energy healing itself wasn't helpful for me, which is fine - clearly we weren't exactly vibing. My real complaint there is that I told him "This isn't really working for me," and he gave me this smug look and said, "Oh it's working." He also left the room for the last five or so minutes of the session without saying anything. I'd look for energy healing elsewhere.

She is smart and intelligent, and insightful. I highly recommend her. Best I've found so far.read more

Hi my name is Smita C, but I used my grandmother's name for my Yelp account…read more A friend of mine recommended that I connect with Don (who he said was a "gift") after I told him that I had been struggling with various aspects of my life post-trauma. I did one session to start and then a package of sessions. I first want to say that Don has a very beautiful/peaceful/calm/healing energy and he genuinely cares and wants to help - while empowering you with tools to help yourself (he emphasizes that HE is not doing anything TO YOU which I loved because I have worked with various practitioners and different modalities that create the opposite context where their goal seems to be relying on them to feel good for perpetuity). As I just expressed to Don after we wrapped our final session of the package that this last session felt like this very powerful sum total culmination of all of the sessions before it which, in reflection, felt like seeds that were planted to eventually bloom. & I am mentioning that here so that - if you choose to work with Don - you are patient with the process because each person's experience will be relative to THEM & will depend on so many factors Including the severity of what brought them to seek hypnosis. For me personally... In 2012, I became something I never expected to become (a domestic violence survivor) and I lived through extreme nonstop trauma over seven months followed by 12 years of doing the deep (& often exhausting) healing work that would often make me "feel *good* temporarily" but nothing really ever lasted. As such, I so wish that I could have experienced what I did with Don far earlier in my healing journey, but I am so glad to have had the opportunity now. Don is absolutely a GIFT (I feel so deeply connected to my being one too) and I highly recommend him.
