We've had a wonderful experience working with Jeanette. She has been seeing our 10-year-old son,…read morewhile also providing parent coaching sessions for me and my wife, and the impact has been incredibly positive for our entire family. One of Jeanette's greatest strengths is her ability to create a safe, supportive space, especially for kids around our son's age. She quickly earned his trust, which is no small feat, and he feels comfortable opening up to her in a way that has truly helped his growth. In addition to her work with our son, Jeanette's parent coaching has been invaluable. She has helped us better understand our child and given us thoughtful, practical guidance on how to approach specific situations. She combines open, insightful discussions with meaningful education, equipping us with tools and perspectives that we continue to use every day. We're very grateful for Jeanette's care, professionalism, and dedication, and would highly recommend her to other families.

Angie Motter is the best therapist I've ever had and I've been going to therapy on and off since I…read morewas 19, and I'm 54. I am going through a contentious divorce and initially saw her with my husband twice. But he didn't want to go anymore and I was seeing my own therapist through my insurance. That therapist behaved unethically at times and I just felt uneasy with her. In fact the three therapists I tried through my insurance were all subpar. Willing and able to pay cash for a good therapist, I asked Angie if I could see her individually and I am SO happy she said yes. She is so gifted. She is enthusiastic, compassionate, an astute listener, very present, and lets me guide the sessions but also asks timely questions and makes insightful observations. She really seems to get me, is so supportive, and I feel like I'm making really good progress with her help. I'm also grateful that she does EMDR. The last session was powerful in helping me let go of a lot of anger and anxiety and have more neutrality about the abuse I experienced from my husband. She has a knack for knowing when it's the right time for EMDR and when I need time to process more immediate concerns. GTSD also provides very good customer service and I couldn't be happier with my experience there.

As a life-long learner, I appreciated the presence and patience shown by Diana and the other dyads in the room. I consider myself better-equipped after learning in lock step with my partner! We both feel better equipped to carry forward, even if times become turbulent. It was an incredible experience and one I'll never forget!

We just finished the August 2022 Hold Me Tight Workshop led by Dr Diana and it was fabulous:…read moreAmazing in every way! She is a brilliant teacher and presenter that made the material fun, interactive, and very practical. The weekend takes you through identifying your destructive painful cycles of hurting each other; helps build appreciation and gratitude; discovers your raw spots/ triggers and helps you own them; brings deeper emotional connection in the present moments; helps you forgive long turn injuries; gives you language to express your love and affection; and deals briefly and effectively about having a more meaningful and fulfilling sex life. The material is so powerful and intense but cleverly mixes in a lot of humor and variety. Dr Diana's selection of extra video content makes it fun and spicy: from Brent Brown cartoons to "It's not about the Nail." (Look it up) Bonus: There are about 14 couples and about 7 highly trained and effective (EFT/ Emotionally Focused Threrapy) therapists who are available to assist you in your 7 different "dialogues"- times of individual couples' work. We utilized 5 different counselors and the quality of their insights and assistance was through the roof! Maryam, Doug, Dale, and Mariah especially were outstanding in helping get unstuck and getting to the root of our long- established, stubborn, hidden issues that sabotage our happiness. Their expertise was offered so gently without judgment and added so much value to the weekend. I felt like this was what made the workshop soar above and beyond. The setting is remarkable! It is a beautiful location packed with flowers, hummingbirds, amazing trees, private seating nooks for privacy, and such a feeling of peace and security. I cannot recommend this workshop highly enough! We're already planning how to send our friends and kids and everyone we know to experience this peaceful, wonderfully intense, healing encounter in the hills of beautiful San Diego!

Man -- this is a tough review to write. Not because I don't have just world's of praise for…read moreAndrew's work, because the work I've down with Andrew over the last three years is beyond just mere normal words. It's hard to categorize the depth and wisdom that this man exudes...In short, I've participated in healing modalities, personal development, long-term meditations, and ample shamanic work for the last 18 years and I can unequivocally tell you that the work I do with Andrew is by far more important and impactful than anything else I've ever experience. I've personally invested roughly $500,000 in myself and if I had to choose between winning the lottery or working with Andrew, I'd choose the latter because money simply can't buy the level of experience I've received here. I always tell people, "it's hard to explain what he does, just go do one session and see for yourself" and usually that's enough to get an eye-brow raise and for those wise enough to go, they have often reported back to me that it was simply one of the most eye-opening experiences of their lives. I agree. It's also why I've continued to work with him and be under his mentorship, as is my brother, and my wife and countless friends because of the deep level of work here. I experience more peace, well-being, safety, connection and love in my life than I ever imagined possible. And this not due to "understanding" more by strengthening my aptitude in psychology or understanding the human machine. This is a deep and subtle art of learning to work with energy and divine intelligence that naturally heals the body and the mind. It's unraveled years of trauma and unconscious programs that no personal development ever came close to helping me let go of. In every facet of my life, and in every moment of my day this work continues to impact me and for as long as Andrew is willing to share his experience and wisdom with me, I'll be his student. As I say to my friend, "just go and experience it for yourself so you can find out for yourself." My unending gratitude and appreciation for the presence of this man in my life and the fact that some divine force thought I was ready for this level of work during this lifetime. All the love in the world for you and yours on your incredible human journey.

Energy work is not really my thing... or so I thought. Coming from a UCLA Psychology background,…read moreI'm incredibly science driven. But my meditation practice has opened up doors for me that I know science is yet to explain. After a friend had recommended Andrew to me multiple times, I finally decided to just try one session and see what I thought from there. JUST ONE SESSION... One session has now turned into 6+ and I'm continuing to see Andrew weekly. The first time I went in to see him, I didn't even have a purpose or really know why I was there. I just decided to give him a shot to see if he can somehow help me get into deeper mediations. If anyone came and told me that my life was about to take a DRASTIC change after seeing him, I would have laughed in their face. But my experience with him is undeniable. I've received and continue to receive an incredible amount of clarity about my life now, in addition to facing past traumas that I thought had already been dealt with. My spiritual practice, my intuition, and my perspective on life have all deepened tremendously. I quit a company I had co-founded because the glass was shattered and I saw how far away from my passion I had strayed and the stress was no longer worth it. Before I saw Andrew, I felt like my life had turned into a tornado and I wasn't really sure which direction I was going to end up in. After my work with him, I learned that I had created that tornado -- which is a beautiful lesson really because now I know I can create mountains. Even more, I know how to make those mountains stunningly beautiful.

You really get a sense that she cares about you as a person, not just a client. Jill introduced me to QPRX therapy, which FINALLY got lingering emotions that had been weighing me down off my back! It's a quick and profound transformation, and even those around me noticed a change in my demeanor. I highly recommend anyone to try, especially when you are looking to get back a sense of empowerment from previous trauma. I highly recommend working with Jill Silverman.

At 53 I found myself needing support from a mental health, physical, and spiritual aspect - as I faced and finally processed traumatic core wounds. As well as gaining tools to better understand, and navigate my CPTSD/Trauma. I was supported from a mental health aspect that included caring, compassionate, knowledgeable psychiatrists and therapists with different modalities (i.e. Brain Spotting, EMDR, Schema/Internal Family Therapy, CBT). Most importantly I had staff on hand that supported and encouraged me through my challenges, held space for me, listened, and always reminded me that I was safe at all times. I was supported from a physical aspect by Residential Aids that provided us with nourishing plant based meals made with so much love - and Nature therapy that included hikes, meditation gardens, and breathtaking walks along peaceful/calming beaches (Swamis is hands down one of the best - added pic). I was spiritually supported by the most gifted, caring, potent women that held space for all of me through somatic movement, meditation, breath work, different yoga modalities, shamanic work and informative courses. I will forever hold Kay and her exceptional staff close to my heart. I have so much gratitude for these women that supported me as I worked hard to reclaim my life - and as I remembered who I so powerfully and boldly am. That all of me is deserving to be seen/loved - and to take up space! Side Note - I am a Healer myself. I hold sacred space for women who are moving through trauma, and those going through chemo therapy as a free service to the collective. I take that Sacred Gift as a privilege and am protective of these brave warrior sisters that trust me with their most vulnerable parts. Hands down I would recommend this Transformative program to them!!

A Month of Transformation at Villa Kali Ma, The Retreat…read more.. Wow, where do I even begin? I just completed a month long in-patient Retreat at Villa Kali Ma for trauma, grief, depression, etc. I recently tragically lost my child and didn't know if/how I would ever feel even somewhat "whole" again. But honestly, Villa Kali Ma's Retreat was truly a life-changing experience. From the moment I arrived, I felt enveloped in a sense of calm and care that I hadn't realized I was missing. The setting itself is just breathtaking. The house is absolutely gorgeous - think serene and luxurious, but still incredibly comfortable. And the outdoor oasis? Seriously unreal. Multiple lounging spots perfect for quiet reflection, a jacuzzi that melted away stress, a beautiful pool (yes, with a waterslide!), and even a tennis court. It felt like a vacation for my soul. But beyond the stunning location, the real magic lies in the program and the people. The retreat offered a really comprehensive approach to wellness. We had daily mindfulness and meditation sessions that helped me finally quiet the noise in my head. The intensive talk therapy was so insightful and provided a safe space to really delve into things. I also absolutely loved the yoga and reiki sessions - they brought a much-needed sense of peace and physical well-being. And the nature outings? Just what my soul needed. Exploring the local beauty was so grounding and restorative. They even offered shamanic healing, which was a new and profound experience for me. Another amazing part of the healing process was done through art therapy with a fantastic art therapist, and all the art supplies you could dream of! She helped us work through our trauma in a unique way I didn't know existed. What truly sets Villa Kali Ma's Retreat apart, though, is the staff. Every single person I encountered was exceptionally kind, professional, and genuinely invested in our well-being. They created such a supportive and nurturing environment. And the owner? She is truly a gem. Her wisdom and kindness shone through in every interaction, and you can tell she pours her heart and soul into this retreat. She did yoga, mindfulness, and meditation with us three times per week, and even cooked DELICIOUS chef-worthy Vegan meals. It's clear she genuinely cares deeply about each person who walks through those doors. This wasn't just a break; it was an investment in myself. I left The Retreat feeling lighter, more grounded, and with a renewed sense of hope and clarity. The tools and insights I gained, along with the beautiful memories I made, will stay with me for a lifetime. If you're looking for a place to truly focus on your mental and emotional well-being in a supportive and stunning environment, I wholeheartedly recommend Villa Kali Ma's Retreat. It's an experience you won't regret.
