I have had such an amazing experience with Ama La Vida. From the very start when I first talked to…read moreJustice Lawson, I knew this was the right move. Justice talked me through the whole process and was so honest and easy to talk to. I am so thankful to Justice for making the decision so easy. Not only was I able to build a professional online presence, but also build my confidence and self-love as well. Coach Peggy Wu is amazing, she brings her background as a life coach into her career coaching. When I started with Peggy I was struggling to see myself as a professional. We talked about more than just my job experience and she helped remove some of my mental blocks. Peggy has been such a great source of support in the past few months. I would email her on some of my lowest days and her words always put me back on the right path. I even did two celebrity sessions with Lisa Allie. With Lisa, we went through line-by-line of my resume and she told me what was good and what needed improvement. My resume has never looked better and people are often impressed. Lisa also helped me with LinkedIn and taught me useful tools for how to get the most out of it! on top of all of that, I have completed many helpful modules. The modules are like career-focused therapy. I really feel that everyone at Ama La Vida is focused on you as a human being. Your mental health and well-being will be prioritized. I can not put a value on the experience I got out of this service as I don't know where I would be today without it. I know this post is super cheesy but I wasn't paid to say any of this and have been sincerely blown away by my experience with Ama La Vida. When I first joined I didn't expect much but at EVERY step of the way I have been met with so much positivity and support.

Unfortunately I had a bad experience with Alma La Vida. I complied with all the exercises that were…read moregiven to me (personality tests, SWOT analysis, etc), and the coach I had most of the time did not read anything I submitted until the day of the session. I realized most of these things they could just have had me fill out before my sessions started instead of using my money to go over tests available online. My coach was not at all prepared to speak with me when our sessions started. The sessions ended up me helping her catch up on what she had missed. I thought regardless, she must have some ideas of what path I could take and could lay out a plan via email to help me through. No, she said I would have a hard time finding a job (even though it's literally her job to help me find one!). My last session in what I'd pre-paid for ended up being ignored. After asking around to a few other career coaches on LinkedIn, one of them actually gave me some free advice on next steps to take and said I'd been scammed. It's all about marketing yourself, and she suggested some fields where my specific skills could be really valuable. ALV said they would offer my last session to someone more suited to me, but my question was, why wasn't this person offered to me in the first place? Isn't it their job to pair you with someone who is professional and understands your skillset? I asked them if they would address any of the wasted sessions that didn't help me at all, maybe in the form of sessions through this better career coach. They said no, and said it was my fault for not knowing that I had a bad mentor. I was really upset. They said it's not typical of them to issue refunds, but they'd refund for my last session if I didn't want to use it. Really a complete waste, and they are indeed very expensive. They do not go the extra mile for their clients.

Although some time has passed since I first met with Lillie for one-on-one talk therapy, my…read moreexperience and subsequent results of her work are no less diminished. Lillie was a caring, insightful, and supportive therapist during one of the worst emotional periods of my life. My first session with Lillie was in late winter 2018 as I was battling episodes of depression, insecurity, and loss of self-worth due to a rough social relationship. I had never visited a therapist before, but felt that my day-to-day anxiety and misery was becoming too much and I should seek support. Lillie was covered under my company's employee benefits plan as a mental health specialist, and I met with her for a total of 5 sessions over the span of 2 months. Immediately, Lillie was welcoming and kind-hearted. She was an exceptional listener and a clear communicator. When we first began digging into areas of tension or disruption for me, my social relationship issue came pouring out in tears, and she listened intently the entire time. Never passing judgement, always seeking ways to ask intentional questions that helped me address the root of the issue, and what I could be doing to begin the healing process. I learned so many important lessons during my work with Lillie, but the three most influential ones that left lasting impressions on my mindset and lifestyle were: the power of being present, understanding the healing process, and turning energy inward. For the first lesson, Lillie would give me "homework" on how to practice was to be truly present in my daily life, as one of my biggest issues was that my mind was stuck in a negative thought loop and was fixated on the pessimistic aspects of my social relationship issue. She helped me break that loop and turn my consciousness to things happening right now, instead of things in the past that I agonized over. Secondly, she always made it clear that healing was a process - this was a difficult but necessary message that I needed to hear, and I'm glad Lillie conveyed it clearly. Even though I cried at the thought that I wasn't going to be "over it" anytime soon, that I would have more weeks of cyclical negative emotions, I learned that this is normal and the body/mind need time to absorb shock, grieve, process, and heal. Once I accepted that, I was able to take steps towards working through that process more effectively. Lastly, she helped me see how much of my energy I was spending on distraction from the true issue in order to avoid pain - I was focusing my attention and energy on everything I could find that would keep me busy, except the thing that needed the most attention: myself. This lesson hurt the most, but it was also the most effective one. I needed to sit with my emotions, with myself, and stop trying to fill the void with trivial things like drinking, going out, dating people I didn't really know or care about, etc. I needed to learn to be comfortable alone, which is a value that I still respect with the utmost importance to this very day (2 years later). I have Lillie to thank for that personal victory. Overall, Lillie is poised and professional, but also offers a safe and open space for you to do the most important self-work. Rating 4 stars instead of 5 only because I've never been to another therapist and don't have any other comparison. She was a pleasure to work with, and I would recommend her to anyone interested in talk therapy for any reason, personal or otherwise.

Her topic was unique and the concept will stay with me. "Divine Union through Lectio Divina" explained something I, and friends, had experienced, but had never been taught before. I belong to a home study group and for years I noticed that when I went back and reread earlier selections, not only did I understand them better but there were points in the teachings that "had not been there before". We used to joke and ask who changed my monographs? But the concept of Lectio Divina accounts for the same text, any text, speaking to you differently on different occasions. Liz provided opportunities for us to practice reading several poems and texts and listening to what each member of the small group heard. It is a wonderful technique to interpret and understand the text on a deeper level. Thank you, thank you, Elizabeth, and Infinity Foundation, for this wonderful workshop.

Just the workshops alone made me see and think differently, better. With the personalized sessions, I had Jody in my corner as my coach, cheerleader, and critic (in a good way). And it all made a real difference, not just professionally but also personally. I feel different. And people who know me have commented about that - I'm less stressed, more present. But, if you want empirical data... she does a 360 review with managers/peers/reports at the beginning of the coaching engagement and then at the conclusion, and I can tell you that she helped me move the marker to demonstrate my improvement in my skills including communication, engagement and leadership. All round excellent experience. Thank you Jody!

Per the recommendation stated on the Power Hypnosis website, I booked two sessions with Marc. The sessions were scheduled a week apart.

I now look at my life a lot differently after talking with him so many times. I am sad he moved away, but I am happy for him, and I am so glad I put in many hours of hard work with Michael. One of the things that sticks with me from our sessions is his gentle prodding to get me to understand and describe how I physically feel when talking about upsetting or uplifting emotional feelings. Where do I feel it? How does it feel. The words "bad" or "good" just weren't descriptive enough, and he encouraged me to more fully process my feelings. I really enjoyed this new take on therapy and it worked well for me in understanding my own feelings and telling others how I feel. This approach greatly improved my ability to communicate with people that are important to me. The tools I gained while working with him are priceless. It wasn't always easy, but I learned the most during the hard times. He was forever willing to give me and my wife another chance to connect emotionally and encouraged us to slow down and be open for each other. He is a talented therapist, and I have a feeling he helped a lot of other couples connect and communicate better than they ever had before.
