So, I originally wrote this review almost four months ago. Julie LaCroix saw the review and…read moreresponded to it. However, did she do anything to make sure she answered the main element of the complaint (that she won't stop spamming me in spite of numerous requests over the years - including those apparently only decorative "unsubscribe" links in her emails?). No. Screen shot for proof. Draw what conclusions you will. Original Review and Comment on Response: I had two appointments with Julie LaCroix several years ago. I ultimately thought the sessions were a waste of time and (quite a lot of) money. She decided my skill set made me a particularly good fit for a specific type of job, and she disregarded my repeated protests that the job in question went against my moral values. She made up her mind and was incapable of hearing anything that didn't align with her first (somewhat arbitrary seeming) idea. She ended our last session by throwing together a ridiculous, typo-ridden resume in a couple minutes targeted at a position I had made clear I would not apply for. (Since that time I finished my graduate degree and am working in a suitable career.) After our second meeting, I was ready to move on and not give career therapists another thought. I have not had that luxury, however, since Julie LaCroix has spammed me and stalked me on social media ever since. Every couple years, I get re-added to her email list which I have never given her permission to put me on, and she has not responded to messages asking her to desist. She also periodically tries to connect with me on social media (she is undeterred by my refusal to connect with her, and, again, does not respond to messages asking her to desist in contacting me). I understand that she thinks networking will help grow her business. I don't understand why she thinks harassing people and ignoring them when they object would be beneficial to anyone. Given her systematic abuse of my personal information, however, I am no longer surprised that she could not process my objection to an unethical career. **Regarding Response** Notice the non-denial regarding the abusive email practices I describe. Also note the absence of a statement that she would address this matter and make sure I am not re-added to her list again in the future. The rest is a matter of he-said-she-said, but why, after 11 years, would I have reason to think of her--much less make random false claims in a review? I would encourage her to check her email (julie@julielacroix.com) to see that I have, in fact, contacted her multiple time over the past 11 years to ask that she stop re-adding me to her spam list. She has also found me years after using her (dis)services and tried to get me to engage with her professional profiles on Facebook and Instagram over the years. The dishonesty/lack of integrity in her response here is appalling.

Hi Juliet- I just…read morewanted to thank you again for all your hard work, understanding, and helpful advice that you have blessed me with during our time working together. I landed a position with one of the city government roles I was targeting here in Orange county! This role has been a great fit for me, and I enjoy and respect the other people I work with, and the people in the community that we serve. I had several offers after our work together and ultimately decided this one was the best fit for me. The work you did with my personality profile, career goals, and resume was extremely helpful and definitely had a lot to do with the number of offers I received. I also performed very well in my interviews not just because of my experience in this field but also because of practicing the questions and hypotheticals we went over together. You are a master of your craft and I will not hesitate to mention you if I have any other contacts who are looking for resume and or career coach professionals with your skill set. Thank you again for everything!

As a recent graduate in May, I found it difficult to ace interviews and navigate job searching,…read moreespecially when many opportunities required more experience than I had. That's when I decided to seek help and was soon recommended to Juliet. Juliet was incredibly helpful, working with me each week to ensure my resume, LinkedIn profile, and cover letters were in top shape. She even pointed out things I hadn't considered including on my resume that turned out to be valuable. When it came to interviews, Juliet walked me through the most common questions, offering constructive critiques on what I should and shouldn't say for each one. Her advice was super informative and helped me feel far more confident than before heading into interviews. I really appreciated how she pushed me out of my comfort zone, and noticed how her help made me stand out more to employers. Many of them even complimented how well-written my resume was! I'm super happy to say that I accepted my first job out of college a couple of months ago, and can't thank Juliet enough for her guidance and great advice!

I worked with Erika during a time in my life where I needed some guidance and felt lost on many…read moresubjects in life. I was someone who was not very spiritual, let alone seeker help through holistic means. However, over the past year I came to understand my spiritual side and knew I wanted to find a healer. I found Erika through Yelp and after researching reviews, her website, and having a free consultation I decided to book my first session. Since then I have purchased a few more sessions and also referred my sister. My sessions started with a guided meditation which felt incredible. There are thousands of guided meditations online (e.g. Youtube), but having one at the start is a session with Erika felt different and more uplifting. The sessions would consist of topics that I needed help with. The topics vary depending on the day and what I felt boiling since the last session. They consist of but not limited to life in general, personal relationships, work, past trauma, and personal development. Without getting into the details, at the end of each session, I felt like I had discovered something deep inside me that has been blocked. Erika helped extract whatever it is that has been giving me issues and provided me with guidance moving forward. She also me cut some knots that had been holding me back. Erika is very gifted at what she does. She provides a very comfortable and safe environment that allows you to share personal information that you may not share else where. All of my sessions were conducted online through zoom due to covid. I don't believe there would be a different if it was online or in person as I am still getting the same healing.

The session that truly changed my life was this year, when she helped me confront the inner hurting child in me. She spent so much time to actively listen to my issues, to hear the pain I was going through. She helped me unlock a younger version of myself, face her and taught me how to better care for her. I've taken those skills everyday in life with me since that session. It has positively affected my relationships, the trust in myself and has helped heal me. I've told so many friends about this experience and they were all in awe. Thank you Erika , I hope we have a chance to meet again soon. Wishing you life will always treat you kindly.
