She is empathetic, offers great advice and is very knowledgeable in her field. I'm not a very outgoing, wear my heart on my sleeve type of person but she makes it very easy to dive into the vulnerable places that need to be brought to light. She was placed in my path at a perfect time, to help me learn more about myself, uncover the areas where I am holding myself back and unblock me from living a life full of passion and purpose. For awhile, deep down that I was longing for something different but didn't know how to get there and Meredith is the perfect person to help guide you along your journey to listen to those inner voices and has made me feel like I am becoming a better, more free and true version of myself.

Her unique style allows you to go deep into all significant issues, uncover your actual fears, and overcome them. She guides the sessions in a compassionate, caring, and yet, effective manner. I felt real progress after every session. Thank you so much, Meredith; your coaching changed me and shifted my pathway in a great direction.

Lauren has an impressive range of intuitive gifts that she brings to the needs of her clients. I've…read moreexperienced them, and I know it is making a difference in my energy and focus. I came to Lauren with an old internal conflict that was keeping me from performing at full capacity in my professional life. In an amazing session, with her guidance, I was able to come to a deeper understanding of what was keeping me stuck. And with the personalized hypnosis session that followed, she created for me a new "script" that addressed and resolved that internal ambivalence. I certainly didn't go into our session expecting such a profound effect. My professional focus and energy since then has been greatly improved. And an bonus side effect: I don't have to get a mouth guard after all! Jaw clenching during sleep has disappeared.

I started seeing Lauren Archer a month ago to seek help with chronic, long-term insomnia. After…read moreonly 3 hypnotherapy sessions, I am sleeping better than I have in years and my generalized anxiety level is down to the lowest level I can remember since childhood. I am thrilled to add that other areas of my life have improved as well. I could name many but one, in particular, has to do with my artistic endeavors. With her help, I am easily overcoming blocks in my creative writing and musical composition that were holding me back in the past. What seemed difficult before is so much easier now. Lauren truly understands the creative process. With her almost uncanny ability to connect the dots between apparently different issues, and her genuine commitment to the desires and goals of the client, she has helped me understand that what I thought were problems before were simply possibilities waiting to unfold. I recommend Lauren Archer without hesitation to anyone who is interested in exploring hypnotherapy as an avenue for getting more of what they want from Life. Her office is in Bothell, but I consider her one of the Seattle area's secret treasures. But, from where I sit, she won't stay a secret for long.

I have been a client of Erika's for 5 years. WOW! That is a long time in the world of health and…read moreenergy practitioners. I first found Erika through word of mouth at my yoga studio. Two women were talking about a hypnotherapist that they loved, I overheard, asked them who it was and the rest is history. I started seeing Erika because I had been in a car accident in Seattle and was so anxious about driving in the rain, it was debilitating. My regular talk therapy at the time was not enough. Our sessions were in person and hypnotherapy and reiki in person at the beginning. I was able to work through my fears of driving in the rain in these sessions. My sessions with Erika have morphed into phone sessions of energy healing and life coach more than anything else. I love my sessions and feel like the concrete changes I have made in my life are noticeable to me and my family. I love getting homework and look forward to working on the changes I need to make. I have come a long way in 5 years and am excited to continue working with Erika. A lot of people think it is woowoo to work with an energy healer but I love it. I started seeing her because of an accident. She has helped me work through a death, surgery recovery, friend divorce, relationship issues, etc. Our phone sessions always leave me feeling so good and ready to get things done.

I have been working with Erika for 4-5 weeks now and I absolutely love her. I can't say enough good…read morethings! First, I want to address the idea of working with Erika remotely. All of our sessions have been remote and I find this to be a huge benefit. Being in the comfort of my own home allows me to relax and lean into the work in a way that I don't think would be possible if I were in an office or any less familiar environment. I also like the fact that I'm already home at the end of each session - normally I like to grab a drink of water and relax for a bit after each session so it's great to be able to do that. I highly recommend this option! Erika has helped me feel more grounded in my body, more confident, and far less stressed and anxious than I've ever felt. I have tried many different types of therapy over the years and I think working with Erika has allowed me to do some deep healing on a soul level that I just wasn't able to reach before. I am so grateful for her patience, reassurance, and calm guidance throughout our work together. I look forward to working with her further!

Julie is a nice person (which makes sense as she was a former elementary school teacher), but my…read moreexperience was that she is not a skilled life coach. Julie overpromised and undelivered. Initially, I chose her because of her 5-star reviews and because she claimed to be more available than most coaches, even offering daily text reminders and check-ins. I had to keep reminding her to text me and ultimately gave up when she neglected to follow through on her commitment over and over again. She failed to deliver accountability as promised and had very limited, basic tools that she repeated over and over again. Her coaching was redundant, disorganized, uninspired, and lacked clarity and focus. I hired Julie and paid her $3000+ for coaching services. I feel like I lost money, precious time, and energy. I felt so frustrated that we ultimately agreed to end our agreement two sessions early. A full refund would have been appreciated but Julie has a No Refund policy. Buyer beware. I have since hired a different coach who is significantly more skilled and have made more progress in the last month with my new coach than I did with Julie in over 6 months. YMMV.

Since working with Julie, I am a lot happier. My confidence and happiness infiltrates every other part of my life, which has not gone unnoticed by family members, friends, and colleagues. One major difference between now and then is that I no longer feel the need to avoid or reject my emotions. Now, I sit with my feelings, allow the emotions to wash over me. and think about why I might be feeling what I'm feeling... and so begins the thought work!

Kat Allen and the Four Aims Center has been so important to me and to my family…read more The Four Aims Center is really a multi-faceted sanctuary tucked next to a corner of the green Lincoln Park in West Seattle, easily accessible from Fauntleroy Avenue and all parts of Seattle. The center that Kat has built is professional but very personal and warm. It invites quiet, open, discussion and revelation. The practice benefits from the environment of the building and the neighborhood. Kat's guidance and wisdom and her quiet calm approach, benefitting both mind and body, is the reason that I am writing. Kat has the life experience to understand and help uncover layers of the daily struggle we all encounter, the depth to understand and guide through personal and family of origin explorations, personal history, and the breadth to help individuals, couples, and families. She does not judge, she guides, sometimes simply listening, often reflecting. Her repertoire includes deep personal investigation and teaching experience in yoga, meditation and mindfulness, and spiritual exploration as well as traditional counseling and therapy. Kat is incredibly knowledgeable about the standard experts in psychology and therapy wile also offering a broad approach and the ability to reach for the seasoned experiences of meditative and spiritual masters. The Four Aims Center is a unique environment to unfold personal questions and explorations in a peaceful and trusting setting. If you are exploring yourself and your life and looking for guidance I highly recommend you have a conversation with Kat Allen.
