This was my first time working with a therapist so I wasn't sure what to expect, but I found the experience extremely rewarding and helpful. Linda was able to provide unbiased insight into my struggles and shared with me a lot of wisdom about the human experience. She knew how to listen for the real issues I've been dealing with, and provided me with a forum to be able to express myself openly and without judgement. She is very open minded and present which put me very much at ease. It honestly feels like you are talking to a really close friend. Everything about her is warm and inviting. I like that she has an office in Encino as well as in Westlake Village as I've seen her in both places, depending on my work schedule. I would recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for an excellent therapist. What she's done for me is nothing short of magical.

I was referred to Abi by my brother for help with me to quit smoking. I made an appt on Dec 17th,…read moreand as of Dec. 18th I am very proud to say I am a NON smoker.

No cravings, no mood changes .... just became a non smoker. So, if your on the fence if Hypnotherapy is right for you, try it... what do you got to loose? you will save your health and all the money that is spent on smoking each day!

I've been working with Renee since April of 2012, and our work together has been nothing short of…read moremiraculous--a divine gift. When we started on this journey together, this sort of side-by-side walk, I was completely bereft of hope and flipping around in the muck of my life like a beached porpoise. I had no expectation that I would be anything more than a "bottom feeder," which is how I had described myself during our first conversation. In fact, I was seriously contemplating suicide; I sincerely wanted to just disappear without a trace. I wanted my life, my history, my pain, my disappointment, etc to just be blotted out. Unfortunately, I simply could not see a way out of a seemingly bottomless unhappiness, and I was certain that my entire existence was a colossal mistake--a sort of cosmic joke. Working with the dreams that I was able to share with her, she helped me, by degrees, to "pick up the thread" of my purpose and place in this world. This is something that I simply did not think was possible. How could it be that talking about dreams in this unique way could buoy my spirits and dramatically alter my understanding of how and why I'm here? How could I come to understand that my being here was not a mistake in any way, shape, or form? Renee's dreamtending is not some facile parsing of signifiers (ie, daffodils mean renewal and salmon symbolizes fecundity); it's something difficult to describe, but ultimately full of content that speaks to and salves the soul. This work requires a certain amount of courage and fortitude--I've turned away from the responsibility of *knowing* time and again--but Renee is such a wise and gentle and comforting teacher and friend that everything becomes much easier to bear. There is so much to learn should I choose to--Renee makes no demands, asserts no pressure, and lets everything come to pass in its own good time--and I feel so blessed to know that Renee will continue to guide me and work with me and the gifts of the dreamtime. I always feel so lifted every single time we speak. Indeed, Renee helped me to open my heart enough that, after 39 years of being single, I finally cultivated enough openness and faith to allow someone to come into my life. He is a beautiful beautiful human being, inside and out, and we were recently married! Renee has shepherded me through the most amazing transformation of my life, and I'm sure there is much more to come.

Dream tending with Renee has been an intensely profound experience. I tell all my friends that…read moreworking with Renee has made me want to really be here on the planet, whereas in the past, I had been rather lukewarm about this life as a human being. I had engaged in many activities to change my orientation to life, but nothing has impacted me like this work. In these last 5 years of working with Renee, I have shifted from being often depressed and sometimes despairing to waking up excited about what the day might bring. I have become so much more awake to my life as a result of spending time with Renee and my dreams. The way it works is a bit of a mystery, but I have certainly felt "loved forward" by my dreams as Renee assures us dreams will do. I am always surprised by what the dreams reveal, and the wisdom and support they bring us. I have learned so much about the patterns in my life that no longer serve me. And I love how the dream time reveals our foibles in such a creative and often funny way. The work is deep, but also delightful. Renee is a truly a gift to all of us who get to work with her.
