    Carlos is someone I trust. He's been there for me in my times of need, and I never feel judged by him, only supported. I have dared to share things with him that nobody else knows about. He's helped me to see myself more clearly and to find better strategies for my life and relationships. I feel cared for and strengthened by the work we've done together. I know I am in good hands with him. He's professional and kind, and the work he does is effective. He truly makes me feel heard and understood while holding me accountable to the person I am becoming. It's as if he sees what's possible for me and who I could become even before I do. It's really inspiring and helpful. As a man with an engineering background, I'm used to leading with logic, troubleshooting, and somewhat linear thinking. Though Carlos is very good at critical thinking and problem-solving, he's really taught me a lot about emotional intelligence and the power of deep mindfulness and the application of mindset tools (such as NLP & Hypnosis) to generate creative solutions. I'm glad I reached out to Carlos for assistance in my time of need and will continue to do so as need be. I can wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone looking for expert guidance and support. Thank you, Carlos, for being there for me. You are a man with a big heart always wanting to help.

    He scheduled an appointment with me and failed to show up. No calls, no responsibility taken. Then lied about not having records, not receiving my voicemail, and not having conversations with me about it. Edit: That was a backhanded apology, very consistent with the experience I've had with you and your business so far. It's interesting the things you're denying. I have picture proof I scheduled with you, therefore would be in your records. I have the phone logs still showing my voicemail. You also called me days later stating you were returning the voicemail lol. I have that received call as well. Look, just accept that your tools failed and gave me a bad experience, wasted my time as I rescheduled. There is some fault there but I didn't actually you to that all that much. What really got me was your attitude toward it all. No sense of responsibility (your apologies are half hearted, showmanship). Your response now is another example of your character, lying to try to come off as if it wasn't your fault. Overall, it was just a tool failure, but your response is to it all, to deny things I have proof of, that's why I'm taking the time to write all of this. Just do better man. That's all there is to it.

    I debated long and hard as to whether or not leave a review here. However, after meditating on it…read moreand realizing how important is to get balanced perspectives on something so important as mental health, I find my heart leading me to sharing my experience here for others to consider. There were traditional therapists I found through my insurance provider. Licensed counselors and psychologists. No one was "clicking," and after battling with crippling anxiety, manic episodes, and depression, I bit the bullet and made an appointment with Jacqui. This was back in July 2016. I had a free phone consult with her first. Her voice was warm and her advice was concrete. However, she also pushed me to write a positive review of her book on Amazon. There was definitely a mercenary and marketing tone to her approach. My husband and I paid a substantial amount for my first and only session. We spent most of that time reviewing my past and writing out a "master script," in which I was to detail who I wanted to be with orders to record myself saying these self-affirmations, which were then to reviewed everyday. She smiled and said I would achieve the results I wanted if I purchased her packages, which would be "very cool," as she put it. She also determined I would need the maximum number of sessions with her given how vulnerable and agitated I came across. Then the strange stuff happened. I asked Jacqui for an invoice. I wanted to see if I could submit an itemized bill to my insurance company for out-of-network behavioral services. Jacqui called me right away and told me she didn't have a diagnostic code. She suggested I get a code from my psychiatrist. Then she called me back to say she was moving to North Carolina and could only offer video sessions. The price would remain the same. I declined, and thought, well that's the end of that. But it was not. She continued to call me. She told me I was one of the fortunate few who would be able to receive a free session with someone she personally vetted, a man familiar with "tapping." She promised to watch to make sure he was a good enough replacement. The whole process would take place in her Costa Mesa office. At first, I said yes, because hey, free is not a bad deal. Yet deep down the whole thing reeked of duplicity. Yes, Jacqui is warm and has a good beside manner. However, she made claims I don't think any mental health provider would assert. That may be the point; she is not practicing under a code of ethics. Healing Minds is where people go when they've run out of options. Ultimately, I refused the free session with her replacement. I chose instead to go with evidence-backed Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, a proven system that has reduced my emotional reactivity and improved my relationships. Given what transpired, I cannot recommend Healing Minds or Jacqui's services under good conscience.

    This isn't about me, this is about you. You are here obviously to seek help in your life. To…read moreregain some control, to let go of outdated, hindering emotions. There are therapist that only help people for the money. Therapist whom get jaded over the years and only see clients as numbers walking in and out of their office. This was a concern of mine. To pay a stranger to care for your problems for an allotted amount of time, and give you feedback and techniques to take home that may or may not just keep you running mental circles was a big concern for me when researching therapists. So let me alleviate them for you when speaking of Jacqui. I emailed her a standard net email I was sending to some therapist in the OC/LA area. Her response was the same day. We set up an introductory phone session for later that week. Within the phone session, I felt the sincerity that Jacqui was offering that I was looking for. Instead of just the usual psycho-spiel that most other therapists were giving me on the phone interviews, Jacqui actually let me talk, was not worried about time too much, and listened to what I was saying. That sealed it for me. We set up our actual session for the next week. I have never done professional hypno-therapy or EFT before, and I had minor doubts only because I know how my mind likes to distract itself, especially when being told to be quiet. The pace and direction of the session were all very well received though At the end of the session, I did see some immediate changes in my mannerism regarding the my own self defeating patterns. Jacqui's sincerity shined through till the very end of our session, and it was an added bonus to know that she still actively seeks her own betterment, not many therapists will admit to that. Instead of selling me an inflated amount of sessions, she suggested the amount she saw fit for my progression. I am done with my sessions with her, and I am very happy that I chose Jacqui. A bit of advise from me though, it is awesome that you are seeking help, but do not be addicted to seeking help from without. Any good teacher, therapist, psychologist, etc. will only be a great guiding post to your own inner answers and truth. They are not the answer, and they will not have the answers for you, they can only point you to your own, and it is up to you then to live within it. And Jacqui is an excellent guiding post! I am recommending my girlfriend to go see Jacqui, and anyone else that may read this review. Hope this has helped you with your decision! Cheers!

"When I went for my first appointment, I immediately felt at easy in this nice cozy location, especially when meeting Dr. Cynthia in person, she has a truly vibe that makes you feel, not only genuinely welcomed, but like if you are meeting with a close family member or lifetime friend, something beyond reasonable explanation, she is, no doubt about it, a truly gifted person that was meant to help people, she is extremely kind, respectful and knowledgeable, while making you feel understood and at peace with yourself. She is a great listener and knows how to interact in a soft and effective manner, with many responses filled with wisdom" During this time when I have already attended over 15 sessions, having started with hypnotherapy and switched thereafter to hypnopuncture, a unique approach from Dr. Cynthia where she combines acupuncture and hypnotherapy, I cannot other than reaffirm my original comments posted in my first review but on steroids, Dr. Cynthia has been a immense blessing in this healing journey of mine, I have no words to express my gratitude and joy to be able to have her on my side, she is one of a kind, with an innate optimism mixed with empathy, kindness and knowledge that makes you feel safe at peace and understood, always with a good sense of humor. The hypnopuncture experience has been wonderful, where body and mind are taken care with a holistic approach. I have been improving significantly on this complex healing process of mine and a big part of it is, no doubt about it, due to Dr. Cynthia therapy. All my gratitude and elevated emotions are aligned with the blessing of having such a special professional and human being on my side.

The reset was incredibly helpful. What was most surprising was that after my very first session, I didn't even notice the change right away--until the next night when I realized I had gone the entire day without any negative thoughts about studying. I felt more motivated, more focused, and the constant negative self-talk was simply gone. Still being skeptical, I waited before booking another appointment because I was sure the old thoughts would return. A full week passed, and I realized the changes had completely stuck. Because of that, I happily booked another appointment with her to work on other areas as well. The shift has been truly meaningful for me. I am so grateful for Cynthia and highly recommend her to anyone who feels stuck, overwhelmed, or held back by negative thinking.

I am a frequent repeat customer of hers because I know that she is truly gifted and can see the truth! At the start of each session, she'll ask if there's anything specific I want to focus on or if I'd prefer her to simply share what comes up for her. I always let her go ahead without telling her anything that's on my mind beforehand, and she consistently picks up on things happening in my life with astounding accuracy, down to details that only I would know. She picks up on things almost instantaneously and has an incredible ability to tap into energy and give accurate, insightful readings. What has always stood out to me is that she's not only able to read my energy, but also the energies and intentions of people connected to me, regardless of whether they're physically close or far away. She's often picked up on dynamics and situations involving others in my life that I was not aware of with surprising accuracy, and has given me great guidance on how to protect myself from anyone with ill intent. One of the things I appreciate most about Michelle is how straightforward she is. She's honest and direct and tells you things exactly as she feels them to be, which I really value. It's like she can actually feel whatever it is that the person she's tapping into can feel and relays that back so accurately. She is also very warm, humorous, and easy to talk to. I find myself laughing during our sessions and always feel comfortable no matter what because she is so down to earth. She is also able to tap into my ancestral energy and often reminds me of my spirit team and the protection around me, which always feels very grounding and reassuring. I always leave our sessions feeling lighter, relieved, and with a strong sense of clarity and reassurance. I truly don't know how I could have gotten through so many challenging times in life without her. Her wisdom, her guidance, and her empathy is what makes her so special. Thank you, Michelle, for always helping me heal!
