Where to begin? I have tried everything from dance classes to yoga, Crossfit to running, boot camps…read moreand cycle classes. Nothing I have ever tried competes with the program at Genius with Dr. Sarah. I never, ever get bored of the classes. Each training day is different and stimulating mentally and physically. I feel totally engaged the entire time, and I really feel pushed to work hard. One of my favorite parts of the program is seeing real results. Not only are people commenting on changes in my body, but I can see the improvements in my speed and coordination from week to week. It is so exciting to see yourself actually change. I don't think I am getting faster, I know I am. The other great part about the program is Dr. Sarah herself. She is so knowledgeable and approachable. I feel fully supported and safe working out with her. It's so cool to have your trainer not only talk about the muscle chain you are working on, but also the part of the brain you are activating. Nothing like strengthening your glutes and your anterior cingulate cortex at the same time! I highly, highly suggest you give it a try.

I cannot say enough good things about Arolyn. I've known her for over a decade and have worked with…read moreher on and off during that time, and she is deeply trustworthy, grounded, and truly exceptional at what she does. She is easily one of the most skilled clinicians I've worked with, and arguably one of the best in the area. I drive nearly 3 hours to see her, and it is absolutely worth it. In just a few sessions, I've experienced more meaningful progress than years of traditional therapy combined. Her approach is precise, intuitive, and highly effective in a way that feels both clinical and deeply human. She also has techniques that have provided immediate relief for symptoms like tinnitus, which I had been struggling with for a long time. If you are considering working with her, I cannot recommend her highly enough. She has genuinely been life-changing for me.

After researching several hypnotherapists I called Arolyn and set up an appointment. She had a…read moreclear treatment plan with some room for more treatments if needed. Arolyn is also an LMFT which really adds to her effectiveness in knowing how to use a tool like hypnotherapy alongside traditional therapy. I used her for therapy sessions in addition to hypno. Her hypnotherapy technique is unique but in order for it to be effective, it requires you to really do the work (as with any therapy). But it is worth the effort! I found Arolyn to be attentive, kind and generous. She helped me work through various blocks to get around negative thought patterns. I now have a recording that is like my own personal power ballad. Arolyn tucked in all of these thoughtful little tidbits from our various sessions into this special recording designed to help lift you up and focus your energy and thoughts. That recording wouldn't have been as robust without her help and without us both spending quite a bit of time on it. I now listen to that recording most every day. With Arolyn's help, I learned to go into a deep meditative state that helped to change the waves of my brain and even more difficult, learned to change the language that I use. And most of this work was really done between appointments with the tools Arolyn showed me. It isn't a super power but it does take effort on your part. I plan to keep her number handy and use her again when needed. Thank you Arolyn for your support and guidance!

I began working with Ryan this past summer to see if it could help my competition issues. At that…read morepoint I had been struggling in tournaments, and feeling as if I wasn't living up to my potential in my sport as I had lost 15 straight matches in a row. I had done everything from increasing training, strength and conditioning etc but nothing was helping me nor giving me the results I wanted. I figured I would try something completely different and reached out to Ryan for help. Throughout our 6 months of work Ryan helped me identify attributes within myself that were holding me back while being a supportive coach to help me visualize and reach my goals. I no longer feel pressure nor anxiety in competitions, and if I do I have the recipe to help me deal with it. I'd like to think that if it wasn't for Ryan's work I would have never placed 2nd in a world tournament. Thanks Ryan, now I have the tools that can help me take the next step.

My 9 year old daughter who plays softball and volleyball started at the ROCK in December of 2017. She was matched with an awesome trainer who is also a high school baseball coach. The private workouts are specifically designed for her and they include a solid cardio component as well as drills/exercises that help improve speed, reaction time, pitching strength and verticals/push offs. In May I started training as well at the ROCK and am equally happy with my own results! Group sessions are also offered, and all of the trainers seem passionate and professional. I definitely recommend giving it a try!

Where do I start, It took me a long time to finally scheduled an appointment with Christina. I've…read morebeen dealing with anxiety for the longest time, childhood trauma and other things that I've experience in my life. Throughout the the years I tried counseling from several practitioners but never really felt a connection with anyone out there. I tried to deal with my anxiety on my own but at times it was overwhelming and it would only make things worse. My anxiety started to affect the people that I love the most. I didn't known what to do or who to reach out. Finally one day I started to look for help and came across Christina on this very cite. I started to read some of the reviews and I felt like I was reading my own story. I knew I had to call, so one day I did. They day I called I was very anxious, I was talking very fast to Christina and I was pacing in my front yard. Christina, with her soothing voice, asked me to find a place to sit and to start breathing slowly. I sat in the back of my tacoma and started to follow her instructions. I felt like gravity took over my body and for once, I felt very relaxed. It was like a jedi mind trick LOL. I highly recommend Christina, I saw her several times and for me the most important aspect about our counseling sessions was the fact that I felt comfortable talking to her about my personal life and all the thing in life I had gone through. Christina listened to me and gave me guidance and valuable information in just a few sessions. Thank you Christina.

I am incredibly grateful for Christina. I have been seeing her for over two years, and I am in awe…read moreof our process. I sought out Christina after a breakup and dealing with trauma from my family. My mind was small, my nervous system was a wreck and everything in life felt black or white to me. I thought I was getting help for just a moment in life but that was only the beginning... Fast forward to the here and now and my world has expanded beyond what I could have imagined. I have regulated my nervous system and I have found myself. I feel more connected with myself, others and spiritually. Christina has a way of feeling my energy the moment I walk into her comforting environment. She grounds me to become present in the space and then we work through my experience together. I feel so held within our sessions while also given space for my body to work things out in whatever way I need. I'm not always the best at communicating verbally, but Christina meets me and understands the way I express myself. She truly has a beautiful, organic and magical way of carrying out her practice. Nothing about the way she works is the stiff and one-sided therapy I have had before. In fact, she cares in and out of sessions. She makes me feel thought of with her messages here and there and her constant thoughtful energy. I truly think the day I stumbled on a review about her was meant to be. I continue to see her to this day, because I am having a beautiful awakening and relationship to LIFE. Who knew this hurt girl who didn't trust men would come to a place of finding herself? I am in awe.
