Elite Connections is the best dating/matchmakers service out there. Trust me I looked. I met with…read moreSherri last year, and she took the time and interviewed me on my ideal match extensively for over an hour. She was very professional and yet easy to talk to like a girlfriend and goes the extra mile. I had few match from her, and a few from her other matchmakers and all the guys they've set me up with has been a true gentleman. Nothing but top notch, delight, young, successful, down to earth, professionals whom are just too busy with careers... to meet single just like me! Although I had few unfortunates where I was unable to return a call from an interests in a timely manner, Sena (matchmaker) reminded kindly, and because of her I've fallen with my dream guy who's everything I wanted and then some! I'm truly happy with Elite service and I would recommend to all my single friends bc Elite really cares about their clients and tried their best to facilitate a match of your desires. They even offer coaching and advices for those who need it. Yes, it took a little time to get exactly what I wanted but it was totally worth it. In reference to Mike C comment below, my experience with Elite is exactly opposite then what he has written. Sherri/CEO has handpicked her entire staff whose genuinely sincere, kind, and professional. They definitely have found what I'm looking for and then some!!! I'm impressed at the stories and pictures of happy couples that have led to many happy marriages. Although Elite Connections does NOT guarantee anything, they only provide the service to facilitate your ideal match @their best ability. Anyone who promised you any guarantee are total SCAM and run. I can assure you Elite Connections is not!!!

This by far is one of the worst matchmakers out there. The matches are a joke- one told me he paid…read morethe fee in installments as he couldnt afford the total. The men were definitely not vetted by the service. This is barely a step up from match.com but at a significantly higher rate. When I communicated my issues and requested a refund - even a portion, I was told nothing was possible. If it was worth my time to sue this service, I would. As it stands, just trust that it is a waste of your money and will be a waste of your time. And I have not confused this with another service. It is run by Sherri Murphy All - please be assured- I am a real person, with real experience with Elite connections NOT a competitor. Sherri- please have your lawyer contact me. Maybe then I can get my thousands of dollars back especially with the email you sent me.

I don't usually write long reviews, but I felt that I needed to for KC. She really took the time…read moreto understand my situation and troubles with dating and finding my life partner, even before speaking with her over the phone. We messaged back and forth prior, and she asked really insightful questions to determine if we would even be a good fit for her to help me, which gave me confidence that she wasn't just looking to grab anyone who reached out to her, but truly had a passion to help people find their life partner. KC really helped me to revamp and then fine tune my approach in what I was looking for, as well as helped me learn a lot about myself as well. I never felt rushed or not heard when speaking with her and I don't know if she has 500 clients or just a handful, but when she's speaking with you, I felt like I was the only person she was focused on, which was really nice. She has a process for really guiding you through step by step to helping you find quality dates and hopefully your life partner. The important thing was that I didn't feel like it was a cookie cutter journey, but I really felt like it was tailored for me. Since working with KC, I've gone on some quality dates, to now dating someone exclusively, to also feeling that I might have found the one for me. Thank you KC for helping me. I know I might not have been the easiest client at times, but you have truly helped make me a better person and helped me hopefully in the near future, find my life partner. For anyone on the fence, I would definitely recommend reaching out to KC and just speaking with her. You don't have anything to lose, but everything to gain and who knows, if you were like me, she definitely will help!

Working with KC was a great experience. She is kind, empathetic, analytical, intelligent, and…read morehonest -- exactly what I needed in a dating mentor. We worked through my past dating patterns and I had a much better understanding of my attachment style and how I interact with men. I learned a lot about myself through the process and by unveiling the meaning behind my behaviors, I now approach dating in a much more confident way because I no longer feel as lost and confused as I used to. After working with KC, I've now been dating much higher quality men and dating is no longer as frustrating or as intimidating as it used to be. I'm actually having fun with the men that I've been interacting with. I'm appreciative of the many insights that KC has imparted on me and very glad that I sought out her knowledge in the dating field.

OC Dream Date is hands down the best experience I've ever had with a matchmaking organization in…read morethe area! Susan Lee is such a pleasure to work! She hand picks your matches and really listens to what you are looking for. She is attentive and communicates well. She has made dating fun for me again! I was so tired of online dating! I felt like this was my last resort. OC Dream Date has been a refreshing experience. It's given me faith again. On my second date she matched me with a chivalrous gentlemen that I have fallen head over heels for. He too is beyond happy with Susan's gift and skill set! Things are going really well. I'm excited to see what the future holds! :)

Your reply is further evidence of your insincerity. You had no pre existing data base of women in…read moremy area. You contacted familty members of an existing male client and recruited his aunt, and the aunts friend. In another instance you Facebook stalked an annonym,ous woman through her friend. This is not building a list of pre screened women, this is scrambling to find random people with whom you have no existing relationship. When i voiced my concerns in a professional non aggressive and non abusive way, rather than hear me, and attempt to resolve the issue, you blocked me and denied access to your fb platform group, Your intentions may be good, however your methods and the results are unacceptable. I too have proof, not just from me, but from these woman that you "recruited". Just do better. That is all I ask. This service is a complete SCAM. They claim to have a database of individuals all over the county and state that they "vet" these people and screen them for matchmaking purposes. Not only is that untrue, they are not open to constructive feedback regarding members that are offered for dating purposes, and will block you if you dare provide facts regarding their poor performance. I have found their admins, and marketing team lead by Susan Lee to be unprofessional, chidish and complete amateurs in the area of locating screening and providing qaulity matchmaking services. DO NOT PAY IN ADVANCE. DO NOT USE THIS SERVICE, YOU WILL BE SADLY DISAPPOINTED.

I retained Julie's services for my daughter with regards to helping her pick a college major that…read morewould fit her personality and long term objectives. My daughter enjoyed working with Julie very much.

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.

Juliet is an excellent career coach!…read more I recently had a few career exploration sessions with her in which she helped me to define what exactly I'm looking for in the next phase of my career. Juliet believes in loving what you do and helps her clients to achieve that goal. She gave me many resources to access to help me with my career path in addition to listening to me, asking questions, and giving great advice. After three sessions I was able to better define what I was seeking career-wise, keep the momentum and motivation going and create a plan of attack in just how to land the next job. I was most appreciative of the extra time Juliet would spend with me (my sessions flew by with her). She also gave me information on local companies of interest to pursue...information that would have taken me hours of research to find on my own. I recommend Juliet for any career exploration needs. In addition, she spent some time reviewing my resume and discussing cover letters. She has a great instinct for how to sell oneself with these crucial documents as well as how to prep oneself for interviews. I highly recommend hiring Juliet.

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!

Thank you Terri for connecting me to my life partner from God…read more I was a client of South Coast Executive Club (SCE) and can recommend Terri and her staff for the great work that they do. I had been on many dating sites including POF, eharmony, Christian Cafe and a couple of others too. My goal was to find a lifetime partner and I had limited success with those sites. I ended up on a date with a lady who was in SCE and that is how I heard about it. After the initial meeting with SCE I was still undecided about whether it was right for me. After resisting for some time I became sure this was the path of Gods will for me. The quality of the women to whom I was introduced was much better than any of the Internet sites I had used. SCE may not be for everyone, however. If you are looking for a short term, intimate relationship then SCE may not be a good fit. If you have a narrow focus on your "type" and are unwilling to turn over the decision making to an expert, then SCE may not be a good fit. I need to emphasize this point. Terri is skilled at what she does. I questioned the matches at times but ultimately my current spouse is someone who never would have made it past my "pre-set" filters on who would be a good life partner. I was willing to turn over the process to SCE and follow direction which ultimately produced a result which was better than I could have expected. I personally met with Terri and her staff and consistently found their faith in God authentic. One final note on negative reviews here, notice how they kind of all sound the same and are missing a picture and have very few overall reviews? For me, that calls into question the authenticity of those negative comments.

Debbie and I just celebrated our 6th wedding anniversary. We met through Terri…read more We lived in different towns, went to different churches and weren't even on the same dating sites. There was zero chance we were going to meet without help. I met Debbie on my first match. Debbie had been with Teri for a few months before she met me. Keep in mind that since there are more ladies in Teri's database than men, men should have an easier time finding a match. And if Debbie had thrown in the towel too early, we wouldn't have met. For the one or two whiners (disguised under multiple anonymous ids), if Teri was really a scamster, how has she managed to stay in business so long and to continue to grow it? I think you have an axe to grind that has little or nothing to do with your interactions with Teri. Anyway, here is our timeline. I met Debbie on 10/28/2008, I proposed on 5/27/2009 and we got married on 9/5/2009. None of which could have happened without Teri. The money I spent with Teri was easily the best money I've ever spent.

I found Claudia from The Love Courses on Yelp during a very difficult period in my relationship. My…read morethen-fiancé and I were struggling, and Claudia reached out almost immediately after I posted my request. She was able to schedule us for an in-person session right away, which meant a lot during such an emotional time. Claudia is an exceptional therapist. She truly listens to both partners and makes each person feel heard and respected. At the same time, she isn't afraid to ask thoughtful, direct, and sometimes tough questions that get to the heart of the issue. While our relationship ultimately had several core challenges that couldn't be resolved, Claudia played a crucial role in helping us navigate that reality with clarity and compassion. She guided us through what she calls "uncoupling," allowing both of us to come to terms with the relationship ending in a healthy and grounded way. I'm incredibly grateful that we found Claudia, and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking honest, skilled, and deeply compassionate couples counseling.

Claudia is AMAZING. My husband and I went to her for our first year of marriage (pre marital…read morecounseling) to ensure we were starting our marriage off strong. It was the best investment we ever made. Claudia is a great listener, provides excellent tools, and is always in both of your corners rooting you on. She utilizes cutting edge research to help strengthen bonds and improve mental health. One of the many things I love about Claudia is that she herself is always learning and taking extra classes and courses to strengthen her own toolbox of resources. My husband said, "the tools she's given us, we don't even realize we use them anymore because it's like muscle memory now." Life is truly about living to the fullest, most peaceful and joyful route and while you may not even think you need couples therapy, I can guarantee it'll help even the strongest of couples!
