I value integrity highly as a trait. While I cannot vouch for Matthew's psychic abilities (not that it would dispel or prop up the many, many glowing reviews), I was not disappointed when I called him for a short consultation prior to a full fledged session(s). Matthew made the time to listen to my issue patiently and conscientiously before determining that I would be better served by talking to another professional he is familiar with in the field. I have seen other reviews (including of other mental health professionals) where people have been dismayed by this, but I found it to reflect his professionalism. Although it appeared he made a call that I wouldn't be a paying client at this time, he really took the time to listen and assess the relevancy to his work before making his recommendation. At the end of the day, that referral went nowhere (didn't at all return my messages) but Matthew retains my utmost respect as a professional and human being. read more

I do not feel Matthew is a pyschic. Of the 2 or 3 specific things he "guessed at", he got it completely wrong and of course, everything else was in very general terms that could apply to any living being. But you know what, that really didn't bother me at all! What was truly offensive was the number of times he checked his clock -- which was every time he finished a sentence -- during the 1 hour session I was paying him top dollars for! So I kid you not, he looked at his clock 25+ times...yes, the frequency fascinated me, so I started counting every time he checked his clock hidden in the other corner. Maybe if you see him as a regular therapist and you are able to connect with him then maybe he can be a good therapist for you. For me, I just don't see it. read more

I came to Matthew for a past life regression. I felt I needed some healing in the relationship department because I keep attracting similar relationship situations throughout my life that were not serving me. Since I had already spent many years in psychotherapy and still have the same issue, I wanted to take a different approach...the past life regression saved me hours of work. Matthew is an extremely professional practictioner. I instantly felt like I would be in good hands and was very comfortable in his office. Rather than go into detail about the past life regression process and procedure (Matthew will fill you in), I'll just say I was absolutely amazed at what came up! I felt safe and he made me feel relaxed so I had a very good experience. Matthew helped me to identify the exact issue that I had been struggling with and to get some healing around it. Now I am doing much better with relationships thanks to him. read more

I've had far too many "psychic" readings in my life, so have great basis for comparison. As Matthew is an intuitive and a medium and is actually able to communicate with spirit guides, as well as read energies (rather than using tarot cards), I felt that his reading resonated with me much more than most other readings I have had. He was spot on with what is going on with my career and his guidance about where I should be heading career-wise, was exactly what I was feeling in my heart (and he knew nothing about it). He also had incredibly poignant and accurate insights about my love life. He definitely did not simply tell me what I wanted to hear, but did tell me what I know (and have denied) deep down. After having a reading with Matthew, I came back for a hypnotherapy session. His methodology is excellent and his calm, soothing voice really allowed me to relax. He was very generous with his time and worked out a sliding scale for me, which helped immensely since I'm unemployed. He sent me a hypnotherapy recording to work with and I'm really looking forward to see how I progress working with that. I will definitely continue to work with Matthew and I'd highly recommend him to anyone who is interested in doing any kind of spiritual healing work. read more

Wow, Matthew is wonderful! I got a psychic reading a couple days ago. Since then I can feel how Matthew's insight has helped me shift into a deeper acceptance and a more serene state. I felt truly held by his warmth combined with his professional demeanor. And I felt seen, so deeply. This man is tuned in on a deep level! I'm really grateful for the work you do, Matthew. Thanks! I know you'll continue to help many people. read more

What a unique, creative, sincere and very observant therapist. He began sharing his observations without knowing my specific questions to begin with -- which impressed me a lot. He said a few words that convinced me that he felt some energy coming from me, such as nailing down my job title. His hypnotherapy opened up my eyes too. I was never able to experience anything quite like it, where I resisted visual imagery at first but it eventually came to me. He does magic; yet he is very human and approachable, unlike some traditional therapists I have met in the past. Too bad I am moving from SF and cannot continue this with him. read more

I saw Matthew for a past life regression recently and had a wonderful experience. I went in with pretty high expectations and all of them were met! For being in San Francisco, his office was very convenient and parking was easy. It was my first past life regression and though it wasn't exactly what I predicted, it was still a really enjoyable experience. Prior to making my appointment with Matthew, he spent a half hour with me on the phone answering all of my questions and also trying to explain various situations his other clients had had when undergoing a regression. He didn't try to convince me of anything that was going to happen, said not everyone has a visual regression, and didn't make any promises he couldn't keep. His professionalism is what led me to making an appointment with him as opposed to other hypnotherapists. I felt very comfortable sharing information with Matthew and he spent even more time with me than I had purchased, which was a long time! He also recorded my regression and sent the file to me that very same day. Personally I think my nerves are what prevented me from having a clearer regression, but Matthew was really patient and I am definitely planning to go back again, for another regression or one of his other services. read more

I didn't come to Matthew looking for a psychic, per se, rather an intuitive counselor / therapist with an open mind and alternative bent. I found Matthew to be more helpful and supportive to me than the traditional therapy I've had in the past. Matthew is a clear, easy-to-understand teacher with a gentle voice. He finds the kernel in concepts and breaks them down in a way that makes them easy any layperson to understand. That said, he does not act patronizing to those with more understanding and experience. For this reason, he's good at teaching the theory and concept of intuition and psychic phenomena to people at multiple levels and stages of openness, even in the same room. If you're seeking razzle-dazzle and easy answers, Matthew is probably not for you. While he's a kind and understanding person, he will be direct and not waste your time coddling and babying you. You'll hear what you need to hear but not necessarily what your ego wants to hear. Matthew is the real thing and ideal for those who really want to learn and do deep work on themselves. read more

If you're looking for a safe, welcoming place to explore and deepen your own intuition, connect to your own spirituality in a more meaningful way, to talk about those unexplained events in your life that you've always suspected meant something but were afraid to share about, or to answer the age-old question "Is that all there is?" for yourself -- look no further. Matthew's mixed-level Psychic Development course provides the perfect environment for all of these things and more! Matthew himself is a deeply gifted reader, whose years of training in both traditional Western and "alternative" forms of therapy enable him to guide his students (and his reading clients) through whatever issues they choose to focus on in their lives and/or in the world. Matthew treats every student and every client with unparalleled acceptance, understanding and compassion, wherever the student/client is on his/her life path. Matthew's classes and readings provide access to a deeper understanding of yourself, your life, and of the world -- not by telling you how it is, but by giving you the space and the tools to come to your own conclusions. read more

First, some context: I'd been feeling a little bit lost in my life, trying to figure out if I was going in the complete wrong direction, struggling to make changes for the better, and trying to get myself out of a funk regarding my career path and life goals. I'd had a couple of psychic readings in the past, several years apart, and had pretty good experiences, but no one that I absolutely HAD to see again. I decided that I wanted to try someone new (and perhaps local). I found Matthew on Yelp in the SF Bay Area and picked him because he had great reviews and was reasonably priced. In the end, I decided not to go in person but opted for a phone reading, which was contradictory to my original intentions of finding someone local. What can I say? It just worked out that I found Matthew -- I basically took a leap of faith and hoped for the best. So, I have to say, I got incredibly lucky because this may have been my best reading yet! I had a wonderful experience with Matthew during our 30 minute phone reading. Before I could reveal anything personal at all, Matthew instructed me to relax, sit with my feet on the ground (or crossed, lotus-style, which is what I did), and think about what my questions were (without speaking). In less than a minute, it's like he knew my life story. I almost feel like he'd taken the words out of my mouth, repeating things I'd said to my friends and boyfriend about how I'd been feeling. It was incredibly reassuring that he was able to tune in so accurately, so quickly! He even identified that there was a particular person in my life causing me a great deal of constant, daily frustration, who was the main reason for my feeling lost and unsure of my next steps. Again--I didn't tell him this, but that's what was on my mind, all day, every day, when I'd worry about what I was going to do. Although Matthew couldn't solve my problems for me (which I knew, deep down), his advice and compassion were extremely reassuring. He helped identify specific timelines in which I'd (1) find myself no longer dealing with/frustrated by the main person giving me issues, (2) find myself less lost/more confident about my life's path, and (3) feel like I'd actually figured out my career and what I WANT to do. Some of these were, realistically/unfortunately, several years down the line... but I mean, it really seemed like the truth, and not just what I wanted to hear him tell me. I appreciate that immensely. Bottom line: the mixture of practical and spiritual advice really set Matthew apart. I didn't say very much at all during the whole reading, and NOTHING at all before he tuned in. What he said was not only accurate, but also in line with what my "gut intuition" had been saying all along. Sometimes it's difficult to accept that life isn't laid out nice and easy, but Matthew easily identified AND helped me sort out my feelings of being frustrated and lost, while giving me a realistic answer as to when I'd pass out of this stage in my life's journey. The experience was completely worth it. If you're wondering about Matthew, give him a try! :) read more

Matthew is awesome! It was my first time getting a hypnotherapy session, and even though I was nervous going in, Matthew helped me feel safe and comfortable. He guided me through the session, encouraging me to look deeper until I got to the core issue. He was very professional, caring, and non-judgmental. I felt comfortable talking about extremely personal issues, and I was amazed at how much one session could open me up to a whole new spiritual space. It allowed me to heal from within, and I feel blessed by the information I gathered through my hypnotherapy session with Matthew. read more

I find that the best psychic readings are the ones that totally confirm what I have been hearing within and then also bring in totally unexpected tidbits, know what I mean? Matthew's reading totally did just that. I am truly inspired by Matthew's ability to communicate with so much clarity and wisdom on issues I deeply needed guidance on. I feel stronger, more trusting of myself, clued in on stuff I hadn't thought about and more prepared for possible challenges too, depending on my choices. He establishes a safe space and I continue to feel held and supported by his insights. Matthew's insight and wisdom was excellent and I will definitely return to him again when I'm needing guidance. I highly recommend his services!! read more

I was at a point in my life where I wasn't sure which direction I should be focusing on, and several things going on at once made it tough to focus at all. The timing was perfect for me to have a reading with Matthew. His background in counseling and his capacity as a teacher lends a wonderful balance to his readings. As a reader myself, I am looking for a point beyond the fears of "what if" and getting to the root causes and solutions. Matthew is able to access that point and bring through information that is both reassuring and informative. He is gentle and loving. He has a great touch for offering suggestions and seeing into situations with deep insight. After my reading with Matthew, I felt a huge weight lifted off my shoulders and could breathe deeply again. Since my reading, which has only been a couple weeks, things that he shared with me have already come to pass. I spent a lot less time worrying about those things in those two weeks due to Matthew's supportive and nurturing psychic perception. Thank you Matthew! read more

GIFTED. Matthew is absolutely gifted. I went to him for the first time last September, and was so impressed I referred several friends, who in turn were so impressed that THEY referred several friends, and so on. He is almost immediate with his reading of you, and shockingly precise within the first few minutes of what brought you to him in the first place. I've been to a fair amount of psychics and intuitive counselors and Matthew is divinely connected, I promise you. I'll keep going back to him again and again. I am not sure who wrote the review that used language so negatively against Matthew that it was taken down by Yelp, but that certainly speaks more on the person who wrote it than with Matthew himself. Psychics are in the peculiar position to be truthful while simultaneously being likeable, and for some people an honest assessment may be too much to bear. Don't let that sway you, if you go to Matthew, you will not regret it. read more

If you're looking to get a reading, Matthew is awesome! He immediately tunes into whatever important is going on in your life and he's very accurate and specific with details. And though he might bring up things you might not want to hear, but that you know are true deep down inside, he provides a warm and comfortable environment so you feel at ease to talk about it and to be emotional. But Matthew offers much more than readings. I've had life coaching sessions with him and have done two of his Psychic Development Workshops (more about those below). Both the coaching and workshops have been wonderful in helping me with personal and spiritual growth, which has helped me figure out a path in life that's right for me and staying on track. Intuitive Life Coaching: It's been very satisfying to go to a counselor who can use his intuition along with traditional counseling techniques (Matthew has a masters in social work). He also helps you, yourself, sense if an option you're deciding on feels right for you. With Matthew, I feel I've made real progress in making life changes, and his ability to tune into me seems to have made that progress happen faster! Psychic Development Workshop: Don't let this workshop scare you. I signed up with the intention of learning how to better tune into myself, so I was very intimidated by the thought of trying to read other people. But it was actually very non-intimidating. It's hard to explain these workshops, except that you really do learn to open your intuitive side using different techniques. I also found the workshops to be very healing and uplifting, and what I got out of them went way beyond my expectations. I would recommend taking the workshop more than once because the ones I took were slightly different, and I learned so much from both. And whatever skills you learn you can use everyday in your life! The other workshop students were great: of different ages and professions, but all felt connected to one another by the sole purpose of learning from Matthew (and from each other). Some of us get together regularly to talk about things and experiences (on the metaphysical level) that most people wouldn't want to talk about, and I'm grateful to have made these new friends. So.....I highly recommend going to Matthew for any of the services and workshops he offers, whether you just want a reading, or work on personal and spiritual growth, or if you need more guidance in making life decisions. read more

Matthew has taught me so much about how to use my own psychic skills. In his Psychic Development classes, I learned that developing and understanding my intuition is as normal and important as developing muscles in my body. His practical, down-to-earth philosophy and teaching style is a breath of fresh air in a field that is overloaded with bogus woo. As well, his readings are always honest and real, and even when it's not necessarily what I want to hear, the message is delivered with compassion and clarity. Can't recommend him highly enough! read more

I want to share an update about my experience. So, it's been about 4-5 months since I saw Matthew, and what he predicted for me during my reading was accurate. It was a "scary cool" kind of feeling when things started to change for me in the last few months and I thought to myself a few times, "Woah, Matthew said this was going to happen to me..." Regarding my career and a past relationship, he was spot on with his predictions. Once again I will say, Matthew is the real deal. I want to wait at least a year for another visit, but I will definitely be seeing Matthew again. read more

I spoke to Matthew Engel on the phone. He's not a psychic. There's no such thing. He's also an extremely unpleasant, arrogant, and in my opinion unintelligent, person to talk to. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you look elsewhere. This is MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE YELP HQ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Matthew was terrific. I went to him for a psychic reading a few days ago, though initially I was curious about a past life regression after reading one of Brian Weiss's book. After a brief discussion, I thought a reading would be better for now, maybe establishing a relationship with him to make a past life regression more comfortable (and thus more successful, just my own thoughts on that). Plus, it really is good timing to have had a reading at this point in my life. Let me state I didn't know him prior to the reading. I'm not getting paid to write this. I went in thinking, he's had good reviews on Yelp, so maybe he's the real deal, and if not it'll be just an interesting experience and just God/Universe telling me to trust my own intuition. Well he really was accurate AND in sync with what my own intuition. He mentions on his website that the better you know yourself and have done some soul searching (my words, not his exactly), the better the reading, and that really is true. This does NOT mean that you lead him into telling him what you want to hear,.. definitely not. He did most of the talking at first and then I asked specific questions about areas I wanted more information in. We touched on past lives a bit, and he also was able to communicate with a loved one who passed over, my cat who was my sidekick for 18 years. That may sound strange for folks who aren't connected to their pets that closely, but it was absolutely beautiful and healing. If you're thinking of a reading, definitely give him a try. I've been reading about, studying, and experiencing spirituality for many years. I'm a math-brained psychologist...I'm very logical, analytical on the one hand and open, spiritual on the other, so if I'm endorsing this guy he's gotta be good. PERIOD. :) read more

I have been working with Matthew for almost 5 years. He methodically, skillfully and thoughtfully helps me focus my energy toward solutions in my personal and business life. When the world gets clouded with noise and chatter, it is important to stop and listen. Matthew guides the process with complete mastery. read more

Matthew is the real deal! I have done numerous past life regressions and psychic readings with him and he has changed my life. He is so in tune, calming, and has great energy to work with. I have been going through a difficult year and he has been the catalyst for so much growth for me. I would highly recommend him. read more

I came to Matthew a few years ago to help me find my own voice and learn to listen to my own intuition when I couldn't figure out if the things that I was thinking were just things that were told to me by someone else, or someone else's expectations of me, or whether they came from my own heart. I dunno, something about his picture just radiated an awesome energy... and I went in for some private lessons.. and he taught me how to breathe. LOL. And then out of nowhere I had this amazing past life experience that helped explain some of the things that were going on in my life. And then I went on to take some of his psychic development classes and whatever this awesome infinite intelligence that is just became more and more "real" through direct experience. I feel more alive and connected to life and am very thankful for an awesome teacher. Matthew is one rad, bad-ass gentle soul. :-) read more

Matthew is so wonderful. My sessions with him have with him have helped me so much with my spiritual journey. The guidance and support he has given me with my abilities as an empath and clairvoyant have been life changing. His space is so calming and therapeutic. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of "spiritual pampering." I have gained great insight and feel a renewed sense of confidence in myself and in life's journey. He also offers great package deals for sessions which is great for anyone on a budget. I feel so recharged and motivated every time I leave a session. One of my favorite things about Matthew's sessions is that he created and recorded meditations specifically for me that have helped me to focus on my goals. I feel so blessed to have found him! Thank you Matthew! read more

I've worked with Matthew over the phone for readings and for classes. He may not be as "specific" as people are hoping for, but I have always felt that Matthew's readings/suggestions are comforting and accurate. He also makes fair suggestions that are more "reasonable" than most people I have had readings from (ie not saying MOVE to Jamaica, quit your job, run away with the milk man, etc.). I find the fact that he is a therapist makes his readings more real life. I also find the issues raised about confidentiality to be the very reason why therapists, psychics, and other professionals often don't use yelp: because when a client inaccurately portrays a relationship, practitioners can't defend themselves. read more

So far so good! Matthew's energy is very calming. I saw him at a time during a huge transitional time. I have seen psychics in the past and he mentioned things that they all have mentioned just in greater detail. Matthew was able to communicate some things that people would not have known regarding my family, careers, and love life. He even used specific years/seasons. I will definitely go back and see him and have sent friends to him. If you need some clarity or calmness check him out! read more

Matthew is a gifted and perceptive therapist. I chose to work with him because of his unique skills - he is trained in traditional and alternative therapy, and as such integrates a deep spiritual component in his practice, which is very important to me. I came to Matthew in a very difficult time and was looking to gain perspective and a way forward. He gently guided me and worked with my subconscious to reveal the root causes of what was bothering me and address them through a powerful inner transformation. He was attuned to what I needed at different moments and was able to tailor relaxing hypnotherapy sessions to empower me and reaffirm my inner strength and my belief in myself. I will continue to come back to Matthew in the future when I need a little extra guidance and a deeper look within. read more

After struggling with the pro and con's moving forward with a a few things,I went to see Matthew at the suggestion of a good friend who is a client of his. My session was short but he immediately went to the place I was struggling with and I almost didn't have to ask him any questions! He was spot on and articulate with his reading of me and immediately put me at ease. I will go back for further guidance on the issue we spoke about as well as a few others questions I have. I am looking forward to it! read more

I have absolutely enjoyed my personal sessions with Matthew Engel, who has given me very helpful guidance and answers to ALL of my questions, as I continue with my spiritual development. Matthew's guidance has helped me further understand my life's purpose. I highly recommend Matthew for anyone, who is interested in learning more about the purpose of his/her life and to develop a deep meaning of what they have experienced/endured with life. read more

I've worked with Matthew a number of times and always find his intuitive insights highly accurate as well as helpful. His background as a MSW is a definite positive addition to his abilities as an intuitive. It helps clarify insights of the more emotional level and it also helps 'ease' the delivery of information that may be more difficult to receive. Matthew is very easy to work with. He sets a space of trust and comfort which makes it much easier for his clients to open up. read more

Working with Matthew is like talking to a trusted and compassionate friend that happens to have a channel to your inner source. He creates a safe and nurturing space and the information he provides is always conveyed in a positive way. It is apparent he has your best interests at heart and is able to provide clarity and insight. He also has a gift for helping his students gain this clarity through his psychic development classes. He provides a supportive environment in which we can explore our own intuition, which becomes so neglected over the course of daily life. I can't say enough good things about Matthew. He is the kind of person I want to give a virtual hug to every time I think of him! read more

My first session with Matthew was a psychic reading. During the reading, Matthew channeled very accurate and specific information about a situation in my life. I was truly amazed! I kept thinking over and over, "How did he know that?!" The reading was very insightful and gave me the confidence to follow my own intuitive feelings. Afterwards I signed up for more sessions that included hypnotherapy, past-life regression, and traditional therapy. I also ended up taking his psychic skills seminar. All of these sessions ended up being very beneficial. And since Matthew records the hypnotherapy and past-life regression sessions, I can still listen to these sessions and gain the benefits anytime! Matthew is easy to work with. He is very professional and I sense that he has a high degree of integrity. I have always felt safe to explore any personal area using any of his various "tools" of hypnosis, traditional therapy, and psychic awareness. If you were ever even just curious about any of these areas, I would highly recommend a session. read more

I first went to Matthew for an Intuitive Reading on the recommendation of a friend who's also worked with him and sang the highest of praises. I was incredibly impressed. Matthew put me at ease immediately and guided me on how to open up my energy. Without my giving him any info at all, he quickly described a transition that I was going through in my career, a recent separation and some metaphors for what was going on. He described my ex with spot on accuracy as well as the timeframe for the demise of our relationship and the feelings and relationship dynamics that I had been experiencing all along. He also named some "possible pathways" for my career as a writer and teacher. I was amazed because the work that I'm building is off the beaten path - not the sort of thing that anyone would guess! Matthew told me to let him know if there was anything he said that didn't resonate so he could "ask the Guides" for further clarity. Um, I haven't had that so far but I appreciated his humility anyway! I've since been back to see Matthew several times and he continues to offer glimmers of insight into my higher path and validation for the true parts of myself that I'm working on integrating. It's like the voice of my heart speaks through Matthew! I've also done some hypnotherapy with Matthew to sort through some of the issues that came up in a few readings. I like that he offers several services. While most psychics just tell you the problem, he has skills to actually help you work through it! I wasn't sure if hypnosis would work for me, but it did. In several sessions, I broke through some very deep seated self-limited and self sabotaging emotional patterns that were impacting my relationships, career outlook and view of myself. Matthew combines a nurturing style, sense of humor and a way of being direct. He may not always tell me what you WANT to hear but he WILL tell you what you NEED to hear. I can't recommend him highly enough. read more

This is an updated review for my experience with Matthew as a psychic. I have not used his hypnotherapy or past life regression services, and I also have not taken any of his psychic development classes. After exchanging messages regarding my original review, we have both come to the conclusion that he and I were simply not a good fit for one another. I believe that he couldn't actually read me, though I came in with an open-mind and calm energy. (A previous psychic I saw had asked me to reduce the intensity of my energy before we started, so I tried to compensate for my natural alertness by automatically trying to create as calm and serene an energy level as I could (I wanted a good reading, after all! Maybe this was an error, though? Matthew described me as detached and unresponsive (or something of that nature) in one of his messages, and perhaps this could explain why we got off on the wrong foot?) I'm not sure how I could have discovered this mismatch before booking, as I read his website and emails prior to our meeting, and everything SEEMED congruent to me beforehand. However, once in session, it became almost immediately clear to me that we were unable to communicate with one another in any kind of productive manner. Although he posted the private details of my session in retaliation to my brutally honest original review, he took these details down after I communicated to him that I felt it was inappropriate for him to post publicly. However, please note the confidentiality disclaimer on his website, and make your own mind up as to how you truly feel about this. *********************************************************************************** Confidentiality: The content of your sessions will be treated confidentially with a few exceptions. These include: Perceived risk of harm to self or others, failure to make proper and timely payments, **efforts to correct misrepresentation of Matthew's services, and other reasons at Matthew's professional discretion** *********************************************************************************** If you're considering Matthew for a psychic reading, I would strongly urge you to make an actual phone call and talk to him first before booking, instead of booking through email. read more

I have had a total of 3 sessions (psychic reading, natal chart and hypnotherapy) with Matthew over the last 9 months. He is a talented and caring human being. He put me at ease right away On all three occasions he was able to pinpoint 'where I was on my path' at the time and provided insightful, compassionate and practical advise. I would highly rate him. read more

i am happy to have seen matthew for classes and consultation. i really appreciate the well-roundedness, depth of skills, and compassion that he brings to the table. i find him to be soft spoken, supportive, and easy to open up to. whenever i have a session with him, i feel very light afterward. matthew's style of teaching is easy to grasp. his psychic/channeling classes helped launch me into the next phase of healing and regeneration and have opened me up to new possibilities... and remembering--for this, i am truly grateful. read more

Matthew's psychic development classes are a wonderful place for people who are just beginning to explore their intuitive gifts, as well as for those who are more experienced. In private sessions, I've benefited from Matthew's expert guidance. He is accurate and compassionate. A great combination! read more

I first met Matthew Engel for a psychic reading almost two years ago. At the time, I was not convinced about the existence of any kind of psychic phenomena. However, I was feeling very stuck with my career, to the point that I was willing to seek help through unconventional avenues, so I thought I would give a psychic reading a try. Matthew and I sat down and he asked me to mentally focus on the issue I wanted addressed in the reading. After a moment, he said something along the lines "You are unhappy with your career, you feel like you are on the wrong path". That was EXACTLY how I felt, and that was the very issue on my mind! He went on to assure me that my efforts with my career had not been in vain, but I was not well supported by the energy of people around me at work. He also mentioned that I might ultimately pursue a different career path that I had anticipated. This puzzled me at the time, but in retrospect, it makes perfect sense. After the reading, I became more and more curious about psychic phenomena, and I eventually signed up for Matthew's psychic development class. That was a start of a major spiritual transformation in my life. I have been a student in the psychic development class for close to a year now. It has become clear to me that psychic and intuitive skills are not something that only few special individuals possess. They are a natural aspect of every human being's existence, but our current society does not acknowledge or support the development of these abilities. Matthew's classes have provided me with access to information and guidance I didn't even know existed. I feel that I now live in a more purposeful and heart-centered way than ever before and I have found a new sense of balance, satisfaction and happiness in my life. I have also had some individual hypnotherapy sessions with Matthew. This has helped me resolve issues from my past, and I would highly recommend this service as well. Matthew is a compassionate therapist, a wonderful teacher and an accurate psychic. I warmly recommend his services to anyone truly interested in personal and spiritual growth, sincerely wanting to discover his or her highest life purpose. read more

Matthew is a delight. His classes are, without fail, uplifting, enlivening, and, well, magical. Matthew himself emanates such warm, positive energy, and, unsurprisingly, attracts to his classes some really wonderful people. The combination makes for a rich experience in which everyone connects with dimensions of knowing to which they may be surprised to have access. Matthew genuinely honors each person's experience and empowerment in the development of their own intutitive skills. read more

It has been a wonderful experience with Matthew's psychic reading and classes. I went to Matthew for Psychic reading, Psychic development seminars, and Past Life Regression Hypnotherapy. The first session with Matthew was psychic reading. I was at a point where starting a new life, and his reading helped me a lot with getting a sense of direction in my life. I found his insights were accurate, and the guidance was very thoughtful. He was also able to connect with my deceased grandparents. It was so comforting to hear from them. He is very professional, kind, and thoughtful. I felt very comfortable at his session. After his psychic reading, I decided to register for his psychic development classes because I thought it would help me to find out more about my spirituality. After the class, I felt like I became a different person. The experience was like opening a new door to my spirituality and feeling a connection with spirit guides. The atmosphere Matthew created in the class was very peaceful and warm. I had never been to a psychic class before, but I felt very safe and comfortable. If you are interested in exploring your psychic skill, I recommend taking his classes. His Past Life Regression hypnotherapy was amazing too!! It was like learning where I really came from and solving a part of my life's mystery. I thought it could be a scary experience to learn my past life, but not at all - I felt very relaxed and peaceful during the session. It is one of the most incredible experiences I had in my life. Matthew helped me a lot with going through my life/spiritually journey... I really appreciate the work Matthew does. read more

I came in to see Matthew after doing some yelp reviews and was blown away with how well he read me in 30 mins. I came in hopes to find some direction with work, my break up, and a direction with myself in general. I literally had those 3 thoughts in mind and within 1 minute of sitting still and meditating without me saying a word he started talking about my transition to my new job and all the problems that I have in detail. He even then called out how I was going to take a specific new angle within my job that he described that came true. What was more amazing is he connected to a spirit guide of mine that 'just had to speak' and Matt was almost laughing at me because he said I knew who this was and it was someone sassy. My guide communicated through Matt all about why my heart was broken and how my ex has hurt me in and how it's changed me in certain ways and continued to tell me things that I never talk to about to anyone. It was truly amazing to witness. Aside from saying hello to Matt when I walked in I barely said anything during the reading and for him to call out so many things about me that he knew nothing about...well, that just shows you that this man is gifted. I've recommended many friends that have gone to see him and they have all had equally great experiences. Make sure that you come to Matt with a genuine purpose and not for some kind of 'fun psychic reading'. There is a carnival for that. You have to come with a strong desire and purpose for Matt to read you. It's how he can get all the clear messages from your guides to tell you. Come open minded and without skepticism and you will be amazed read more
