    I had sprained my ankle and was in a lot of pain. My doctor told me to stay off my feet, which I…read morewas doing but I was getting really anxious about when I could return to work or even how I was going to accomplish everything I needed to do that weekend. A friend referred me to Dr. Sterling. I found her really easy to open up to and trust. Dr. Sterling explained how emotions get stuck in the body and assessed where my pain was and how it was affecting me. She asked me questions about how my injury was impacting my life in terms of what it was limiting me from doing. She used some techniques I had never experienced or heard of before but after only 20 minutes, I was completely amazed. The pain was nearly gone!! I was able to put more weight on my foot. I felt lighter and I also had a lot more clarity about how I was going to handle my errands that weekend. Had someone told me that my pain would significantly diminish or that I'd be able to get a lot of clarity about how to prioritize my agenda, all within 20 minutes and without medication, I would have laughed. But that was my experience with Dr. Sterling. She's the real deal!

    I began NET because I felt very "stuck" in my own life for a long time - especially since entering…read moreadulthood. I try to have a basically positive attitude towards life and have goals I want to reach but somehow I couldn't put the pieces together to make things work the way I desire. Because of this I would have self-esteem issues and would cause myself so much unnecessary anxiety. I've tried some other forms of traditional therapy. I would make only small steps of progress over longer periods of time. Dr. Serena Sterling is very easy to talk to and trust. I feel like my treatment with her strikes a balance of someone professionally treating me for a problem and someone who is relatable and warm - unlike traditional therapy where there can sometimes be a wall between the doctor and patient. I was thrilled that NET wasn't like traditional therapy where I would feel accused of having the same old Freudian psychological cliches that I went into the first session feeling moderately defensive about. You will dig up some crazy stuff that you can't believe is still in there bothering you. I felt some issues release right away but after the third session I felt a marked difference in my overall vibe. Memories and emotions from the past physically left my body - I literally could feel the place they used to be. There was a vice-like tension in my chest for years that was 100% gone. I'm starting to feel more and more like a mature adult that can understand her emotions and work on the corresponding patterns rather than (what I would label myself as) someone who just can't get it together. For the first time in all the years of therapy I've tried, I am very confident in NET and in my ability to get to the place I want to be in life.
