Like a soul ninja, she effortlessly & painlessly cuts through the "story" and teaches us how to allow our light to come shining through. Working with her is an exceptional gift that will transform your life, open your heart and set you free. I cannot say enough what a blessing Nicola is. We are so lucky to have her and this world is brighter because of the beautiful work she does.

I have experienced Nicola's amazing work in both private sessions and in group settings. For myself…read moreI was seeking help in relationship, particularly my relationship with money. Nicola's supportive presence created a safe space to explore the root of my unhealthy relationship with money. With her caring nature and authentic reflection she assisted me in dropping the barrior that was blocking the natural flow of allowing myself to receive. Before my session with Nicola I was unaware of how much energy I was using to push money away from me. During our session I instantaneously experienced a level of relaxation and appreciation for money I had never felt before. And the next day I even experienced finding money I had "forgotten" about in random places around my home. I know that it was because the barrior I previously had towards money had been dismantled and I was finally able to receive.

How do you even begin to leave a review for someone who has helped to change your life?…read more I have been procrastinating leaving this review, because I don't know how do to justice to her impeccable skill and generous demeanor, other than to say that Maria is simply a terrific therapist. Of course, everyone has a style that suits their needs best, but Maria is amazingly adaptable and solution-oriented. She is a no BS kind of person, but with a gentle delivery. I wish I could sponsor everyone in the world to have access to this quality of therapy, because it is truly one of the best investments I have ever made in my life. In working with Maria, I feel like have finally developed the skills to be in the drivers seat of my life, rather than being stuck reacting to old dynamics/patterns/trauma, and struggling to cope with various mental health challenges, etc. With Maria, therapy is a practical and enjoyable pursuit, and I often find myself laughing with her during the hardest or moments, or when I had been on the verge of tears 2 seconds prior. She keeps me from taking myself (and life) too seriously, while also helping me to heal some of the deepest and hardest things I have pushed under the metaphorical rug. It feels like you are speaking to an old friend, and I never feel judged at all for anything that I say. She often makes time for me when I need an extra session, and I really appreciate the feeling of someone having my back in this project of getting a handle on my mental health, rather than that I am going at it alone faced with random or impersonal doctors who just want to prescribe me something. Maria worked with me earlier this year at a time when I was really contemplating seeing a psychiatrist for a prescription, but wanted to try consistent therapy first. She was supportive of whatever my decision was, and I am happy (!) to report that I feel like a completely different (more "stable" haha) person a year later, just from our weekly sessions. While I have done many therapy sessions over the years, before this year I have never done therapy consistently for long enough for it to make a lasting change in my habits and thoughts, and the difference I feel is amazing. Whereas this time last year I was really struggling to cope with my depression and panic attacks on a daily basis, I have both raised my baseline and my ability to cope with the ups and downs of depression and anxiety to a point where I no longer experience panic attacks frequently at all, and have healed lots of old pain that was weighing me down (and am no longer considering medication at all!). The virtual sessions with Maria are really easy and convenient (and I love the occasional virtual visit from her two adorable dogs during the session). Also, I have recommended Maria to many friends and family, and she has helped them a great deal as well. My mom, my sister and my cousin have all benefited so much from their time with Maria, and as a consequence Maria is very well versed in our family dynamic, which is super helpful in allowing her to offer a more wholistic family-therapy style approach. It is also worth noting that Maria is very focused on establishing your goals and meeting them, and not just stringing you along for sessions forever (though I was never in any rush to taper-down our sessions!). At her urging, we regularly adjusted our weekly sessions into bi-monthly sessions and then monthly sessions, and finally, switched to an as-needed basis as I progressed in my treatment. I feel lucky to have Maria on my team, so to speak, as I navigate the craziness of life and mental health! :Thank you for all your help and wisdom :)

Our family has been seeing Maria as a family and couples therapist for almost a year during a…read moreseries of stressful, difficult family transitions. She is a rock star therapist and a straightforward problem solver. Maria has a unique ability to get right into the issues (emotional, financial, etc.) and offer solutions that make practical sense. She makes it all seem easy. She's intuitive, warm, honest, creative and. . . often times, funny. We are blessed to have found her.

My husband and I have worked with Mr. Goren for a few sessions. Mr. Goren is very friendly and so…read moregood with kid (we had to bring our 14 months along since she doesn't do well at childcare). We are both impressed by Mr. Goren's knowledge and find the tools he provided us to use at home work wonders! The relationship between my husband and I has been improved ever since we started seeing Mr. Goren! Highly recommended to anyone who is looking for a family/marriage counselor!

The very first session, I left with something that was absolutely life changing-in the first 1 hour…read moresession. It's absolutely amazing what this man will help you do. I was looking for a legit therapist in Monterey, and I found one. Make the phone call, get the quote, talk to him so you can quickly find out how he can help you Do whatever you gotta do to see this guy if you want a good life. He's not in it just for the money, and I am so happy with how he works for you so that you get all the solutions to get around your big problems. I hope that you make a good decision. One regret I have is that I didn't connect with him sooner. -Stay strong, hope y'all find a way to get the same kind of results Eric has helped me get P.S. because of Eric, you will encounter this [...you'll say, "well this sucks,(pardon the language haha) I don't need a therapist anymore. I got it all figured out. Now I am who I've always wanted to be." Connect with this guy so you can get that feeling you want] P.P.S. Thank you for all the relationships you've helped me create, and nourish. Thanks to you I can genuinely be a happier man everyday. You know that's not the only thing you've helped me with but that alone has made every session way more than worth it. Words can't express, thank you Eric!
