Regina is truly a gentle soul who sees and honors the heart of who you are. From the very first…read moresession, I felt deeply seen--not just for my circumstances, but for my spirit. I was referred to her by a friend because of my breast cancer history and Regina's work around energy and illness, and I'm so grateful I followed that recommendation. Each session leaves me more aware of the past emotions that have been quietly holding me back from healing. She helps me uncover and understand how those stored emotions have impacted my life, my body, and my ability to fully move forward. Through our work together, I'm learning to release what no longer serves me and reconnect with the truth that I am a divine being--loved, held, and worthy of healing. I leave every session feeling lighter, clearer, and less tethered to my past. My goal is to live fully disconnected from old emotional patterns and rooted in my truth--my birthright--and Regina creates a compassionate and intentional space that supports that journey. She is gentle, kind, intuitive, and deeply intentional with my care. I'm incredibly grateful for her presence and the healing work we're doing together.

I found Regina by pure luck and just divine intervention. I've been a medical mystery for quite…read moresome time now, having had every kind of test run by numerous specialists. I've always been one to be open to anything if it works for me and typically Integrative Medicine is what bests for me. I was referred to a medical Nutritionist that specializes in helping chronic illness patients. She was so honest in the fact that she was not who I, in fact, needed to be seeing, but that I NEEDED to be referred to Regina. This doctor contacted Regina (who is also a Nurse Practitioner) about my case and I, too, immediately made contact to have a session with her. Regina was super responsive and returned my call within a few hours to chat and schedule a session. I immediately felt a strong connection to her and felt this was exactly what I needed in my healing journey. Regina is THE most kind and compassionate being, that can take you to depths of yourself and your past to heal past trauma and truly undo what is held within the body. She is very respectful in acknowledging one's beliefs and always gets consent throughout the sessions. I particularly love this and feel as though I am, in fact, a part of my healing all around. My work with Regina has been long distance, as I'm in San Francisco and she's in Santa Barbara, but this has never been an issue in getting the full effects of a session with her. She now has an office in Santa Barbara after relocating from SF. Sessions are intense and the body definitely responds, so prepare for the possibility of a "healing hangover." I've been working with Regina for about 9 months now and I don't think I'll ever quit her- there's always work to be done and she's simply the best! ***Regina also wrote a book that is very beneficial to any and everyone, "What Color is Your Medicine." With a last name like "Powers," Regina definitely possesses the powerful energy that goes deep and takes you deep into your own energy to simply heal and be your best self.

She is very engaging and interactive and extremely attentive. She is such a compassionate and thoughtful person and her ability to create a safe space for me to address some rather tragic and traumatic events in my past has been wonderful. She specializes in EMDR therapy, which helps your brain reprogram around a specific event and I can not say enough how SUCCESSFUL it's been! I lovvvve Monica and am beyond grateful that she is one of my most treasured resources to help me achieve my best life possible.

Monica contacted me right away and set up a time to come in. For the first time, she made me feel like someone was actually listening to me. She really did want to help me in my time of need and I could feel that she truly wanted to help and would do whatever it takes to pick me up and get me back on track. Without Monica, who knows what else I would have destroyed in my path. She was able to stabilize me, make me aware of what was the root to my downfall and how I can go about improving. I am so grateful for her and all the hard work she put towards me to get back on track. Her compassion, skills, knowledge, and availability really saved me and gave me an opportunity to save me, my family and my marriage.
