I turned to Bannigan and Open with Care for advise in navigating the waters of open relationship…read more These were waters I that I had never entered and knew that I needed to turn to someone who could guide me through them. I felt very pleased with being able to turn to Bannigan during this time. My experience with Bannigan regrading this issue was like taking a ton of bricks off my shoulders. Before speaking with him I was confused and lacking in direction. The advice and wisdom that I received provided me with clarity a proper sense of action. There are not words to describe the genuine care I felt coming from Bannigan as I was telling him my situation.It was really amazing to sit with someone who was so willing to listen. I was able to fully tell my story, and then receive accurate applicable advice regarding the situation. Bannigan provided invaluable insight that left me feeling inspired to take on my relationship from this new place of clarity. I highly recommend the Open with Care experience to anyone who is willing and wanting to take sincere look at themselves and their relationship. What better way to do it than with the help of this amazingly grounded, insightful, and applicable experience. Thanks Bannigan! I so look forward to more time with you.

That session was so helpful to us that a few months later we went back for a tune-up! Couples require someone who is exquisitely listening and adept enough to catch the smallest reveal to help them to change subtle patterns of belief leading to behaviors that can damage the relationship. Bannigan's experience and innate perceptiveness allow him to listen deeply and gently challenge long-held personal myths in order for a new understanding and more effective communication to take place.

I've been coming to see Anya for a while now, and each time I bring in a new concern or struggle I…read moreleave feeling stronger and more confident. I fall into many demographics- a disabled veteran, a woman, a mother, a spouse, a business owner, often struggling with PTSD and everything else life throws at people- but Anya helps guide me through the highs and lows of it all. Anya has a knack for hearing you and helping you through your individual healing process in a way that gives you confidence and comfort in your ability to be successful in your journey. Whether I just need to hear my thoughts out loud and receive validation, address subjects from my childhood, receive feedback and support to keep myself grounded, or anything else I bring in to my session, she works with my natural responses to find a new perspective on what healing looks and feels like. The space Anya has so carefully and expertly created is calming, comforting, relaxing and welcoming. The location is so convenient for most of the Portland area, but I make the drive from Western Washington County because of the incredible experiences I get with Anya specifically. I highly recommend her (sometimes too enthusiastically ) to almost everyone I meet!

I honestly do not know where to begin in sharing my life-coaching experience with Carla - it has…read morebeen equal parts inspirational, transformative, empowering, and as time goes by and I continue to grow, learn and evolve, I find new ways that our time together has impacted me. Our program / contract was three months but almost daily since then I see ways that Carla's teaching along with her patience and her genuine love for a sister grappling with seachanges (me) has shifted my perceptions of myself and how I relate with others in such a life affirming way. More specifically, my needs were guidance and support as I entered a season of major life changes. Carla provided this in a way that warmed my teacher's heart - in weekly sessions we identified goals, struggles, behaviors and choices that do not serve me. Carla shared different practices to target different issues, gave praise when I was moving in positive directions (and encouragement when I was not). It was a lot, but my desire to take hold of my life and figure things out (to whatever point I was able) motivated me. And Carla motivated me, because she had such sincere belief that I could do this thing! Carla's lovingkindness to her fellow human being is her standout quality - it is evident in her honest responses to interactive journal entries, or when as a firm but gentle guide she drills down to what needs to be exposed and seen and understood. She wanted me to be able to do these things on my own. There is something very selfless in this approach - she wants me to have all the tools so I can go forward without fear, grounded in a sense of my own value and worth, understanding and nurturing my passions and my real authentic self. I'm still on the journey of change, and look forward to visiting Carla for a check-in / check-up soon. But the bottom line is that I cannot recommend her more highly as a life coach, a guide, and a friend.

I especially appreciate her guiding us through mindful meditations and when she offers Reiki. I am an artist, mystic and sobador and talismanist, and with many thanks to Carla, I am thriving in my endeavors. I can always count on Carla to remind me of my infinite potential and I appreciate her intuitive nature which always seems to offer loving light as i continue along path. I highly recommend Carla and I encourage anyone seeking life-coach guidance, intuitive readings, reiki or just someone who can hold space, to go visit with her for a greater sense of clarity and support. Mahalo and Aloha!
