The day of my appointment to see Victor and Madison, I had a migraine. I decided to go anyway,…read moregiven that was the reason I was seeing them was to discover the root cause. I'm so glad I did. Madison treated me right away with a combination of essential oils and Marma point massage (sort of like the Ayurvedic version of acupressure)and I experienced nearly instant relief. She provided me a diet which was largely the opposite of what I'd been eating. Victor took my pulses and confirmed a lot of my concerns and quickly assessed stress and trauma were the root causes. It has been about three months now of weekly treatments, the new diet, and taking kundalini yoga classes at their sister business, Yoga and Ayurveda, in Cypress Village. I'm excited to hear I'm at about 50% healed, feeling more energized, less depressed, and physically MUCH stronger. This last push is really to hone in on my emotional health and resilience. Victor teaches classes on recovering from Trauma and the Vagas nerve which are so essential for everyone today. Madison's cooking and skin health workshops were also super informative. PCA is a local gem for people looking for natural, holistic healing. Highly recommend.

In meeting Victor and Madison I quickly came to know that these are two people who have truly devoted there lives to healing others. I have suffered from Psoriatic Arthritis most of my adult life and had become used to the overmedicated conveyor belt system of modern say health care. Meeting Victor and Madison was a breathe of fresh air. My first visit they spent and hour and a half with me. They went over my medical history, checked my pulses and generally cared about healing me holistically, not just suppressing the symptoms. I had always been told arthritis could not be cured but they opened a whole new world to me. I would not be where I am today with my health if it weren't for them!

I was battling with a 'sense of failure' as a father/husband/person due to what I thought was from financial pressures and a lack of empathy, accountability with my was breaking down my relationship with my wife. His counseling experience and deep knowledge of behavioral therapy issues related to 'Complex Relational trauma response' disorder that which induced my own defensiveness reactions and anger helped me dramatically. He provided me with my own personal tools to deploy on a regular basis. These helped me be nice to myself and appreciate my purpose and that I was actually doing my best to improve myself and provide love most importantly. Some of those solutions and tools such as meditation, mindfulness, self awareness/development created personal behavioral changes and coping strategies I now feel better about myself . A relationship tools I really liked was his own self developed 'Oh-Five-X Repair Framework' ( a one page document) which has provided us ability to create a safe place for trust, healing, and recovering from past trauma and experiences in our relationship and personal pasts. I've developed a deeper understanding and awareness of myself and Justin's actionable tools and strategies are much more than what most other life coaches or counselors can deliver. Its his ability to land these strategies/tools on point and get you to understand how to employ them to get better/improve/develop yourself With this guidance I've noticed I've become more empathetic, less reactive and more self caring so my family can continue to heal, and our relationship and welfare of ourselves benefits our family.

She specializes in Spiritually Transformative Experiences (STEs), helping people transition for pre-retreat and post-retreat to integrate their experiences into daily life, and those seeking solace around loss. Taylor is seasoned in cultivating and designing sacred spaces to turn inward through ritual opening our connection, nourishing our bodies, and releasing a river of creative energy. Taylor's intimate relationship with death and dying became the catalyst to developing a therapy style she calls Cit-Centered Therapy, a soul-centered approach, which is rooted in the heart-mind, and deeper Self. It's based around cultivating a space for the deepest part of our being to heal intergenerational trauma, grief, and suffering. She is grounded in her path to bring loving awareness to the parts of ourselves often held with judgment or shame transmuting pain into something illuminating.

I had a really wonderful session with Adrian. I came to him during a pretty stressful period in my…read morelife and had a LONG list of questions, and he was incredibly kind, patient, professional, and easygoing throughout the entire conversation. What I appreciated most was how relaxed and natural the session felt. It never felt stiff, rushed, or overly formal. I felt completely comfortable asking follow-up questions, challenging things I didn't understand, and going deeper when I wanted more clarity. Adrian really listens, and he takes the time to explain what he's seeing rather than just giving you a prediction and moving on. I also really appreciated his approach to astrology. He explained things in terms of timing, patterns, and probabilities rather than being overly fatalistic, which made the reading feel much more useful and practical to me. He also has a very modern way of interpreting BaZi and Zi Wei Dou Shu and takes your actual life circumstances into account rather than forcing everything into an old-school textbook interpretation. He was thoughtful, funny, down-to-earth, and very generous with his time and knowledge. At the end of our session, he even told me that if I had a one-off question later, I could simply email him rather than feeling like I needed to book another full session. I really respected that. I left the session feeling much calmer, clearer, and more confident about what I wanted to do next. I would absolutely work with Adrian again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a thoughtful, thorough, and genuinely kind practitioner.

I think the higher power wanted me to find Allison because it was a bit serendipitous how I ended…read moreup being her client through a business networking meeting. I'm just about to wrap up my ten sessions package and these last 2-3 months that I've worked with Allison have been more productive than the last 2 years. I had been drowning in fear of launching a business that I started. It sat in boxes until my first session. Fast forward to today, I have officially launched my website, taken sales, signed up for pop up markets, and am making new inventory and products nonstop. I have done more in 2 months than I have in 2 years for this business. Thanks to Allison, I no longer fear the unknown, or taking chances, or living this entrepreneur life. Not only that, she has given me freedom from childhood traumas and blockages that stood in the way of my success that I never even knew existed. I am so ever grateful to this incredible young woman. And, I hope she continues to share this beautiful gift and talent.

(Remember that?) I was under a lot of stress in trying to adapt to this new environment, and Allison coached me through the situations. Unlike therapy that I've had before, I don't just talk at the therapist. With Allison, we dig deeper into the underlying issue that continues to come up again and again but disguises itself as a different problem. I highly recommend her, and I already have to my friends and family.

I value integrity highly as a trait. While I cannot vouch for Matthew's psychic abilities (not…read morethat 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.

I do not feel Matthew is a pyschic. Of the 2 or 3 specific things he "guessed at", he got it…read morecompletely 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.
