Dr. Feld helped me to navigate a challenging situation with my family. She is the utmost professional, bringing a wealth of experience paired with a kind and empathetic demeanor. In the end, Dr. Feld's guidance was critical to reaching a place of healing in a challenging familial environment. I cannot recommend her more highly! read more

I have seen Sheva on a number of occasions and have the highest respect for her. I chose to see her because of her experience and background, and have not been disappointed. She is proactive in her approach, often having suggestions and not merely listening to me and others talk. I strongly recommend Sheva and will see again if the need arises. read more

I wouldn't normally write a review for something so personal, but I have such respect and admiration for Dr. Sheva. Dr. Sheva has been instrumental in making therapy real and okay for me. She truly listens, making you feel seen/heard. She will challenge you and offer support, providing tools, recommendations, and actionable takeaways that are helpful and clarifying. You're empowered, more confident, and composed as a result. Dr. Sheva has range, due to her own unique background and deep academic and professional experience. We talk about work, stress, family, relationships, personal growth, and more -- wide-ranging topics never feel outside scope. From a scheduling/coordination standpoint, Dr. Sheva is prompt, communicative, flexible, and fair. Overall, I give an emphatic, 10/10 recommendation for Dr. Sheva to anyone looking to grow emotionally, become a better human being, and work with someone who so obviously values this too. read more

I naively went to Sheva for help to heal trauma, as I had been studying regression therapy through Brian Weiss's books, and saw she had been mentored by him on her website. I was in contact with a therapist abroad who also studied under Brian but I wanted to do in person sessions here in the states. I put my full trust in her and tried her imaging hypnosis technique and believed she wanted to truly help me. By the third session she recommended I called people from my past to try and recall pieces of my past, one of them being the therapist I mentioned. After discussing with them, they urged me to not see her again. Stating that she could have regressed me with the first session and that she had been scamming me. I have lost hundreds of dollars, I want to warn others that she is praying on people desperate to heal like me. read more

I began working with Dr. Sheva Feld many months ago and I am so thankful that I did. I was in a place in my life where I was going through some really hard things and needed support, guidance and a safe space to talk things through. I am happily on the other side of that difficult situation and I was able to handle things with more clarity and power than I could have imagined. I know that working with Dr. Feld has been a blessing to my life and I love my time with her as her approach has made it easy to feel heard. I know it's difficult sometimes to make a choice to seek out the counsel of a professional but I would strongly recommend Dr. Feld as it has made all the difference in the world! read more

Just a little history: My BA is in Clinical Psychology and have been a clinic supervisor for various mental health clinics. I also designed and oversaw development and operations of the first commercial online mental health clinic in the world, where I hired many therapists to staff the video conferences with clients we'd bring in through marketing. As you can see I am very pro therapy, but it's rare I find a therapist as competent and compelling as Sheva. I mentioned in a previous post that I had a keen interest in past life regression (http://www.yelp.com/biz/past-life-regression-los-angeles). I also cited a few experiences I've had with various therapists, most of whom were from different parts of the world or country. After coming back from the Middle East where I had my most vivid regressions, I called Dr. Brian Weiss's office (author of Many Lives, Many Masters) in Miami to ask for a referral to a regressionist local to me. They referred me to Dr. Sheva Feld. I called and she was very accommodating. I was completing coursework at Stanford and wanted some balance in my life. We set up an intake (2 hours) and it was one of the best sessions I've had anywhere. Sheva was very thorough, and although I wasn't looking for "therapy", helped me focus on a few items in my life that were out of sorts. After talking for a bit, she would put me "under". At the end of the session we'd discuss. Over the next few sessions, the talking started helping and although our sessions were spaced out over 3 month breaks, she was effective enough that the lessons from the hypnosis and discussions set me on paths to change behaviors, which is the primary role of a therapist and a blessing. We recently did our 5th session over this approximately 2 year period, and last time I decided to forgo the hypnosis in order to focus on some interesting items that had come up in previous sessions. In just 5 sessions, I've cleared an incredible amount of baggage, and I believe am a better person because of the combination of therapies Sheva uses with the hypnosis and discussion. And when i say discussion, i mean we talk. She's good. If you're looking for a therapist for regressions (even if you don't believe in past lives), or other therapies, I can't recommend her more highly. read more

Sheva is wonderful. She has a very gentle, compassionate approach that is very growth oriented and focuses on the process of evolving. She describes a new way of looking at the world. She enhances her practice with shadow workshops which provide intensive work on the deep and dark within us. She has the capacity to take you inside yourself to places you have never seen. Sheva has taught me how to look at the world with new eyes. She has taught me that the universe is conspiring in my favor and that my life does not have to look how I thought it would look. She taught me to examine myself and where my thoughts and fears come from and that changing does not admit defeat. This has benefited me because it has enabled me to change and adapt my behaviors more easily without being so judgmental about who I reall am. It's hard to find someone with Sheva's depth, credentials and talent. I recommend Sheva to everyone! read more

I can't speak highly enough of Dr. Feld. She truly has been instrumental in improving my overall health, wellbeing, and professional life. I sought out Dr. Feld for assistance with anxiety related to work and career development. She helped guide me down a path that empowered me and restored my confidence in my decision to follow my career passion and dreams. She's incredibly reliable and is exceptionally good at (figuratively) meeting you where you are on your journey and giving you the tools to pave a path forward towards success. I really valued the time we spent together and have her to thank largely for my decision to pursue a more successful and rewarding career. read more

I have seen Sheva on and off for several years both individually and in one of her workshops. I grew up seeing the world and everything in it as very black and white. Even as I've mellowed somewhat, through the years of work on myself, I have still remained very scientifically minded. Sheva approaches issues from so many directions, and is so open to different interpretations (e.g. different theories in psychology, astrology, spirituality, etc.), she really opens my mind and helps me to see outside myself and my own view of the world. I have found working with Sheva more comfortable and easier than with any past therapist. I have stayed with her longer and gone back to having sessions with her after breaks, unlike any other therapist I've seen. I also appreciate her lack of rigidity of scheduling. No once-a-week-every-week expectation unlike past therapists. read more

i had started to see dr. feld immediately after a good friend decided kind enough to share her with me. i didn't bother to look her up, i just scheduled an appointment with her and started sessions immediately. within the first session, dr. feld had me check myself and find answers to questions i'd avoided for years. since then she's been able to guide me towards deeper self discovery, discipline and acceptance. only about a year in when i referred her to a friend of mine did i look her up, and discovered the she too was a single mom (as is mine), and had overcome so many huge challenges in life, which has helped form her to be the grounded and insightful woman she is today. with her help i am optimistic that i've finally found some of the missing puzzle pieces that are the cause of the repetitive patterns in working and personal relationships in my life thus far, and can't wait to see how life is after more work and self development, as i become stronger and discover, enforce, as well as communicate my boundaries. she has made herself available to me in emergency situations, and i am incredibly grateful to dr. feld for her work as well as what she has instilled in me to do for myself, and others! read more

Sheva's workshops are original and effectively designed to give you greater awareness of the hidden depths you have. Her "Embracing the Shadow" workshops for women are particularly rich (see: www.asksheva.com) read more

I am eternally grateful for the counseling, guidance and support I have received from Sheva. Over time Sheva has helped me through a number of very challenging situations, both personally and professionally. Through our work together both my communication skills and confidence have improved noticeably. Most of all, I appreciate how Sheva helped me overcome my fears of a fully committed relationship, and in the process broke down the guard I had put up to ensure I would not get hurt. I know I would not be in this place today if not for Sheva. I can not recommend her highly enough! 2013 update - I have had the pleasure of attending a few of Sheva's workshops and the sessions I attended in the past 12 months, specifically, have been of great value to me. I feel much more in in touch with myself and how I want to show up in this world. My relationships with family members have grown immensely and I am working towards fulfilling a lifelong dream. All with the help and support of Sheva! If you have the opportunity to attend one of her workshops I highly recommend you take advantage! read more

I cannot speak highly enough of Dr. Feld. She is an extremely intelligent and experienced counselor who is kind and very easy to talk to. I thoroughly enjoyed my time with her and always felt safe in her presence. In addition, I always walked away with tangable tools, steps and ideas of ways to help improve myself. read more

I worked with Sheva during a recent professional transition I went through. It was a very unique situation and her outstanding counseling skills as well as her career coaching ones helped me move forward with my career. I am much happier now after being able to leave behind the worse job experience in my career and thanks to her help I have been able to explore career opportunities that probably I wouldn't have explored at this point in my life. She is very compassionate in her approach and always addressed what was important to me in each session. It was wonderful to work with her and I would recommend her and would go back to her anytime I need to. read more

I have known Dr. Sheva Feld for several years. I find her to be a wise and caring teacher, as well as a consummate professional---responsive and caring. She goes out of her way to effectively communicate and offer support. When I was going through fertility treatments, she was there for me offering encouragement and healing support to increase my chances of becoming pregnant. She called me on the telephone to make sure I was doing OK. I also appreciated that Dr. Feld has done a lot of volunteer work, and works while raising a daughter. These qualities add to her life experience and ability to empathize with others. It has been inspirational and refreshing to know Sheva, who takes much pride in contributing to the good in the world. See www.asksheva.com She is the best! read more

Sheva has been a great influence on me. Before working with Sheva, I had a lot of personal issues I was dealing with. Sheva taught me how to work through my issues as well as to look inside myself and make changes to improve who I was, which allowed me to get closer to becoming the person I want to be. I continue to work on improving myself and it all started with her help. read more

I did a two-day, 6 hours per day session with Dr. Feld and had the most life-changing experience of my life. Dr. Feld is completely non-judgmental, spiritual, and loving and will put you immediately at ease to open up about your experiences and feelings. I revealed things I'd never told anyone before, things I thought I'd take to the grave. She helped me "wake up" and get to know my true self. I left feeling powerful, optimistic, and equipped with tools, exercises, and frameworks to help me progress. I've already recommended Dr. Feld to several close friends. I cannot recommend her more highly or think of a better way for someone to spend their money and time. Dr. Feld will help you awaken to the love, peace, and happiness that is inside you. read more

I have tried to write this review I don't know how many times in the past year or so... and never been quite able to do so because none of the words I can come up with quite capture what I want to say. I think part of it is because I want to feel like I was at a stage of completion or somehow 'fixed' before writing it. But, of course, this is life! There is no completion, only more to the journey.... more lessons, more experiences, more challenges..... so, all I can say - which is all I will ever be able to say - is that working with Sheva (through regular sessions and Shadow workshops) was truly a life-changing experience. I truly believe that I was meant to meet her - to help me process and find peace with a whole number of things that had all come to a head prior to me moving to San Francisco. I arrived in San Francisco a mess on pretty much every level. I met Sheva soon thereafter, and had 2 solid years of working with her on some really deep-seated issues. With her help, I feel that I have grown more into my true self, the person I always knew was there but I hadn't given myself permission yet to fully be. I am slowly putting the inside on the outside, including the 'ugly bits' (which, by the way, are not ugly). I have learnt to hold steady while stating my boundaries, even when doing so threatens the status quo, and thereby puts key relationships at risk. It's scary! And it doesn't happen overnight, which is why waiting until some mythical time when everything is resolved, before writing this review, would be a little bit silly :) Instead, I will just say that I have experienced a deepening of understanding of myself; that I have found peace with myself in a way that has enabled me to start to face a 25 year-old family issue that I had previously been managing (unsatisfactorily) with distance; and that I have learnt how to see, acknowledge, and accept, what crazy curve balls life delivers into my lap with more compassion. These lessons - and upholding them - is an ongoing challenge; but that is life. While I first went to Sheva wanting to 'fix' something in a discrete way, and Sheva did indeed help me address those discrete problems, the work I did was more holistic and infinitely more profound. It was about redefining the way in which I live my life, every day, and how I form relationships - with everyone I come into contact with, and particularly myself. This is truly the beautiful gift of the way Sheva approaches her work and you as her client - and worth every penny and every minute spent, both in the room, and thereafter. It's now over a year since I moved away from San Francisco, and it's been a tough year - I've had to work really hard at times to uphold some of those lessons to make it through, but I'm still here, remembering the peace and contentment I had right before I left. This was in large part due to me reaching a particularly profound level of peace on a really deep issue that enabled me to feel ready to return home (to Europe). Of course, nothing stays the same and despite being ready to face those issues, the process of facing them has been (and continues to be) indeed challenging, emotionally and physically. Yet, through all of that I am more calm in the certainty that nothing stays the same, that my contentment will inevitably be in flux through time; that it was bound to be challenged for a while when I started to face these issues, but that it would also return if I stay committed to my self and my journey. Through all of this my ability to buffer the emotional challenges has been strengthened by the confidence I gained with Sheva in learning extra skills to strengthen my own ability to recover and grow from every experience that life brings. So - yes. Hard work: a lifetime of work, but enlightening, and an utterly irreplaceable gift :) I am eternally grateful and honoured to have worked with, and learnt from, Sheva. Thankyou :) read more

I too can't speak highly enough of Sheva. I've been working with Sheva for about 10 years and she has helped me overcome some long standing issues that have allowed me to free myself from them, to be more confident, present, able to be the person I want to be. She serves as both a therapist and a coach, helping me achieve life and emotional goals. She has also been available when emergencies arise. She's helped with issues with my daughter with a few family sessions when my daughter was in crisis. She helps me problem solve and to recognize patterns and progress I'm making. She's both practical and mystical, as the situation calls for. And, thanks to her, I have made lots of progress. read more

I have been blessed enough to have found and connected with Dr. Feld. My experience has been profound. I've always been a spiritual person and have been trying to deepen my life by making it more meaningful. I've been trying to find my purpose and decided to reach out for Dr. Feld for hypnosis and a possible regression. Dr. Feld kindly provided me with her thoughts and answers to many questions I had, she was firm in her knowledge and helped me see the upside of some "bad" situations. She also guided me through a meditation that was life changing for me. She never ever pressured me into anything and just guided with love. Without getting into personal details, I think that if anyone is looking for a deeper understanding of your life purpose, a more meaningful relationship with your own self or just some spiritual guidance, you will find what you're looking for with the gentle guidance of Dr. Feld. And there is no pressure to set several appointments, she goes at your pace, a rare thing these days!! I give her a 5 star review! Heloisa read more

Sheva helped me discover, understand and accept myself. With her guidance and understanding, I feel fulfilled and comfortable with both my strengths and the ways that I am different from friends and people I work with. And, as new situations and struggles happen, I often think of what I learned working with Sheva and apply. Sheva is the perfect combination of book-learning and practicality, which enables her to relate to all types of people in ways that work for them . She is never very far from my thoughts and heart, and when things get tough, I go back to get a little time with her so I gain balance and perspective. Working with her has truly changed my life. read more

Kind, warm, caring, professional, and highly skilled, Dr. Feld is a wonderful guide to help you discover things about yourself and assist in your journey to a better, more comfortable place with life. I recommend her highly whether you have a specific issue or merely a need for greater understanding. read more

I had the luck of randomly finding Sheva on Yelp a year ago. While in the search of a therapist, I was hesitant to begin my search blindly, so I came to Yelp. I was impressed by all of the positive and sincere feedback that Dr. Feld was receiving, so I went ahead and gave her a call. With no expectations, I went to my first session a week later and was incredibly impressed. I've seen various therapists at different points in my life and no therapist has been as balanced, honest, receptive, and intuitive as Sheva. Not only does she bring a true rational and direct approach to her therapy, but she brings a spiritual and calming energy that is very rare to find in this kind of field. I didn't want a "pill-pusher" or a passive therapist. I wanted a therapist to actively explore my issues with me and bring me to a higher understanding and knowledge of who I am. Well, simply put, Sheva has not disappointed in my attempt to reach these goals...I can't say enough good words about her...please give yourself the gift of self-reflection and experience the work of Sheva yourself. Not only is she a truly gifted therapist, but I highly recommend her workshops as well. I just attended one and it simply exceeded my expecations ten-fold. The workshop was honest, raw, and filled with unspeakable energy that has truly changed my life. Needless to say, I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Sheva Feld to anyone seeking an opportunity to evolve and confront their 'shadows' in hopes of making significant and positive changes in their lives. read more

Sheva helped me through two challenging life events, an abusive work situation, and the loss of a parent. In both cases, Sheva helped "cut to the emotional chase" in a gentle and insightful way. Her therapeutic toolbox is vast, and included offering appropriate challenges to problematic thinking, but again, done so in a gentle and insightful way. I never felt like I was wasting my time, or that she insisted on opening up a bazillion cans of worms to help me get through what I needed to get through. In addition to being a well-qualified and quite able therapist, Sheva is a genuinely good person who really cares about the client. read more
