First and foremost, Lena is the kind of person you want in your corner. Kind, intuitive, incredibly smart, and empathetic, she has the ability to provide guidance that meets you where you are and always leaves you feeling inspired and energized. She also is an expert in pulling out the wisdom we possess inside us, which means that I have developed a deep trust in myself and my own intuition - a life-long skill! Since working with Lena, my vision for my business has become clear, I know the next steps I need to take (or at least trust that they will appear), and I actually have fun in my work. Lena is the top Seattle and PNW life coach for a reason, and I'd recommend her to anyone who is in need of clarity and ready to create and fulfill their life vision.

To be honest, I was initially a little skeptical about how much Bryan can really help us improve…read moreour relationship. I thought the problems we had were complicated and difficult to resolve. But after only a couple of sessions, I was impressed. Bryan has a really structured approach to improving relationships for couples. It not only helped us better understand ourselves and each other, but also breaks down an healthy relationship into specific areas we can work on. He gave us useful "tools" we can use every day. Now many of them have become a natural part of our on-going communications and interactions. After working with Bryan for a few months, my wife and I have grown much closer. I believe Bryan can be a really helpful resource for many couples for want to improve their relationships.

Teresa is very astute and insightful. After just a couple of coaching sessions she had a clear understanding of my situation, my personality and my values.

Anchor Light Therapy is amazing! They provide a wonderful and welcoming environment that really…read moreallows you to relax and focus on you. I've been coming to Laura for a few months now and am extremely pleased with the progress that I've made on my journey to healing some deep wounds. I found their website and contacted Laura and was impressed with their seamless intake process and the ability to set up and get automated appointment reminders. They have been extremely flexible and have made it easy to adjust my appointments (which I had to do regularly because of the volatility of my job). They even offered remote sessions which I took advantage of when I traveled away from the Seattle area to work from a new location during COVID lock-downs. Communications with Anchor Light Therapy have always been pleasant, quick, and easy (e-mail, text, or phone). They have a beautiful space with comfortable furniture and a plethora of beverages options that makes it feel more like visiting a friend. Laura has provided caring, empathetic, and judgement-free insights into my problems (like the personal stumbling blocks that I put in my own way and negative self-talk) and helps me come to possible solutions (re-framing my perspective, accepting what cannot be changed, and recognizing why some parts of my life aren't affected but others are). After a session with Laura I look back and realize that my feelings are valid (no one should tell you what to feel - they are your feelings) and that helps me move past triggers with a little more grace each time I encounter them. BONUS: Anchor Light Therapy filed all the necessary paperwork to help me get back some money from the insurance company. I didn't have to do anything other than provide her with my insurance card. I started receiving checks in the mail because of their consistent upkeep with the paperwork filings for each session. I expected that I'd have to pay everything out of pocket and was prepared for that. Anchor Light Therapy truly is a blessing. I would highly recommend visiting Anchor Light Therapy and Laura. Thank you!

He helped me from struggling to getting a promotion! In one year! He is always prepared for every meeting and remembers everything we talk about. It didn't feel like a meeting with a coach/therapist. It felt like I was catching up with an old friend. I will more than likely continue my work with Shawn, not because I have to, but because I want to. Thank you so much for your help and support Shawn!

About a year or so ago I was searching for a career coach to help me find "the work I was meant to…read moredo". Prior to working with Shawn, I thought that a career coach would assess my skills and then tell me what role/job I should do. Very quickly, I learned that that was not how the process worked and I couldn't be happier to have been wrong. Shawns' process helped me uncover what truly makes me happy, what kind of team I want to be a part of, what kind of organization I want to be a part of, and most importantly what job responsibilities would make me happy on a daily basis. For anyone looking to get a better understanding of their skills and job desires and use that knowledge to find a role that fits what you're looking for, then I'd recommend working with Shawn. While I found Shawn via Yelp, I also found a handful of other career coaches on the platform. I chose Shawn due to his business background and the fact that he was a true "Career Coach". I had a business background so it felt like a good fit and I was looking for a "career" specific coach versus a "Life/Career" coach. I worked with Shawn (In-person - I used to live in Seattle) for ~6 sessions. He broke down each session ahead of time so I knew what work I had to accomplish before our meetings and what to expect to talk about in our meetings. The work was challenging and thought provoking, but it really helped me discover my skills, shortcomings, non-negotiable and ultimately led me to the work that I wanted to do. He helped me define what I was looking for in a role, including: team structure, day-to-day responsibilities, environment, reporting structure, and more. He helped me gain confidence that even though I didn't have a background in design, I had inherent skills and aptitudes for the field. One year removed for working with Shawn, I landed a new role in a new career. Shawn helped me find a career path and happiness in my work. Working with Shawn really helped me understand my abilities and clearly define what I was looking for. Once I was able to define my ideal role, I was able to go out and get it. All in all Shawn was a major asset to helping me find the role I'm currently in. I would recommend him to anyone searching for a career coach. Just know, the work is hard but very rewarding!!!!

She was able to make me feel totally relaxed so that I was able to follow her guidance easily. The sessions were not only relaxing, which helped greatly with general stress levels, but working with her allowed me to be myself, to let go and to trust that she was taking me through a transformation or shift. When each of the sessions were finished, I felt a clear sense of that shift and was able to go about my day, free of the emotions that were otherwise getting in the way. Very liberating! With confidence, I highly recommend working with Sage. She is empathetic, compassionate, and gentle but also thorough in getting to the heart of the matter and helping work through the issues at hand.

Sage possesses a deep knowledge of her craft, and even her name is synonymous with wisdom. A major component of her strength stems from the difficult challenges she has personally faced and overcome during the course of her lifetime. She draws upon this experience to bring a genuine understanding and sensitivity to my needs. My own journey has sent me through a series of hardships over the past several years (health issues, divorce, anxiety, financial loss, sleeplessness, a major career change, etc.) and every time, Sage has confidently helped me reframe my perspective of things. No matter what I am going through, she has strategies to offer me hope. While it is always up to me to actually implement the plans, Sage is an invaluable and trusted resource to design these blueprints for action. She motivates me to do well, to question my preconceptions, and to be action-oriented in my own life. I am truly fortunate to have found her and I am so grateful for her healing advice and counsel. Sage has made all the difference in the world. I highly recommend her.
