Making an appointment was so easy, which was great! However, apparently they charge $600 per…read moreappointment. I was shocked. I've never had to pay that much, even out-of-pocket. I was so desperate for help I decided I would try to ask to borrow money for that appointment and see if I could find different help going forward. If I couldn't borrow the money, I was going to cancel. I just needed help that badly. I was shocked when they charged my debit card several days before my appointment with zero warning. $600 is a lot of money. It took my entire paycheck. I've never been charged days before an appointment for any psych. I called the office in a panic for a refund because all my money was gone. I canceled my appointment. I was disappointed that the people in the office didn't really empathize or seem to care. They were very "whatever" about it. They finally said "sorry about that" at the end of the call but it was emotionless and felt like a disinterested shrug. It's now been 8 business days and I still don't have my money back. My account is overwithdrawn. That is very stressful on top of really needing mental health support right now. I just don't know who can afford $600 out of pocket. Next time, please warn someone they will be charged days before their appointment so they can plan ahead. And please show more empathy.

Anita has a way of cutting through the emotional static that confuses issues and gets to the core of what really matters.

I highly recommend Anita's servicing to any individual or couple seeking a knowledgeable coach to navigate anything standing in the way of productive communication and a successful relationship or individual journey.

I grew up in a family where trauma was the norm. I knew when I left home that I needed to get into…read moretherapy, so I started with a therapist at 17 years old but nothing really changed. That started my on my journey to find what would work, as I knew that what I was creating in my life was a result of my childhood programing. The short list includes; Lifespring, beginning and advanced, Transformational Workshops, Tai Chi, meditation, hypnosis, medications, enough self help books to line the entire United States, women's groups, Al-Anon, Co-dependants Anonymous, Adult children of Alcoholics, Chronic PTSD therapy, Brain wave therapy and more. So when I found Anita's ad through an internet search, I was doubtful, but willing to try. My goal was to move forward in my life with dreams that had lived in my heart for decades but just could not work on them because the beliefs about myself were so deep, they felt as if they were in my DNA. I was elated and stunned when after the first session I was able to start my work to reach my goals. Previously, I literally felt sick to my stomach when I thought about doing the work. After three sessions, I have a regular schedule working on my goals and enjoy the work! I have been in some type of therapy for 4 decades and nothing really shifted the beliefs that were under my self confident exterior. Even though I had earned multiple degrees and was successful in many areas, the belief that I was a "joke" and it would be dangerous to do anything that would bring attention to me, drove my choices, I never, ever felt good enough. Now I do and I cannot thank Anita enough. I don't understand how it works, but it works!

I spent nearly 8 months doing weekly therapy with Engracia. Engracia is a gifted therapist who is…read morecommitted to helping people. I found her approach unique since she has knowledge of and the ability to use more than one therapy technique with her clients. I was in a situation where I had become disconnected from my body and couldn't recognize how my body felt as waves of emotions went through me. Engracia used EMDR to help me reconnect with my body. If she found I wasn't responding or making enough progress with EMDR, she would adapt and try something else which I found very helpful. Engracia also comes from a place of personal experience and can relate to her patients trauma. The relational aspect of her approach helped me be more open and share authentically about past experiences. If you're considering EMDR therapy, I recommend working with Engracia. She is committed to helping people heal and move past old traumas.

I have absolutely benefited from our conversations!

She is compassionate,…read morecompelling, generous (with her time and in her work), open and eager to learn and do best by her clients, and willing to explore new ways to educate herself, help her clients, and improve the field as a whole. I think it takes true talent to be able to hold space for clients in the way that Veronica does - with incredible kindness, humor, confidence, thoughtfulness, and fearlessness. She gets in the trenches with clients and does so with ease and with grace. If you're conflicted about pursuing therapy and wavering about who to choose in the south Austin area, I cannot recommend Veronica enough. It's a choice you won't regret.

I instantly felt lighter, like my senses were heightened and I could see things more clearly. she gave me a new positive perspective on life. She helped me to see that my past doesn't have to haunt me and that I can accept and love myself. She also helped me with my repetitive, bad behaviors with relationships. Five days after our first session I got a new job and I no longer have to commute on the 17! I plan to go back as often as possible.

Erin is so professional and immediately I felt at ease. During the session, I felt more relaxed as we worked on my goals of having more joy in life with family, attracting more money and releasing old ideas. Wow! Erin's intuitive talents for healing blew me away! After our session I felt completely renewed in my body...like after having an amazing massage. But all she did was her energy work with a few touch points on my head. Truly a beautiful feeling. Same day: tightness and aches in my body were gone. I felt light and agile, and even my ankles (I didn't even realize they were sore from old childhood injuries) felt loose and more flexible! In the days following my session with Erin, I had a money emergency come up and was able to find $3,452 in a dormant account to help cover this unexpected cost. Before, I would have panicked with this type of stress...and now I honestly feel a sense of hopefulness and peace that helped me get through this challenge easily. Working with Erin has brought more joy and fun into my life. I've always been a positive outlook person but this is something more. Erin's gentle techniques and caring approach helped to release some old thought patterns and make way for new and better ways of thinking and doing. I also like how she gave me practical tools and questions to ask for creating. I highly recommend working with Erin at Source Energy, she's phenomenal and this unique experience could change your life!
