I was a small business client of the senior Erland Stenberg for many years and was pleased with his…read morediligence and accuracy. He retired and the business went to his son Steven Stenberg for a few years, who I did not have the pleasure of working with. Their employee Jon Newton bought the business and was initially helpful, requiring a substantial up-front fee to bring my tardy returns current. He later ghosted me consistent with the 2024 review by others, breaking appointments, not returning calls, not responding to emails. It appears that he is/was a 1-person office, relying on offshoring his work load, a possible problem for complicated accounts. Note that the positive reviews are in the past Stenberg era, not the present. Based on observed performance I would recommend avoiding Mr. Newton at all costs.

I called David today, after going through a rough patch yesterday when my small business was…read moretemporarily banned from Mailchimp. I realized it was time for some outside assistance. I can't rely 100% on my own limited experience. David Mitroff (the man in the picture) was extremely generous with his time over the phone. I told him abt a potentially risky sales contract I was considering. He took at least 20 minutes to go over with me how I can mitigate that risk and what I should do to prepare for negotiation. He did not have to do that. But he wanted to make sure I didn't get scr3w3d over. He didn't want to see me fail. For that reason, Piedmont Avenue will be the first place I come to once I'm ready for a deeper strategic conversation and more hands-on assistance. Will update once I have more to say. Thanks David!

Kirsten has helped me change my life. Using practical techniques that resonate with my unique…read morecircumstances, she taught me how to eliminate negative patterns at work and in my personal interactions. Initially, I was nervous and uncomfortable. Kirsten helped me feel at ease and was very open to feedback. If I felt misunderstood, I could tell her that in a very direct way and she would respond with a genuine desire to understand and get things unstuck. Kirsten is a great professional coach but where she really helped me is as a life coach. My path through life includes plenty of bumps and those bumps project into almost every aspect of my life. Identifying how this impacts me and those around me has been the most empowering experience of my life. Kirsten is flexible in terms of meeting format and can engage using in office visits or Skype. I've even Skyped with her from a conference room at work. Kirsten is refreshingly caring and unlike what I've experienced with traditional counseling practitioners. I never felt like she was watching the clock, disinterested or judging. She is always willing to answer questions via email with thoughtful responses. She is worth every penny and I highly recommended her.

I have been a meditation student and practitioner for over 20 years and still have found her techniques and approaches to be immensely helpful. Wish I had found her sooner! Her abilities to hold a sacred and clear space is really remarkable. I am so glad I took her class "Energy Management for Thriving" and have implemented her running energy mediation into my daily practice as it is quick and effective. I had always found hard previously to do a daily meditation practice. I have also used several of her techniques "on the fly" for protection and clearing. I look forward to working with her in the future. Stephanie Ansley Miller, Massage Therapist

I was first referred to Sasha back in January of 2017 upon the recommendation of my acupuncturist…read more I was in a life transition, nothing seemed to be working out, I felt blocked. I scheduled an appointment with Sasha for BaZi, Chinese astrology. The session was not only eye opening, but confirmed some things I suspected about myself. She gave me information about my past, my future path, characteristics unique to me, areas to focus on, and more. I found her to be approachable and extremely knowledgeable about BaZi and Feng Shui as well. She gave me "homework", which I followed diligently! To say that it was life changing would be an understatement! Months later, I was finding that my apartment just did not feel right. Something was off, some things dissatisfying. So I called Sasha to schedule a classical Feng Shui session. She now only worked with what she knew about me from our BaZi session, but did Feng Shui on my apartment itself, and it revealed amazing information about where I live. As it turns out, it is a great place for me to be. She spent 3 hours with me, focusing on auspicious areas and how to best use them for their intended Feng Shui purposes. I received concrete and user-friendly ideas on furniture placement , decorating, and how to maximize the potential I have here. I have found Sasha to be an expert in her field, and an incredibly knowledgeable and enthusiastic practitioner. She is so friendly and approachable, and I have the utmost respect for her. I see how diligent her practice is, and how much she loves what she does. I look forward to working with her every year!

What the feng? This lady puts the shui in my life's feng shui. I've used previous feng shui…read moreconsultants before her but she was the one who resonated with me the most. The amount of time that she takes to analyze and speak to you about your life and goals are priceless beads of information that she will discuss in your consulatation. Since I consulted with Sasha Lee in 2015 for my parents' home, she mirrored a lot of my concerns about that house. We set up a plan of action then that got me results, so when I changed residence, I knew I needed to consult with her again. She brought Finola with her again (on a crazy rainy and windy day!!) and they analyzed my home...asked me what my goals were and what problems may occur...and gave suggestions. Listening to these wonderful ladies and their suggestions, kept my head busy as far as the short term and long term goals and plans. Don't get me wrong, there is no magic wand that can zap away life's issues. However, if there was some sort of insight you could receive in improving your life's circumstances, why not try feng shui? There are some things you'd have to invest in such as self motivation, being open minded, time, money, and patience to see results. But if you're looking to try classical feng shui...because there is a difference between Western and Classical and I have tried both (I'd go with Classical personally), do an in person consult with her. I have tried to wing it myself and she pointed out on our very first meeting that I probably had a rough month since I placed my fountain in the wrong area...she was right. =) Sometimes there are things in life you can't change and other things you can. Why not change the things that you have control over?
