Once I disclosed that another company had already cleaned the room, I was told they do not like taking jobs previously cleaned by other companies and that I should ask the original cleaners to come back instead. The response honestly felt dismissive, and almost as if they no longer wanted the job because I had not chosen their company first. What confused me most is that the room still clearly needed cleaning regardless. It also left me wondering whether they would have accepted the job normally if I had simply never mentioned that another cleaner had already been there. I understand businesses can choose what work they take on, but the interaction felt unprofessional and disappointing after already discussing pricing and the scope of the cleaning.

I've known Maria Burch for over 12 years now, and she is an outstanding (such a mindful!) listener who can provide professional help when it is needed. I've seen how she's helped people outside of her professional duties (i.e. circle of friends) with the most genuine and caring attitude, and confidentiality. When you want to choose a reliable therapist, call them - call Maria Burch. Get to know her by asking questions and notice how you feel: - where did she go to school (UC Berkeley for her BA and MA) - what is her specialty (she uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to create a future for you) - has she worked with people with your issues (of course, she worked in Social Welfare for 10+ years) - what is her training (she's been a Spanish bilingual therapist for 10+ years) - is she licensed? (she's a licensed psychotherapist in California (LCSW 68087) and Maryland (LCSW-C 18796)) Make sure you tell her what you're looking for. I'm sure you're going to choose her as your therapist after one phone call because of her calm demeanor. Yes, her professional experience (and impressive pedigree) and her insight are all helpful; however, it's the connection you instantly feel (from your gut) that will make you take this first step - give her a call and book that appointment.

The result manifests as feeling much more lightness, joy, and ease. A huge added bonus from our work together yesterday is a great deal of clarity around my life purpose / work and where I will be focusing my attention as I move forward in my career. Wasn't even expecting that. What a gift. My insomnia has not been overcome yet but I trust it will be. (I'll add more as things evolve and I continue to work with Tanya...) Tanya generously shared a great deal of information with me via email after the session, as well as all sorts of insight immediately after the session. I think each individual must have an entirely different experience in their work with her - mine had much to do with ancestor trauma / attachment and past lives trauma. My highest recommendation is to give yourself a powerful gift and do some work with Tanya. I believe everyone's life can be greatly enriched by this sort of work. I don't think I've had another 90 minutes in my life that was as powerful and healing. I truly feel I have been rebirthed. Thank you, Tanya.
