Testimonials

Anxiety

Svetla worked with my 16-year-old son to help with competition anxiety. He was recruited by Gould Academy to join their snowboard team. Although well trained, he would become anxious in competitions. Svetla spent about an hour with him and taught him EFT techniques to relieve anxiety. He had his first Slopestyle competition this season last Saturday, and he scored third place despite a stressful week at school.

EMDR

Anxiety

I have experienced EMDR with other providers and NEVER got the results that I've gotten with Svetla. During EMDR sessions she "leave you in it" longer than other providers and really narrows in on the root issue, amazingly quickly. I wouldn't be where I am today without her help. I wholeheartedly recommend Svetla for anyone who had experienced EMDR or anyone just looking for quick and effective relief from anxiety.

Stress

Anxiety

Stress

I went to see Svetla because I was overwhelmed from my busy work schedule, so much so that I felt a heaviness in my chest. After ONLY 1 session, the heaviness went away. After the second session, I felt so much calmer and dealt with the stressful work situations in a whole different way. I highly recommend Svetla because she helps people get better really quickly.

Colleague Testimonial

Stress

After having my second surgery on my ankle, I was in a lot of pain. Svetla was amazing! She performed Reiki and not only relieved my pain, but opened my eyes to something new! Before I saw her, I could not drive my 5 speed car. The next day after the session, I was back behind the wheel. I am extremely grateful and would recommend her to anyone.

Referral

Colleague Testimonial

Svetla did wonderful work with a patient of mine who had a life-long, overwhelming fear of spiders. In fact, this patient nearly caused a car accident when she noticed a spider in her car as she was driving. I don't know what Svetla did, but after one session, the patient's fear had evaporated.
