I felt compelled to share my experience working with Vivian, my therapist. In all honesty, it's been an incredibly positive journey and I believe she deserves a proper shout-out for her amazing work.

Vivian is terrific in every sense of the word. One of the things that really stands out is her professionalism. Every session with her feels well thought out, organized, and aimed at my personal growth. But, what's even more valuable is that she brings an element of personal care to her work that really makes you feel supported and understood.

She's not just ticking boxes, she's genuinely invested in her patients' well-being. Her kind and compassionate approach have made each session something I look forward to. It's clear that she deeply cares about her clients, and that's something I think we all need in a therapist.

What's really important, though, is that her methods work. It's one thing to feel better after a session, but the long-term improvement I've been experiencing is something else. Since starting with Vivian, I've seen noticeable changes in my mental well-being and day-to-day life. Her approach, techniques, and guidance have been incredibly effective and it's made a real difference for me.

I'm really thankful to have Vivian as my therapist. The progress and positivity I've felt since I started with her is beyond what I had hoped for. If you or anyone else is looking for a good therapist, Vivian comes highly recommended.

Vivian is a very intuitive healer with deep compassion and heartfelt caring. Our sessions were in a safe and trusting atmosphere with an open minded approach. It allowed me to reconnect with my highest wisdom in finding a more effective and helpful attitude to my issue.

After the sessions, I had an "A-ha" moment that I was grateful for. Vivian's holistic healing service is highly recommended for people who are looking for alternative healing options to help them navigate their mind-body map and improve the quality of their lives.

Vivian is a wonderful healer. She’s very knowledgeable, resourceful, and very committed. In my Life-Centered Therapy session with her, she helped me to become empowered and gain a new perspective. After the session, I felt a significant shift in how I feel about myself. My pain was reduced greatly and my energy level went up significantly. Highly recommended!

Vivian is such a great therapist that she explains the steps she's going to take, and what the purpose of each step very clearly -- the explanation helps me to relax and get into the mode. She would let me find the answer and truth myself while giving adequate guidance to direct me to the right path. She listens to me patiently, and her compassion touches me very much.

Her caring continues even when the session is over - the wisdom and valuable advices she gives me truly helps me become better each day.

I am so glad that I met Vivian, through her working with me, I am able to heal the inner child. Some of the event I have totally forgotten, yet it has strong impact on my life ( like heavy load on my life, prevents me to move through life). After healing this wound, it changes my energy level. I have less baggage to carry. More energy to apply to day to day living. More appreciative of the joy of life. Vivian,Thank you very much for all you did for me. With Lots of love

Vivian is a GIFT! With the blend of her keen intuition and her different modalities she uses, she has helped me release blockages (with ease) that I didn't know held such weight in my life. Her presence is calming, supportive. She's a great listener. I am so grateful for her.

Working with Vivian was a pleasant experience. She is very caring and patient. She paid attention to what I was there for and what I was telling her. I have tried many different modalities in the past, Hypnotherapy included, and they were all helpful in different ways. So when I was referred by a friend about what Vivian does, I decided to give it a try.

The time it took was similar to Hypnotherapy, but it was all done in conversations using muscle testing (because our body doesn't lie, and it remembered more than our brain). She helped me to see what was blocking me, why that happened, and the lessons I learned from my problems.

Although I was crying during the session, I was surprisingly calm when the session was over. It's been a few days after my session, now I felt I am more clear and more aware of what I need to do in the future if I want to get different results.

If you have traumas from the past or negative beliefs about yourself, I highly recommend Vivian. Let her help you to see what can be changed and your life will be very different when you walk out the door.

I had a session with Vivian today and the shift I feel is incredible. She incorporates many modes of interventions and healing. Getting to the root cause of the trauma that creates repeat patterns that no longer serve. I’ve been smiling all day. I feel lighter, happier and more self confident. Thank you so much Vivian!! 🙏♥️
