Future Success
Joni is an incredibly experienced and uber-qualified therapist..
[She] has worked with me on unpacking issues I have around separation, self-worth and things held onto from childhood.
I would highly recommend Joni to anyone who needs someone professional and experienced to work through things with!
Sara is a phenomenal therapist.
She is a very skilled and talented mental health professional.
My favorite thing is that Sara cares so deeply about her clients.
With BWRT, I’ve been able to overcome problems that I have been working on in talk therapy for 2 years. BWRT gets to the root of the problem and I feel empowered that I’m solving my problems.
It is like nothing I have experienced before.
I honestly have no major anxiety around today other than a few nerves.
Your sessions worked, and BWRT is amazing.
Still a work in progress- like we all are- but I’m wayyyy better than I was before. And more confident after BWRT.
Been crying out of gratitude! Thank You!!!
Today has been a lot lighter… Like a reset.
Basically, all my old drama went quiet…
When some of those people come to my mind, I see them as the present moment. The grief from the past feels muted. Almost as though seeing the present still makes boundaries but doesn’t have all the baggage.
Honestly relief 🙂 Thank you!
