I work with clients of all walks of life. Straight, gay, transgender, single, married, parenting, vacationing, retiring, corporate, non-profit, and self-employed. The majority of my clients are women. I also coach couples, although they are not yet featured on my testimonials. The thing my clients all have in common is a deep desire to look within matched with a grand vision of life. The following is a small snapshot of current and past clients.
Case Study Jaqxun is an incredible, warm, resourceful, and motivated young man. He has brought himself through significant personal hardship without reaching out to a professional for help. As he realized that his body was calling for investment and care, he knew that he couldn't take on this task alone. Our contract was around supporting him through the process of addressing his health on the physical plane. Here’s his story in his words:
Before working with Mindy: I was living with chronic pain and struggled to feel comfortable in my own skin. I was very resistant to any form of physical self-care that might have helped- it all seemed too overwhelming. I was making my living as a nanny, taking care of two infants; lifting them and holding them for 9+ hour days. I had previously loved caring for kids, I'm passionate about early childhood development. I was having trouble maintaining my relationships and doing my work as a result of the physical stress I was in- my pain would come out through my communication. It had gotten to a point where I was crabby most of the time.

After working with Mindy: Through the nine months of our ongoing partnership, I have peeled back layer after layer of my resistance towards physical self-care. I was able to see how some of the decisions I made at a young age were affecting me now. With Mindy's help, I've been able to bring my internal dialogue to an adult place. I was finally able to say that I wanted to be well, no matter what it took. As a result of that decision, my physical pain began to heal. I am now engaging in regular pro-active self-care. Through addressing the deeper roots of my resistance, I made space for wellness in my life.
Although this was a primary concern when I came to Mindy, I also took on the project of creating employment which is sustainable for my body and also in line with my values. I've begun integrating my value of healthy communication and developmental learning into my decisions about extended education and actively searching for employment that integrates those values as well. As I make my transition out of my current employment, I am also able to be happy and peaceful about where I'm at now- I look forward to my days instead of dreading them.
Another bonus I got out my work with Mindy is being in an incredible partnership. I used to know that I wasn't interested in dating someone in a partnership-creating, serious way. My beliefs about what I needed and wanted shifted dramatically. I found myself willing to be open in a dating relationship for the first time. I was able to experience this relationship as it happened, not through what I knew would happen or what had happened in my previous relationships. I'm able to see possibilities and opportunities where they were invisible to me before

Testimonials I could conceptually conceive of how I wanted to interact with myself and the world, but did not know how to arrive in my self. Working with Mindy bridged the gap between my thoughts, feelings and physicality, renewing a faith in my self as a unified being. This reconnection with what can be described as my center is also a reconnection with everything, bringing greater clarity, intimacy and trust. Trusting in myself and what I see and feel allows me to move much more confidently and joyously in the world. Before our work together, much of what I saw in myself and in the world consisted of meaningless hostility and alienation. Very specifically and of great import, our work together has given me the ability to see the approach and nature of my own anxiety and to soothe it before it gets out of control. The unexpected and wonderful surprise is an agency for choosing how to perceive and interact with myself and the world. I have reentered the realm of active play with my life.

When I came to see Mindy, I constantly experienced anxiety. I had trouble making decisions about anything. In addition, I hadn't experienced an intimate relationship in over 2 years. My lack of confidence was inhibiting me from experiencing life as I wanted to experience it. Through our work together, I was able to see things differently. As my perception shifted, the world shifted around me. I am currently pursuing educational goals that are in line with my values, and I am taking on projects that contribute to my growth as a person. I am confident making decisions that are healthy for me. I am also in a wonderful and solid relationship. Mindy and I's work together currently helps me maintain and integrate my process as well as seriously explore my human potential.

Mindy blew me away. She connected my mind and body, and removed energetic blocks that get in the way of clarity.
