<h3>Client Testimonial(s)</h3>
The journey with Jaya has been the compass and trust I needed to heal my trauma and hurt. Her intuition and empathy, along with positivity and encouragement, have given me the belief in me to accept that life is more than the past and to be present for each day. My nervous system, fear, and doubt, I feel, have been supported with visual, sound, self-touch and breathing resources and techniques that I trust in now and reach for in my moments of doubt and triggers in continuing my healing process.
------------------------------------
Jaya’s work has been profound and immensely helpful. She is highly skilled, knowledgeable and compassionate. It has been quite extraordinary for me to be guided through an unfolding process utilizing a range of experiences (in the moment), such as awareness of my body sensations, body language feedback from Jaya, the creation of symbols from my imagination based on prompts from Jaya, dramatic role playing, art therapy, and symbolic play. Each session helps me to build new awareness and more personal resources, which I have been able to put to direct practical everyday use. Most powerful.
