What clients experience
I realized at some point I was making the same mistakes over and over again. I was in a three-month relationship with a clinical narcissist. That spun me out, and I couldn’t understand what was going on. I had been single forever, and I was a single mom for basically 18 years. I didn’t really date; I was never interested in the free dinners or in meeting more people. I love my kid; I was fulfilled, but I wanted a serious relationship. That was the first time I actually initiated therapy. I had a friend who told me, "Ariel is amazing; you should try it."
Gina, 53, California
"I Got Sober, Lost 80 Pounds, and Found Myself I believed. I could never have a real relationship. I judged people quickly, pushed them away, and filled the emptiness with work, money, and alcohol. I had no real drive or purpose. After working one-on-one with Ariel, everything began to change. I became sober, lost 80 pounds, and found a steadiness I had never had before. Today, I’m in a partnership built on respect, honesty, and laughter. My work reflects who I actually am, and I feel more authentic, genuine, and open to possibilities than I ever thought possible."
Michael, 52, New York
"I Went From Rage and Mistrust to a Completely New Life. I spent years working in high-level conflict zones, and I became consumed by rage, mistrust, and hypervigilance. I could barely connect with people. When I began working with Ariel, my body and mind started to release what I had been carrying. Within weeks, I was looking people in the eye, smiling, and feeling alive again. I left my old career, bought land, started a farm, and rebuilt a home. I no longer see the world through anger. I feel grounded, purposeful, and free."
David, 42, California
"I Reconnected With My Family After Seven Years. I had gone seven years without speaking to my mother. I was hiding important parts of my life from my family because I was afraid they wouldn’t accept who I had become. I came to Ariel highly skeptical, but the work helped me finally face what I had been avoiding. I reached out to my parents, had honest conversations, and eventually met them in person for the first time in years. I stopped hiding and began living openly and authentically. My relationships with my family are now close and loving."
Rachel, 38, New York
"I Turned a Difficult Divorce Into a New Beginning. I did a retreat with Ariel after separating from my husband of 14 years. I was angry and felt betrayed, but after three days I could finally see my part in the relationship and see him clearly. I had a friendly, productive divorce without feeling the need to blame him. Ariel also helped me see the fear holding me back from directing movies. Four or five months later, I started directing and was hired for a project. I don’t think I would have done it without the work I did with her."
Laura, 41, Toronto
"I Finally Healed a Relationship With My Mother My relationship with my mother had been difficult for my entire life. I left home early and never believed we could have a different relationship. Working with Ariel helped me see how much I was bringing into the dynamic. As I became more aware of my own reactions, communication softened and trust began to build. Today, my mother and I have a completely different relationship. There’s warmth, love, and honest connection where I once thought there could only be distance."
Lily, 55, Los Angeles
"I Learned to Stop Reacting and Start Choosing. Before working with Ariel, I lived almost entirely in my head and was constantly caught in a loop of thoughts. I didn’t know how to exist in the world as myself. Through our work, I learned to slow down, feel what was actually happening, and take responsibility for my choices. I learned how to breathe again and make decisions from a deeper place instead of reacting. The biggest difference is that I no longer feel dependent on someone else to lead me. I feel more autonomous and able to lead myself."
Margo, 29, New York
"I Went From Being Addicted to Living With Intention. I spent most of my life hiding behind drinking, smoking, vaping, and constant consumption. I was surrounded by wealth and influence, but underneath it I felt lost and disconnected. Working with Ariel helped me face what I had been avoiding. I stopped drinking, smoking, and vaping, changed the way I ate, and started walking 11 kilometers a day. I also stopped womanizing. For the first time, I’m choosing honesty, health, and peace over image and indulgence."
Thomas, 36, London
"I Started Living From My Heart. I came to Ariel during a difficult period because I couldn’t stay in my own head anymore. I had tried traditional therapy, but I felt stuck in the same stories. With Ariel, I began to see my reactions and the beliefs underneath them. For the first time, I started to feel my heart. I became more grounded, more aware of how I show up in my relationships, and more capable of choosing how I respond. I’m happier, more at peace with myself, and I finally feel like I have the tools to create my life."
Sarah, 46, California
"I Came Back to Myself. I had spent much of my life carrying questions and struggles I didn’t know how to resolve. After my first Zoom session with Ariel, I was amazed by how much I understood about myself in just a few hours. I felt my mind opening and my body responding in a way I had never experienced before. I was terrified of doing the intensive at first, but afterward I saw the world differently. I feel like I began a journey toward my true self, with a completely new perspective on what is possible for me."
Fatema, 42, London
