"Shana has the gift to truly hold a man's soul in her gaze."

"I'm still at a loss for words to really express my deep appreciation for your challenge & love. Never before had I experienced the full effect that my closure was having on the women in my life; it never made sense until then [the moment with you]. If, as a Woman, you have beauty, love & wisdom to offer and the Man doesn't "listen", I now understand how hurt that makes you feel. Thank you for helping me understand that, Shana...every woman thanks you."
-Dalton
“Since working with Shana, I've felt more comfortable and right about myself, I've struck up warm conversations with beautiful women, and my girlfriend and I are closer and happier than ever.
Shana reflected me back to myself and I got a clear sense of what it's like for a woman to be around me in my different states of being - so rare to get that kind of immediate feedback. Together, we explored ways I could let my authentic core come through.
In one particularly amazing session, she helped me touch an emotion that I thought had been dead in me. When I let myself feel it completely, things suddenly got full, present, authentic, joyful, spontaneous, effortless. Exactly what I wanted in the first place. To have this explained is one thing, but to be guided through the actual experience of it has opened my eyes and changed my way of being.”

“My work with Shana awakens my inner spirit and gives me confidence as I express myself more fully every day. I've become more connected to my own and to my partner's energy, presence, attention, feelings, and basically all that people communicate and share.
Shana's focus, wisdom and humor allow us to work on the deepest personal levels and to unlock some hidden gems. Role playing with Shana is also an invaluable way to explore my edges and begin integrating new ideas into a daily practice.
Relating with Shana has a quality similar to sitting with the Buddah except that the 'relating' is more human and the energy is different. The quality of 'dropping in' is there in both settings, surrendering, opening, receiving.

Shana helps me get in touch with the desire in my heart, reminding me that not only is it OK to ask for my needs to be met in relationships, but that I have such needs in the first place! Such practice allows me to be an action, rather than stuck in my head, analyzing, keeping me from being present. "
-Bruce
" My work with Shana was the journey of authenticity. Digging deep and sharing, having it reciprocated -- is awesome and powerful, and a model that I truly look forward to in my future relationships and friendships. My thanks to you for helping me take another step in that direction. Knowing your feedback was honest, real, and unfiltered, was a precious gift."
-Jim
"I'll never forget the moment I first met Shana. The whole moment her gaze never faded. It was like she saw right through me. I tried to put on a "cool guy act", like I had it all together, but she saw the very thing I was trying to run away from and hide. I tried to brush it off. I felt my eyes start to burn, and my throat start to choke.
Shana taught me to recognize the emotions I carry, and the importance of clearing the emotional pipes, so I can feel new fresh ones in the moment. Her gaze felt like she was holding my broken heart, and her voice let me know that it's okay to be hurt. In less then 10 minutes, she read deeper into me than my closest friends.
I was trying to camouflage among a sea of men, but she spotted me right away. For the first time, in a very long time, I felt that someone saw me and I matter. "

"One of the things that makes the work I do with Shana so astounding is that it regularly touches me in places that none of my extensive therapeutic work ever could. Shana sees me, she embraces my soul and I am deeply moved."
