I give Lisa & Janet at Embracingself.life a 5 star rating for relationship coaching and couples counseling. I was struggling in a long term relationship and found Lisa and Janet on Thumbtack. They were extremely professional and immediately responsive. They helped to clear up many conflicts that I was experiencing during a trial live - in with my boyfriend. I highly recommend their service for conflict resolution and crisis management.

I have been seeing Lisa since 2022. When my husband and I started our sessions, we were on the verge of canceling our wedding. I was able to get an appointment in a timely manor and started the hard work. We ended up getting married and now have a beautiful two year old girl and are trying for our second. We would not be where we are today without these sessions. We still have sessions with Lisa and continue to strengthen our relationship. I could not be more thankful!

She was very helpful and insightful. She brought to my attention things that were needed that I did not realize. I most definitely appreciate her assistance.

The ladies that I've been seeing, Lisa and Janet, are absolute angels. I am beyond thankful I found them. I started seeing them for anticipatory grief for my chronically ill kitty, but they have helped me beyond that. My mind feels more clear since seeing them.
