"I've worked with several different therapist in the last 15 years, and of those, Antanien is by far the best: most efficient, most insightful, and most effective at helping me with my life goals. When I am in session with Antanien, it's clear that her attention is fully on me and she's very present. Her ability to "hear between the lines" is absolutely world class. She's an extremely experienced coach and working with her has been critical in making forward progress in my personal and professional life. I enjoy her direct but kind approach. She helps push me forward while still making sure I take responsibility for my own life, owning my thoughts, actions and reactions. That accountability has been crucial for me, and I had not experienced that with other therapists and coaches. She challenges me to do better, and it shows how much she deeply cares about my wellness. She has a particular way of taking problems that feel huge and insurmountable, and making them manageable. I feel deeply grateful to have found a life coach like her and I cannot give her a higher recommendation if you are ready to make real and lasting positive change."

"Antanien is the first life coach I've ever worked with. I was going through a period of increased stress stemming from my job and needed a different outlook from someone in order to navigate the obstacles I was forced to face. Right away, I felt a very good vibe from her which eased things since talking to a professional was a new experience to me. She was very receptive and frankly gave me a new perspective on my job as well as life in general. I've experienced a boost in my performance at work and I haven't felt this empowered in a long time. The most important thing is how I feel great after each session which carries over into my every day life. I'm so grateful to have come across Ashvin Evolution and have already recommended sessions to family and friends. I highly suggest doing at least a few sessions with Antanien to see if life coaching is right for you, because it has significantly improved my life and overall well being."

"I’ve had the benefit of both Antanien’s therapeutic counseling as well as life coaching sessions for nearly two years. What has greatly benefited me in both situations has been her guidance which has included spiritual and cognitive elements as well as practical and strategic assistance. Her diverse skill sets have helped me achieve mindfulness, reduction in stress and anxiety while significantly altering my limited patterns of thinking. From there, I continue to receive her coaching to help me think of strategies to improve my career objectives and other life goals. Her insight, support and genuine interest in helping me attain a better life have been outstanding."

“I met Antanien at a critical point in my life when I urgently needed to regain balance and focus. Antanien provided a clear and logical assessment of what my obstacles were to realizing my true potential. Together we moved through challenges I once thought were insurmountable. While showing respect for my faith and values she helped me find the power from within to achieve the goals we set together. Like any successful coach she held me accountable in a firm, but patient way.
Antanien is nothing short of masterful in her skills as a Life Coach. My life has been changed for the better and I’ll always be grateful for the tools I’ve acquired to a more fulfilling and purpose driven life!”

“I first met Antanien when she was leading group work as a counselor. I quickly realized that I was better able to connect with Antanien than other therapists that I had seen. After the group ended I decided to continue working with her. As a life coach, Antanien has really helped me to identify where the solutions are. She helped to provide so many tools to work through problems and set goals and then achieve those goals. Antanien is straightforward but compassionate, and kept me accountable. Her insight and ability to focus on the the fundamental element of a problem or goal made me understand how simple things actually were instead of getting overwhelmed by details. Working with Antanien really helped me create habits that have lead to a happier and more fulfilling life.”

“I've been seeing Antanien for a year now, which is the longest I've seen any one therapist at a time, and is a testament to the quality of her care in itself. I've made so much progress since this time last year, and I appreciate that the practice allowed me to do a brief consultation with Antanien before starting sessions with her. She's compassionate, knowledgable, great at sharing information and resources, and I always feel like our sessions are cumulative and building on top of each other vs feeling like one-off conversations. I also really like that she includes scientific information about the brain and nervous system which I have found quite profound. Highly recommend Antanien.”

“Antanien is an extremely thoughtful therapist that will challenge you to be your best self by actively giving you tools to implement. I love the "homework" and don't feel like I'm venting but rather actively problem solving. She's the perfect balance of being encouraging/supportive/understanding and at the same will challenge you. I have seen immense progress (decrease in anxiety, and increase in confidence). I look forward to continuing our work together.”

“Real review here. Just had my first session and it was great. I’ve had other first sessions with therapists and they seem so surface level. I can tell that she’s taking my concerns seriously and I’m excited to build a relationship and create a plan for myself going forward. Only had one session but I think this will be good.”

“I've been seeing Antanien for a few months and find our sessions helpful, constructive, supportive, and encouraging. She provides tangible exercises, scientific context as relevant (which I find interesting and useful), and has helped me connect dots and develop a deeper understanding of myself. She's helped me expand my vocabulary around what I feel and how I respond to things. She helps me course correct and guides me towards showing myself compassion and grace. I'm looking forward to digging deeper with her in our upcoming sessions.”

“I've always been skeptical of therapy since I've been to some terrible therapists in the past. Antanien has restored my faith- she really listens and is honest about the work that needs to be done but is also incredibly supportive and resourceful. I love the homework and found I have learned a lot about myself in the last few months. I'm hopeful that the tools I learn in therapy will continue to help me.”

“Antanien, I can't express how truly grateful I am for having you as my therapist. When I began this journey, I carried the heavy burden of anxiety and the scars of past traumas, and it felt like an insurmountable weight. Your kindness and the strategies you employed created a safe haven where I could bare my soul. Your use of mindfulness techniques, in particular, touched me deeply and equipped me with resilience that endures. What moves me the most is the profound, lasting change that your dedication has ushered into my life. You didn't just help me manage my issues; you showed me how to face them head-on and build a brighter future. I've emerged into a more positive light, and it's a transformation I cherish every day. Antanien, thank you from the depths of my heart for the life-altering impact you've had on my journey. You are more than a therapist; you are a beacon of hope, a guiding light through life's darkest moments. With heartfelt appreciation.”

“I have been working with Antanien for some time and I can honestly say she is one of the best therapists I’ve worked with! I went through quite a few therapists before I started seeing Antanien due to me not feeling comfortable with them. Once I met with Antanien I felt an immediate connection. She was very welcoming and I immediately felt respected as an individual. She is a very caring therapist that is professional, a great listener, provides empathic support , and gives helpful advice. I would recommend anyone to her that is looking to start therapy!”

“Antanien helped me tremendously. We quickly identified my areas of need, developed a plan and methodically executed it over each visit. She was open to make adjustments as they would arise but stayed on target and held me accountable to my goals. Not once did I feel our sessions were unproductive. Working with Antanien was nothing short of life changing and rarely does a day go by when I’m not referencing something we discussed and am able to put it into practice. As a result I’ve gained a new zeal for life and started to pursue several creative endeavors I previously only dreamed of! I’m forever grateful for the work we did together.”
