TESTIMONIALS

“I was referred to Dina from a family member who swore she was a wonderful and highly-qualified psychotherapist. I found the courage to pick up the phone to schedule my first appointment and, from that moment, I realized the importance of consulting and seeking advice from a qualified professional.

Dina is incredibly skilled and knowledgeable. She provides clarity and challenges my thoughts on various levels, allowing me to better understand who I am as an individual.

There is a stigma associated with seeking professional help, but I realize that it is extremely beneficial, let alone liberating! Most of us will resort to this after we have experienced a trying moment in our lives and I believe that there is no better help than taking the necessary measures to help yourself – nobody can do it for you.

I am grateful that Dina Kneller-Gold is my psychotherapist and I’m grateful that I was referred to her. My only regret is that I hadn’t gone sooner! I have learned a great deal since my first session and I am continuously learning.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you Dina. You have been exceptionally helpful and a true inspiration.”

“Dina is a dynamic and very skilled professional. I recently had a ‘Breakthrough’ with her as my coach! I read about it in the Oprah magazine. What an amazing experience! I would recommend Dina and having a ‘Breakthrough’ to everybody.  It really changes you and how you see yourself and your life. I feel more focused. I see things more clearly. I now know where I need to go and how to get there. I am more motivated to go there and Just Do It!  Change is not as difficult as I had expected.”

“My husband and I went to see Dina to help us with our relationship. We had been struggling for a long time.  Communication had broken down and we become distant. We almost waited too long. Separation would have been the next step. After going to Dina for a few months, our relationship has become so much better.  We are friends again. Intimacy is not a foreign place anymore. Thank you, Dina!”

“I was on sick leave from work and I was referred to Dina. I was not ready to go back to work after 1 month. I was still feeling burnt out and fed up. I was depressed and hiding in my house. Now 2 months later, after a few sessions with Dina, I am back at work and feeling energized and positive about my life and my work. Dina inspired me to believe in myself again!”

“I was in a relationship again that failed to have a future! My life was ‘same old, same old’ story. I decided I needed to get some professional help. I felt lost and desperate to understand what was going on!

With Dina’s guidance and coaching I was able to see what patterns I was repeating and reliving over and over again. TimeLine Therapy is really cool!  It wasn’t scary to go back. I was the observer and the participant in my own life, learning that who I was and how I saw myself back then and why I feel that way can change. l can really learn from the past. I don’t have to press the replay button. I am able to take from the past and play it forward in a healthier way.

Once I could see myself differently and I could believe in myself as ready to be in a healthy relationship,  guess what? I met someone special and we are happy. It is one year I still check in with Dina from time to time just to keep on the right track. I am so grateful to have had this experience. She really was my tour guide to my own path.”– Taylor focuschangeintl-enh

Dina drew on a multitude of skills and experiences as a former teacher, social worker and therapist to tailor our psychotherapy sessions to suit my needs. This adaptability and flexibility was very helpful in addressing both the greater, overlying issues and the day-to-day practical application of techniques, such as anxiety reduction and reframing thoughts into a more positive, action-inspiring outlook. I valued her input greatly.” -A.S.

 “I have gained so much by attending this workshop.  I was able to connect with my unconscious mind, learn to relax, and understand myself in a clearer way. This workshop has given me confidence to see myself in a positive light and to create a better future for myself.  I leave this workshop empowered, confident and focused- on myself, my life and my surroundings.” – Miriam Newman

“Thank You Very much Dina! “ I Learned a lot and now I would like to learn how to bring out good vibes and positive relations with people.” Anne Marie Auger

 “Dina was professional, dynamic, well organized and very knowledgeable on today’s topic- “Women, Body Image & Self Hypnosis”. I endorse Dian’s skills and encourage women of all ages to attend. – Glenda Falovitch

 “The workshop “Mirror, Mirror” focuses on inner and outer beauty and how as women we’ve been programmed to perceive beauty the way society has depicted it for us.

 In addition to learning about women’s perceptions, we learned about how we have the ability to change our own perception. This can be done by becoming in touch with your unconscious mind and open to the concept of hypnosis. The thought of hypnosis was always intimidating to me, but after this experience I realized that there is nothing to be fearful of, but rather to be more open to tapping into your unconscious mind .

 The overall experience was very interesting and engaging.  I can certainly walk away from this workshop with some new findings and more in touch with my inner self. It has definitely allowed ne to clear my thoughts, the focus and fog in my mind. I finally felt I could see the silver ling, gain some perspective and continue on my current path which is certainly in the right direction.

 Dina has been inspirational to me and incredibly passionate about her workshop, and it translated in the room. I have learned a great deal. A true mentor, an inspiring woman and qualified.  Thank You Dina.”-  Amanda Ferri
