I've been receiving BodyTalk treatments from Holly since 2016 and it has become a really important part of my wellness toolkit. Even without regular sessions I've made more progress than I had using traditional therapy techniques (CBT, DBT, and others) for over 15 years. I still use other support tools alongside BodyTalk, and feel those therapies are much more effective when combined with BodyTalk. I've been able to safely process traumas stored deeply in my memory and my body that have been affecting my mental health on a subconscious level. When I receive a session from Holly, my Body knows what needs to be addressed and healed, even when it makes no logical sense to me (which most of the time it doesn't). I've experienced a much deeper mind-body-spirit connection enabling me to move forward in my life, no longer arrested and affected by shadowy past traumas or unpleasant events.

 

I feel that I'm becoming the best version of myself that I didn't even know was possible.

 

I've also received a BodyTalk treatment to address the specific concern of interstitial cystitis. So far I've only had one targeted treatment, which relieved my immediate symptoms overnight. I do still experience symptoms at times but now I feel more able to mentally and physically move through the pain and discomfort with a level of acceptance that enables me to keep living my life. I plan to continue treatments and have no doubt this condition will improve.  (Haerah B)

Our session had a profound effect on my well being. Thank you for your expertise, your healing touch, and deep intuition. I have been recommending BodyTalk to family and friends! I will be in touch regarding another appointment. Thank you again and again!  (Amy S)

I have been seeing Holly Barnard regularly for eight or more years while I have been recovering from PTSD and working on improving other health issues, brought on in part by dealing with Hurricane Katrina and its aftermath. I moved to Willits from New Orleans a year or so after going through that disaster and blessedly met and started seeing Holly shortly thereafter.

 

Not only has Holly been a key factor in helping me heal my psyche and soul, she has soothed my anxious and painful body with her deep knowledge of body/mind/spirit practices. She continues to educate and enlighten herself through learning useful and compelling disciplines and sharing those with her incredibly lucky clients/patients. I am so grateful to have connected with Holly. Her compassionate caring and healing touch has contributed immensely to my current state of being: happy, healthy and thriving. (Kathleen R)

Combining skilled technique, guided imagery, and intuition, Holly's bodywork has been the perfect complement to my individual counseling experience.

"The body knows", and Holly knows the body. She has helped me regain a sense of Self and accelerated my healing process.  (Victoria S)

I feel very enlivened and integrated today, not at all fragile! Woke up a lot during the night, with feelings of energy surging about in my body. I wonder if that is what bulbs feel too? This time of year, after being silent and still in the dark through the cold, how do they get started? I suspect now they may feel something similar, jolts of energy, inchoate at first, only gradually flowing into purpose sending up shoots and buds and roots.

Anyway, today I feel increasingly integrated and comfortable, my back feels strong, and rather less vertigo. Thank you so much for the session yesterday! (Stephanie H)

I was referred to Holly when I was searching for a solution to my infant's 'off colored' bowel movements. He also seemed extremely fussy. Initially I thought the unusual bm's were something he might need to be seen for (by an MD) but after a phone meeting with Holly, we determined that I should have a session of BodyTalk first and move forward from there. The first session was amazing, very powerful and relaxing to my emotional and physical body. I'm happy to report that by the next scheduled session (2 weeks later) my son's bm's had returned to 'more normal' and his fussiness (gas) subsided as well. 

​

Each following session I experienced a decrease in stress and anger levels as well as uncovering trapped emotional states from my past and working on aligning everything. This drew me to discuss some things about my past and my own birth with my mother, and that has helped close some of the emotional gap between her and I.

​

I was quite amazed at how quickly BodyTalk could fix my son's physical issue, through me, as well as being very happy with the emotional stability it brings me having regular sessions with Holly. I skipped about 6 weeks due to a vacation and child care issues and boy oh boy, I could tell a difference! I'm happy to be back on my regular schedule with Holly.  (Holly W)

Holly has deep knowledge in the healing arts and a strong intuitive nature. She draws on these skills to create a custom plan to fit my needs. With her guidance I am seeing a decrease in pain and learning to embrace my healing energies. I am receiving first class bodywork.  (Linda M)

I really appreciate the work you are doing and how you are so very present. Your responses and insights inspire me to REALLY look at a situation objectively to really see what's there, instead of overanalyzing. Feeling so blessed I get to work with you!  (Natalie B)
