I have been doing yoga therapy with Katy for the past two and a half years. It has been life changing! Katy has taught me how to to move my body and focus my mind in a way I never knew existed. She is a wonderful person - caring, warm, smart and accepting. She has taught me to relax and tackle situations in ways I have never tried before. I am very protective of my weekly visits. My friends and clients know that I never miss my weekly yoga therapy sessions.
I am not very athletic, but Katy has worked with me to build strength in my body as well as my mind and soul. Her office is my sanctuary and I am honored to know her. I highly recommend Katy to those who are seeking guidance and support.Helpful 1Thanks 1Love this 0Oh no 0 - Annie S.Downtown, Austin, TX01Mar 27, 2024
Tita Machado possesses a kind heart, an authentic presence, and a seemingly endless source of wisdom. She approached every thought and challenge I brought into therapy with empathy, compassion, and most importantly, curiosity. With help from Tita, I am now able to connect to, understand, and take care of my inner child for the first time in my life. I can reflect on my time with Tita and note how much I've grown and have learned to enjoy life's unpredictable nature. Thank you Tita!!!

With over a year of experience with Bloom Therapy, specifically Simran Mayadas, I can resoundingly recommend their services. As a first timer to therapy, Simran has blown away every expectation I had for a therapist and the amount of progress that would be possible within just the first year. She has been able to keenly identify areas requiring focus that I had no idea even existed. The work we've done together is immensely supportive of an understanding and toolset which can be applied every day. It's easy to try new things when on the all-comforting therapist's couch, but Simran has gently and consistently supported integrating those practices and behaviors outside that safe environment, which I believe has led to a cumulative and lasting change. When it comes to assistance from the Bloom staff, they've been extremely quick and responsive in resolving the few administrative issues encountered or requests I've made.
With this combination of results and a supportive environment I can wholeheartedly recommend Bloom!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review, Gabe! It really does mean so much to both Bloom and your therapist.

Katy gave me a call and made sure to make it right, which she certainly did. I did not expect her to be so generous with her offer but I really appreciate how serious she took the situation. I'm happy to give this team another try! Thank you for caring for your customers!

Hi James, I am so very sorry for your experience. I will be personally looking into what happened here, and will also reach out to you directly within the next 48 hours to rectify your experience in whatever way possible.
Feb 18, 2024Previous reviewMy first time ever using a therapist and it was a disappointment. I decided to go with a local provider but realized quickly it was not a good fit. My therapist felt inexperienced and my sessions felt cold and unattached to my experience. I'm sure there are quality therapist at this office but unfortunately I was not assigned the right person. The first session was a 1 hour session intake which went fine but it was awkward and I felt I really needed to drive the conversation. The second session was much of the same. Very odd questions and techniques without much guidance on why we were going certain directions. It felt like we were just going off a list of standard questions with no regard to my particular situation. This was highly disappointing since I really wanted to give therapy a shot but have now resorted to figuring it out on my own. It almost felt like my time was being squeezed so that I could get billed as the hour goes by really quick. I had to reschedule our third session and I notified about 23 hours beforehand. Their policy is 24 hour notice or you will be charged. Thinking that I could get an exception since I had a last minute emergency, that was not the case. Instead I was told only if I rescheduled with them, they would waive the fee. Again, felt like they just wanted to bill me and no sympathy for your clients. Especially clients that are probably at the lowest points in their lives.

Bloom Therapy has improved my life in so many ways! Katy David is the best therapist on Earth (Is she even from Earth?)
Seriously, I consider myself so fortunate to be a client there!Helpful 0Thanks 1Love this 1Oh no 0Apr 13, 2021Previous reviewFive stars barely feels sufficient to describe what an extraordinary therapist Katy David is. She has an unusual gift of being able to be in two places at once: right there with you (great listener, very empathetic) and yet also a half-a-step ahead (okay, a full step, sometimes, in my case) in terms of insights and suggestions that actually solve problems. I'm grateful to call her my therapist.

I've been seeing Elaine at Bloom Therapy for the past year and she's played a remarkable role in my journey to healing trauma and connecting to my higher self. She guides with intuition and compassion, and has gracefully lead me to inner-depths that I didn't know existed ~
I couldn't speak more highly of Elaine and Bloom!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Madilyn M.Austin, TX42317Feb 17, 2022
When I started counseling with Elaine at Bloom I truly thought I'd never heal. I laugh at that looking back, because I have healed and gone above and beyond what I thought possible. Elaine has a unique gift. She is deeply authentic and caring. Her ability to "see me", often with more clarity than I see myself, has been the key to my success. I'm now stronger, clearer, and happier than I have ever been.
Elaine, thank you for being respectful, empowering and truly caring. You're the best therapist I've ever had.
Thanks for everything, Bloom Therapy and Elaine!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

My experience working with Katy has been beyond life changing. I gave up hope last year after working with 5 different therapists for my anxiety and panic attacks and got no where. I then came across Katy's website and for some reason decided to give it one more shot. Katy's style of acceptance and mindfulness therapy has truly helped me heal and the skills she has taught me I know I will use for the rest of my life. I've only been working with her for 2 1/2 months but I feel like a completely different person then when I started. I am beyond grateful to have found Katy and hope others will too.

Katy's sessions have truly helped me heal. She creates a nonjudgmental, open space for you to communicate and transform yourself. Her sessions are creative and allow you to express yourself in whatever manner feels comfortable for you. She is kind, genuine, and truly an expert at what she does. I recommend her to absolutely anyone!

Katie is easy to talk to and a very good listener. She helped me develop some techniques to be more mindful and address some issues with a different perspective than the approach I was accustomed to. She helped me grow as a person and I would highly recommend her!
