The beauty and stillness of the land are profound. With the support of the staff, I found it relatively easy to drop my personality and bask in the hub and hum of existence. I know I will never go back to being who I thought I was.

I am unable to find the words to adequately describe just how much Dr Ann West has helped me. I met her few years ago while seeking a different type of help for a life long battle with depression and insecurity. Whether at a private retreat, group retreat or doing virtual sessions, she has guided me with compassion and love toward my truth. She has highlighted a path I had never seen but was within me all along. To work with her is a choice to seek your highest self. It is a choice to find clarity and acceptance. It is a choice to truly heal. I can not say where my life would be if I hadn’t found her, but I can’t imagine it would be anywhere near as fulfilling as it is today.

It is a place to explore your soul, listen to the silence of your heart, and simply be…stop the constant thoughts…yes, simply be.

I arrived tired and tormented. I was looking for a relaxing, restorative and healthy holiday but my week at Sacred Springs was so much more than that. I am deeply touched and transformed.

Ann saved my relationship! My gf and I were on the brink of separation after a tough move in/cultural differences and Ann helped us spiritually through coping techniques, effective communication and breath work. She’s a highly skilled listener and will most definitely lead you to improvement. My gf and I are now getting engaged! Worth the investment and I highly recommend.

I highly recommend Ann. Her broad range of knowledge, attentiveness and "shoot straight from the hip" approach to the issues I needed guidance with have helped me lay the foundation to make life-long changes I want (and need) to make. She is very easy to talk to. I recommend her to anyone who is going through a rough patch (or two) to seek her help. I'm glad I did.

Working with Ann has been one of the most transformative, soul-enriching experiences in my life. She effectively coaxed me out of the pitfalls of self-doubt/pity and catapulted me towards my dreams and goals. Throughout this process Ann has praised me for my victories, but never let me rests on my laurels. If you really want to elevate yourself to a higher state of being, working with Ann is for you.

I've tried different therapists for 15 years and while I gleaned some things from each, Ann is the first person who I felt a real connection with. She's accessible and real and has helped me immensely with addressing long time issues. Our conversations and work together have provided me the ability to see and feel my experiences and trauma from a different perspective, a more compassionate perspective. I still struggle at times, of course, but feel more prepared to embrace and move through my 'stuff' when it comes back up. The tools she provides work if you use them. I appreciate the way she shares her personal story and experience as well. To me, that's invaluable and part of why I'd recommend her to anyone looking for quality help.

Dr. Ann West has impressed me from the start on keeping me focused on why I need her. I have never experienced such a therapist who has the empathy with a laser focus on what is best for me, while I wade through the complexity of my current circumstances. She has the moral compass I need in a therapist with the heart as well.

Dr. West is an extraordinary person. At my initial meeting, Dr. West was attentive, direct, and zoned into the basis of my challenges. I look forward to her counsel, I believe it can be trusted.

If you want to change your life, you have got to work with Dr. West!  I had the great fortune of meeting Dr. West shortly after I moved to Napa. From the moment I entered her beautiful Napa Valley home for a group breathwork session, I knew I had found something extraordinary.  It was such a unique experience that I knew I needed to have more interactions with Dr. West.  I was in a tremendous amount of pain and I was looking for alternative methods of treatment as traditional medicine could find no source of the pain.  Over the course of a few months, I was able to experience many of the healing modalities that Dr. West provides. 

I started with detoxification utilizing Ozone Therapy.  As part of the detoxification, Dr. West worked with me to improve my diet, and taught me how to avoid toxins in everyday life.  She also encouraged me to have an evaluation completed of my overall health in order to prevent disease and better eliminate toxins. The results were life changing! Because of the guidance I received from Dr. West, I truly believe I will be able to avoid Alzheimer’s disease that runs in my family. I am now on course to change the aging process and I am much healthier as a result. 

However, not all my problems were lifestyle or dietary. While receiving ozone therapy, Ann immediately recognized that my pain was not all physical. I then began breathwork sessions. Ann’s inner knowing helps get to the root of things very quickly, and we were able to uncover deep seated issues. The breathwork sessions are truly amazing! I had no idea how many things I was still carrying that were adversely affecting my life and causing me physical pain.  This in conjunction with counseling helped move me through a lifetime of buried core issues into a much happier life.

I also participated in many of Dr. West’s healing retreats.  I was able to experience everything from breathwork, counseling, meditation, yoga, hiking, delicious meals to thought provoking films, laser therapy, ozone therapy, colonics, and a sacred healing journey. A lifetime of issues can be reshaped in just a few days with Ann's help. Ann’s energy is powerful and loving.  She is a true healer and will inspire you to be a better version of yourself. Because of Dr. West every aspect of my life has been changed. She has truly saved my life!
