I had no idea how much my life would change after meeting Carol. I see her for a 3 hour counseling session every week. I have many wounds and fears that I wanted to heal but did not know how. I had chronic back pain for the past 15 years and had been going to a chiropractor and having Acupuncture, Massage and Cranial Sacral therapy regularly. My pain was under control as long as I went to them but would come back if I stopped. I have also tried affirmations, a 10 day meditation retreat and raw food diets. Nothing helped long term. I was in constant fear of everything and everyone around me. I felt trapped. Life was a struggle and I kept asking myself, "What am I doing wrong? How can I fix myself? How can I be happy?"

Carol helped me understand the reason for my fears and pain and has taught me many tools to gain clarity. She is helping me heal my fear, sadness and anger which I have suppressed all my life by releasing my trapped emotions in a safe and appropriate manner. She is always there for me with her unconditional love and support, helping me in every step of my healing journey. Whenever I feel stuck in between sessions, she is always available by phone and email. What I love most about her is that she encourages me to find my own answers by asking the question, "What do I want?" She also helps me get in touch with my inner self, my guides, rather than telling me what to do and being dependent on her. She has helped me grow in ways I could never imagine, empowering me to be the person I truly am. Thank you Carol.

I discovered Seva Deva Healing Center at a time in my life when I’d almost given up on finding a way to heal the emotional pain that was haunting me. I felt like I was stuck in a sink hole and no matter what I tried to do to change my situation, nothing seemed to help. Every aspect of my life was affected and every day was difficult. I became paralyzed with fear for several years. Carol taught me a process of healing my emotions that I could physically feel, and as I started to feel better in my body, I wanted more. This emotional release process has changed everything in my life. I’m grateful to Carol for showing me how to take care of my emotions, and I’m excited to be back in the flow of life! Every day is now an opportunity to heal more by using my new tools. Thank you, Carol, for teaching me.

I found Carol at a very difficult time in my life. From an objective perspective, everything was going fine: work, finances, family, etc. But I felt increasingly anxious, disconnected and inexplicably exhausted. I decided that if I started eating even more healthy and exercising even more, I would surely be able to fix whatever was wrong with me. But after raw vegetable fasts, long runs and a clean bill of health from my physician, nothing changed. That is when I decided to reach out for help. I had no idea when I first walked through Carol's warm and inviting door that I would be starting a journey that would change my life. After only a few sessions, I felt like I had known her my whole life.

I saw Carol for weekly three-hour sessions. The longer sessions allowed me to fully commit to the process, and each one was transformative. Carol helped me identify the deep emotions that had been bottled up inside of me for years, guiding me through a process of releasing my anger, sadness, and fear in a compassionate and patient way. I left our sessions with a deep sense of calm and hope. Carol also taught me how to set boundaries, and how to honor my emotions and my body. It’s been difficult and sometimes painful, but without doubt, every aspect of my life has been positively impacted by the work we did together. Carol provided me with the tools and insight to help me follow a path of wholeness and self-awareness. I will be forever grateful to have had her in my life.

Carol did not change my life. She gave me the tools to allow ME to change my life. It hasn't been easy and my work is far from over, but the incredible difference in my outlook, perception and emotional well-being from one year ago has made every difficult moment worth it. Carol is tough and won't let me slide by with my old patterns and excuses. That is exactly why I came to her (or perhaps why I "found" her) – to be called out on all those things I wasn't even aware I was doing. She is kind, loving, perceptive, and honest. She is also human and willing to share her own vulnerabilities and stories about herself. I am forever grateful that she has walked with me on this part of my healing journey.

I found myself feeling lost and unhappy in my life. I could experience happiness at times, but I didn’t feel fully connected with myself or with anything outside of myself. The work I had been doing was just a routine and the dreams I once had were slowly becoming far off fantasies. For a long time I contemplated that there must be more, and if I thought about my years when I was younger I knew I felt more alive and full of spirit then. I wanted to feel that again, but I didn’t know how to get there.

After searching online I happened to come across Carol’s website for Seva Deva. I read about her life and her journey and started to feel more intrigued with such dedication to finding one’s purpose in life. I went on to read about her methods and the work she offers, and felt like I found what I was looking for. Her approach seemed like the right fit for me.

In our sessions Carol listened to me intently, sharing so much wisdom. She taught me how to build my new foundation, which is a clearer platform for discovering who I am, why I feel the way I do and how I want to live my life. We created a vision. Through hard work and difficult realities of learning about myself, Carol was a caring guide, gently walking me through my inner work. This became the catalyst to enabling me to nurture my emotional, spiritual, physical and intellectual being. Now I have the tools I need to become whole, and to trust that the universe is here for me. I have the ability to live connected to my spirit and uncover all the love that I always had within me. I can once again hear, listen and trust my intuition, as I have no doubt it is what brought me to Carol and Dan and Seva Deva. I am forever thankful for this moment in my life.

As often happens to me in the winter, I was feeling a growing sense of bottled up emotions. I needed to express myself in all my horrid glory! I felt that such a process of emotional release was not only critical for my well-being, but would help reveal my true path. I found Seva Deva on line and resonated deeply with Carol's story and her approach to healing.

During my sessions the attention Carol gave me was undivided and full of care. She provided a safe space to feel everything and anything. The love I felt resonated in my soul. Thank you, Carol, for sharing your healing gift with me and so many others.

It is difficult to put into words how grateful I am for the time I spent at Seva Deva. Carol was willing to go with me to places that very few Souls dare visit. As a result of her guidance and unbending faith in the process that she teaches, I was able to jumpstart my emotions and reconnect with an essential piece of my Self. My love and gratitude are forever with Carol, Dan, and the home they call Seva Deva.

Carol, you really are one of the most authentic people I know. Words just cannot express the gratitude I feel for having you in my life. Thank you for your strength, courage and commitment. Thank you for listening to me and believing in me. Thank you for your honesty and patience. And thank you, thank you for leading by example!!!

The work I've been doing with you has been indescribable, wonderful, scary, amazing, enlightening. I feel like I'm losing my balance to find my REAL balance. I am re-prioritizing on every level, learning how to take better care of myself in order to fulfill my purpose of helping others. My self-awareness has skyrocketed - it's like this light bulb that keeps getting brighter and brighter. I am seeing the interconnectedness of everything, understanding how the challenges I face in my life are really these amazing gifts and opportunities to grow.

Knowing this is helping me to open my heart, to be more loving and patient with myself because I am finally UNDERSTANDING the root of my anger, fear and sadness - where my obstacles are coming from. Already, it has had a wonderful impact at work and in my personal life. The issues that come up with my clients and loved ones are always related to the work I'm doing on myself. Carol, your guidance and support are truly amazing. Thank you for helping me to listen and to honor myself. I love you!

Shortly after my 60th birthday, I accepted I was missing several steps in the parade of life. No matter what I did, I couldn't get anything in synch. My body hurt, my heart hurt, my mind was constantly swirling. When there was little relief using traditional methods and prescription medicine, I sought new modalities of healing. I worked with a counselor, with a hypnotist, with art therapy, with meditation. For brief moments, I would find a sense of peace, well-being, quiet. But, it would all disappear equally quickly for no apparent reason.

A long time research junkie, I came across the Seva Deva Healing Center online, with a photo of a woman with warm eyes and an inviting smile, Carol Landrum. The description of the path she had taken to become a healer appealed to me on a cellular level. The services she provides in her healing center made sense to me on an intellectual level, and more importantly, somewhere deep inside.

Since I began working with Carol, I've learned more about myself and my emotions and how they relate to how I relate to family and friends and to the world, than I have in all my other explorations. I look forward to each session as we discuss where I am, and where I want to be.

The explorations of my wants and needs, which have been suppressed for decades, has opened me to emotions and feelings that I'd often treated as foreign. As I feel more, I heal more; as I heal more, I feel more.

I'm truly grateful for the love and warmth that Carol brings to her clients.
