Testimonials

Lisa - Auburn, ME

I have had the distinct honor to work with David both in person and online for the past 3 years. I am a therapist and have received many years of therapy. Nothing has moved me closer to my authentic self in such a short time as Core Energetics. David is a gifted practitioner, a healing presence and very attuned and intuitive. He's fun to work week yet will challenge me in all the most welcome ways. I hold the deepest respect and gratitude for his excellent care and skillful facilitation. I know several people who see him regularly - we all are in awe of his way of working towards transformation.

Karen - Lorain, OH

David is a gifted healer, facilitator and teacher. He has a deep understanding of how trauma and limiting beliefs are locked in the body - the cellular memory - and how to release them. His intuition, compassion, skill and sense of humor, create an environment for his clients to experience rapid transformation. David knows how to create a safe space for healing work, whether one on one or in large groups. A healer can only take their clients as far as they themselves have gone and David has clearly done his own deep healing work!

Sarah – Aurora, OH

Working with David has been a life changing experience. His expertise and kind heart have greatly propelled me forward in my life both professionally and personally. The ways in which he has assisted me in unwinding long buried trauma in my body has been life giving. If you are on the fence about booking an appointment, don't hesitate! A million thanks for this soulful practitioner!!

Kyle – New York, NY

I had the pleasure of taking three different workshops with David. While the context and focus of each workshop was different, they all deeply touched me. With David, I explored practical techniques to be more grounded in my daily life and gain awareness of how I can use my own energy to heal others. I found greater appreciation for my ability to express my inner creativity and beauty through movement. And, I allowed myself to release stress and trauma through a truly magical experience that left me feeling profoundly grateful.

In each instance, I was able to enter into the experience without expectation, and with my normal skepticism intact. David provided meaningful context for what he was teaching and allowed us to learn through experience. At times, I found myself unexpectedly emotional, and I had the sense that I was indeed touching on and processing some deep-seeded trauma that I wasn’t able to articulate – and didn’t really need to explain through words.

David is a gifted teacher and healer who is easy to relate to and wickedly funny. He creates a safe space and brings his own vulnerability to the table, so that he is able to be a teacher who is also on the journey with his students. I am so looking forward to working more time with David!

Maia – Akron, OH

When I was ready to address a deep-seated emotion that was hampering my ability to experience the joy of my life, I knew I wanted to work with someone who

1. Is exceptionally skilled in energy work
2. Is powerful enough to hold safe space for me
3. I could trust completely with my vulnerability

David Phillips exceeds these qualifications. David’s compassionate skill allowed me to fully inhabit my long-held emotion and fearlessly experience the energetic journey I needed to take. After working with David, I am completely free of those life-sapping negative emotions and experiences. I’m completely open to all the joy my life holds and fearless in the face of every new negative experience. Thank you David! You have my highest recommendation.

Heather – Akron, OH

I have had the good fortune to hire David as a facilitator and Core Energetics practitioner for my organization as well as for myself and my family.

At YWCA Greater Cleveland we worked with David to help us process and talk about some internal issues and difficult subjects. His calming presence and excellent facilitation skills, helped us to create a safe space, bring some issues to the forefront, and create action steps.

Personally, I have participated in a group workshop with David where he helped me process some difficult emotions through core body work. I did not realize how much emotion I was holding on to, and how that pent-up emotion was holding me back. Even though I was in a group setting, I felt that David was able to give each person (including me) the individual attention that they needed. He made me feel safe.

I trust and respect David, and when my 20 year old son was having some personal problems and struggling at university, I took him to work with David. Of course, I was not in the room when they were working due to patient confidentiality. However, I can say that my son was more hopeful and at peace after his work with David. Working with David seemed to help my son to be more confident and comfortable with himself.

Based on my professional and personal experiences with David Phillips, I recommend him with the highest regard.
