My Reviews

“Elissa is THE BEST! After suffering the trauma of an ectopic pregnancy that almost took my life, she was no doubt placed in my life by God to walk the healing journey with me. She not only helped me physically when western medicine could not, but also utilized somatic therapy to bring healing to my heart and soul. She equipped me with the tools to process my emotions and taught me how they affect the body. I would not be the woman I am today without her. I have evolved into a better person (spirit, soul and body) working with Elissa and for that I am eternally grateful!”

“I took a leap of faith in going to Elissa for treatment for some of my ailments and and one word comes to mind and that word is WOW!!!!!!! Let me say Elissa Solari is absolutely incredible, Lisa is a big supporter of veterans and as a combat veteran I can tell you that since I have been under her amazing, incredible care the results that I have seen for myself in my health and well being have been LIFE SAVING. The setting is peaceful, serene, calming and I always leave the sessions feeling at peace and with renewed hope. The service that Lisa provides is a truly, truly valued service that is extraordinary and I would highly recommend anyone to see Elissa.”

Elissa is absolutely amazing! I'm still new in my somatic/acupuncture journey but so far, its been amazing. Elissa provides a welcoming, judgement free zone and truly has a caring heart. So glad I am seeing her for my well being.

If I could put 10 stars, I would. I sought a consultation with her for various stubborn issues, and several months later, I am a different person. So thrilled there weren't many practitioners in the Valley to choose from, otherwise I might not have discovered how incredible of a healer Elissa is. When I go see her, I am seeing a therapist, a counselor, an acupuncturist, a friend, and most of all someone who can see through my ailments and see the True person that I was meant to be. I attribute so much of my current well being to her and I truly hope many others can be touched in the same way that I have been.

“Elissa is a skilled, intuitive practitioner whose treatments are the reason I encourage friends and family to seek out acupuncture as a healing modality in their own lives. Her care made a profoundly positive impact on my core health and wellness. Lisa is highly trained, deeply well-read, and in touch with the spirit, mind, and heart of Five Element medicine. This is easy to understand from the first meeting with her. As a healer, her kind, warm attention invited openness from me as a client and overtime, it became clear that her natural gifts for listening leads the way into her healing art. She sought to understand the picture of my health from the outside at a pace that was truly comfortable for me, respecting my boundaries and feelings, valuing them as integral to the process of building relationship. The time and focus she brought to the acupuncture treatments guided me in understanding my anxiety, depression, and emotional states—she is a great seeker/teacher to work with. Elissa is a great communicator, too, frequently checking in post-treatment and happy to take feedback that brings treatment in new directions. The healing knowledge and self-understanding I gained from working with her is truly priceless. She is really a gem in the world”

Elissa helped me through every step of my terrifying breast cancer diagnosis. She took the time to custom tailor every appointment so that it specifically targeted my symptoms as they evolved from week to week. She helped me build strength in my immune system, curb nausea, relax muscle tension, and feel more like myself then I ever expected to through this process. Her hunger for knowledge and passion for what she does is evident in every interaction and I cannot thank her enough for helping me through this!

“I've been working with Elissa for about six months now. During our initial visit she needled my hip to relieve the tingling and numbing from wearing a heavy backpack (i assumed the nerve was pinched by the hip belt) and immediately fire shot up and down my leg. I had feeling back in my thigh almost immediately for the first time in over a year. What started as a search for immediate pain relief from overuse injuries has turned into a beautiful journey together to get to the root of my chronic exhaustion and general lack of chi. Cannot recommend her highly enough for people struggling with past traumas (that means just about everyone), people who work their bodies hard (for work or play), and anyone looking to let go of something so they can build something better. It's more than a physical experience and she treats so much more than your symptoms. She has been incredibly professional, warm, creative, and intuitive in each of our sessions and I can't wait to see where the next treatment leads.”

“Elissa was able to help when traditional medicine did nothing for me. After talking to a couple of acupuncturists that were very conservative in their ability to help me, I called Elissa. She said that she had not treated my specific ailment before, but was confident she could help me. About 36 to 48 hours after her initial treatment, my symptoms had significantly abated. With in a week and after the second treatment, I felt like a new person. I quit taking the medication that had been prescribed (but did nothing to relieve my symptoms). I was a pessimist before, but am a believer now. The doctor I was seeing ordered many expensive tests and barely even talked to me about my problem. Elissa talked with me for at least 45 minutes before she even started treatment. I cannot sing her praises enough. She comes highly recommended by me!”

“Elissa is an incredible acupuncturist that truly cares about healing at the root of the problem. You will never be just another client with her. She loves what she does and it can be felt in treatments!”

The way in which Lisa merges Jungian psychology and somatic therapy with her deep understanding of astrology is absolutely illuminating and catalyzing. With great care and nuance, she’s able to weave meaning from the natal chart in a way that’s grounded in self-empowerment and healing. Elissa’s interpretations resonated profoundly, leaving me with the sense that my journey is exactly as it should be, and helping me to identify places in my psyche and spirit that could use more attention, compassion or cultivation.

Using the power of archetypes, mythology and narrative, her session hit home in a way that little else could. For example, by describing my Mars placements as being, “like a warrior without a sword,” Elissa encouraged me to reflect on the areas of my life where I lose my power, fail to stand up for myself and let others dominate & dictate my sense of self. Because her astrological approach beckons this level of self-awareness & self-reflection in such a positive way, my reading became a remarkable tool to use in accordance with other healing modalities, including the work around complex PTSD and childhood trauma I am doing with an EMDR therapist.

Whether you’re new to astrology or have looked to the stars for clues about yourself for a long time, the clarity in Elissa’s interpretations offers such resonance and personal meaning, I cannot recommend it highly enough. Not only did her reading spark meaningful discussions in therapy, encouraging greater introspection, self-awareness, and action, it also left me feeling more excited about the future than I have ever been. I am grateful for the opportunity to work with Elissa in this capacity; her approach has provided me with a new framework around which to examine my life and a uniquely empowered way to lean in and forge forward."
