My daughter and I have been working with Mateja since July 2012. Initially, we scheduled a session due to my daughter having severe headaches, anxiety, and depression. She has been homeschooled due to her medical issues and she felt very isolated. In the course of therapy, she learned how to use stress release techniques including breathing, guided meditation, self-hypnosis, and Emotional Freedom Technique (tapping). After just a few months, her headaches became more manageable, she felt better – healthier, more energized, and happier. She started to open up and share what was bothering her, and she started doing better at school. After a year and a half working with Mateja, she is now attending college and having excellent grades; she is making new friends, and her headaches are not as severe and not as frequent. She has become a confident young woman and is being discharged from therapy. We are all proud of her. This would not have been possible without Mateja’s gentle care and guidance. I highly recommend her.

“Mateja is a great therapist! She helped me during a difficult time. I learned coping skills, different approaches to my thinking, and ways to alleviate anxiety. In just a short period of time, I feel much better. Mateja has a certain way about her that makes you feel comfortable and she is very patient and understanding. Thank you for all of your help!”

“Mateja has been a tremendous guide for my journey to greater self-appreciation and relaxation. She is a patient and calming presence.”

“After trying 2 other therapists and finding trouble connecting, I found Dr. Petje. She is patient and proactive, understanding, easy to talk to, and incredibly kind. I have been working with Dr. Petje for 9 months now. The progress we have made together is noticeable to me and those around me. I recommend her to anybody who wants to not only mend the past but gather new tools for the future.”

Kayla Sue

“I have been working with Mateja for about nine months now and I can honestly tell you that she has made a huge difference in my life and has helped me overcome so many obstacles that had been holding me back for many years. She always seems to have the just-right resources available to help in whatever circumstance I am facing or issues I am trying to overcome.”

She recommended the book “The Ultra Mind Solution” by Mark Hyman which has helped me gain a much better understanding of proper nutrition and has helped me to FINALLY start taking off some of those unwanted lbs. She has recommended parenting classes that helped my wife and me to learn about positive parenting techniques. She has recommended Guided Meditations and natural supplements to help me sleep peacefully through the night, and books on relationships and so much more.

“Then Mateja will help you get out of your own way and will offer you the best tools to get back to where you once were and beyond. I feel very blessed to have her work with me, I just had to have faith. Definitely, I would highly recommend Mateja. She has helped many and is more than qualified to improve your current situation.”

P. S. Boca Raton

She helped me to be confident, to get rid of insecurities, to stop being so hard on myself, to be reborn again leaving the past in the past and all the bad and hurtful experiences. Mateja is very professional and committed to helping you ask the same commitment from patients. She gave me tools that helped me to understand a new world of renovation and embrace a new beginning full of positive possibilities. I am practicing meditation today, healthy eating, positive self-talking, and a lot more that she gave me to be a new person. My life changed, spiritually, internally and I would love for people that need help so don’t hesitate and work with Mateja, SHE IS THE BEST. Thank you!!

She is quite knowledgeable in the field of psychotherapy and healing. She treats her patients on all levels, Mind, Body & Spirit

Jennifer Burke

Mateja is excellent at quickly getting to the heart of the matter, and thoughtfully helping clients reduce stress and live loving and fulfilling lives. I highly recommend her.

“I went to see Mateja for a gambling addiction that I just could not get out of. Not only did she help me beat my addiction, but she has also taught me so much more! Mateja has shown me how to control my anxiety with tapping. The meditation she introduced me to is so calming and relaxing. Her words and knowledge and the tools she gives (that I continue to use on a daily basis) have made me look at the world totally differently. See I did not realize how much I was missing. I have taken control over my own life again thanks to what Mateja has taught me. My life has been changed forever for the BETTER in so many ways. I can not Thank Mateja enough for all her help, wisdom, and knowledge she has shared and taught me.”

Karen - Boynton

I have known Mateja for over 10 years. We have been very close friends as we are both from Slovenia. She is kind, compassionate, and always ready to listen to others in need. She had gone through a lot of challenges in her life and is able to relate to many issues that her clients go through, including relationships issues, depression, anxiety, stress, and much more. She has been very helpful to me when my mom died and when I had challenges in my relationships. I think we all need help at times. Don’t wait to feel better! Get help today by calling Mateja!

I worked with Mateja for only four months expecting to need a longer time. However, she listened, understood completely, and gently got to the point, providing just the right tools to address some desired changes. One great thing about her is that she has quite a few tools and will adjust as you are comfortable. Her point first and foremost, is your health. I would recommend and use her again!

Debra H

Mateja is a great professional and highly qualified psychotherapist and coach. She has a beautiful nurturing energy that makes you feel at ease and safe. I highly recommend her!

That’s how I would define Mateja Petje of Create Her Bliss and Holistic Coaching International. I have always found her to be genuine and deeply CARING in helping others. Her journey in life has made her uniquely qualified to understand, empathize and facilitate healing. She has both the official credentials and experience from her formal education as well as training and experience in numerous alternative methods of healing. Also, she continues to educate herself in new methodologies. This enables her to have all of the tools available for SHARING with each individual to create his/her optimal healing journey. Now is a great time to reach out to Mateja for kind and discreet assistance.

After my mother passed away and I felt as though I was at a crossroads in my life as well as in my relationship, I sought the help of Mateja. Without pressure or judgment, she helped me come to grips with the decision I ultimately had to make and gave me tools to use in order to come to that difficult decision. She provided me with many helpful tips, tools, and resources to achieve my goals in life that I will continue to use throughout my life. I learned a great deal from Mateja and her methods and am grateful I sought help from her.

Glad to hear we can work together. Yes, I have to admit. I walked out of there smiling. See I feel like you and I will be opening up some big door. My lessons always seem to come the hard way. I usually have to have huge catastrophes to bring me where I am “supposed” to be. You felt like an old friend. Smiling at me when I said certain things and I felt comfortable sharing with you exactly what I believe I need at this time in my life. I am so excited that you are a bit psychic too. So I look forward to the knowledge you will share with me. Thank you so much!!!

After being in traditional therapy and making no progress, I explored the option of holistic therapy with Mateja. I loved that her approach was focused on me and how to move forward with my anxiety, negative thoughts & relationship perceptions, instead of focusing on the problems and where they stemmed from. With EFT, affirmations, and tracking my moods, created more self-awareness around my emotions and where they were coming from. I can happily say that I went from living in a place with high levels of anxiety to virtually none & I am a much happier person all around! She has given me tools that I will continue to utilize for a long time as I continue the healing process. I can’t say enough amazing things about Mateja!

JM 11/2016

When my marriage ended Mateja was there to help me put the pieces of my life back together. Through meditation, visualization, and NLP she showed me how to let go of things that no longer served me in achieving my goals. What I liked most about therapy with her is that she gave me tools that I will continue to use for years to come. The time spent with Mateja was truly valuable and added peace to my life.

Anna, Boca Raton, FL

While dealing with post-concussion syndrome, and chronic migraines I hit a point where I felt lost and unable to control my stress. Mateja guided me through those feelings of stressful uncertainty and taught me the tools to combat my worst moments. I’m walking away calm, confident, and better equipped to take on everything that the world throws against me. Mateja, I cannot thank you enough!

Bri, Boca Raton, FL, Oct 25, 2016

My wife and I were searching for a therapist to open up a space of communication. We have been married for almost thirty years, have two adult daughters, and have built a marriage on a solid foundation. We have been best friends throughout but lacked an intimate relationship for many years. After our initial few sessions with Mateja, our relationship had a dramatic shift. Mateja provided us with the tools for our breakthrough. She was the most caring and qualified therapist that we had experienced. Today, after just two months of therapy our life has improved dramatically. We will be forever grateful to her for her fine work.

Mateja was very helpful in resolving some deep-rooted issues I had with my sister, her therapy was useful and I enjoyed her sessions were very relaxing.

Cyndi B.

I worked with Mateja to reduce my high anxiety levels through counseling, guided meditation, and EFT tapping. Now I can honestly say that I have accomplished more in the last 4 months than I have in a very long time. She helped me to break through my fears which were holding me back from achieving the success I desire. As a result, I gained more control of my life and I feel more assertive, confident, and empowered. I am extremely grateful for that.

Ruthie

I am very glad to have chosen Mateja as our marriage counselor. My husband and I were going through a very difficult time, It was so bad that we were contemplating getting a divorce. I decided to search for a good marriage counselor and after reading a lot of profiles on the internet, I decided to choose Mateja. After a year of counseling, we are the happy couple we were at the beginning of our marriage. I can’t stress enough how important it is not only to commit ourselves to the inner workings of the Imago approach but also to have a good therapist, and that’s what I found in Mateja. Yes, I highly recommend her.

Fabiola

I previously attended a stress reduction workshop in the beginning of May where Mateja implemented the meditation portion. Before attending class, I was extremely stressed and somewhat skeptical that a workshop would really reduce my stress levels. I was so pleasantly surprised. After the meditation, I never felt so relaxed and left the workshop with a positive feeling that has stayed with me since. I plan on continuing to attend these workshops when time permits and highly recommend Mateja, who did a phenomenal job.

Carol B

I participated in Mateja’s Stress to Bliss call this past Wednesday 9/11/13 which was great! Mateja offered some very practical and easy-to-use stress-busting strategies!

Denise P.

Great teleclass yesterday Mateja Petje! Love learning new ways to decrease and eliminate stress. And your meditation at the end was very relaxing. I had not been meditating for a few days and this made me realize why I need to get back to it. Looking forward to more of your classes in person and on the phone.

Joanne M.

I thoroughly enjoyed Mateja Petje’s “intro to EFT” workshop. I’ve heard of EFT and tapping but never experienced it before. Mateja made it quite comfortable and personal so that it was easy to grasp the concepts and feel like I could do this at home. I honestly felt more relaxed afterward, and I could truly see how this process could be of tremendous help in times of stress. I will absolutely attend more of Mateja’s workshops and classes. It’s a pleasure to have met her!

Candy C.

I enjoyed the way you presented the material along with the little quiz to determine our stress level. You gave some very practical ways to alleviate holiday stress or at least to make it less stressful.

Shirah P.

Ms. Mateja Petje was a guest speaker at our recent woman’s club meeting. We found her to be insightful and inspirational. Mateja’s views on life, the importance of reducing stress in our lives, and her methods to reduce stress are wonderful. I would recommend her to anyone who wants help with dealing with the stress in their life.

Pam Militello, Deerfield Beach

Mateja Petje is a true holistic coach with a wealth of personal and professional training and experience. Drawing upon her own strength, fortitude, and personal resilience, having left a Communist country with little money and a big dream, she naturally sees the potential and possibility for greatness in others. Her empathy and positive regard for her clients allow them to face their fears and overcome their roadblocks and inhibitions. They discover, with Mateja’s gentle guidance, the ways, and means to bring back their own health, aliveness, and personal vision. Mateja, as her fiancé describes her, is an “earth angel.” She has been brought here to help others heal. And she does it with an attitude of sensitivity, caring, and compassion.

Erica Goodstone, Ph.D., LMHC, LMT

Thank you Mateja for coming to speak to our group on Tuesday, June 16, 2015. Your topic regarding dealing with stress on a more holistic approach gave the attendees a practical and a “ready to implement” alternative. Thank you for your support in helping our mission at WLEN as well as being an inspiration.

Carol O’Neil, CDFA™* President, WLEN

I’ve known Mateja for about 10 years. Initially, she hired me as her Life Coach as she was struggling with some personal and professional challenges. We immediately established an excellent rapport. As we are now colleagues I can with certainty say that, Mateja is a deeply intuitive, resourceful, and resilient individual who has overcome many challenges in her own life; and because of this has developed a deep compassion and empathy for others. She is an excellent psychotherapist. I highly recommend her services to anyone who is struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, stress, and challenging relationships.

Mara Fisher L.C.S.W., M.C.C.Relationship Coach & Therapist at Bridge of Life Coaching & Counseling Services

Mateja has an excellent reputation as a therapist and life coach.

Her holistic approach fully embraces the fabric of our philosophy – that the problem is not the whole story, but only a part of the experience of a person. Mateja consistently seeks out new and unique knowledge and training to best incorporate teachings and therapies from which a wide variety of clients can internalize and benefit.

Seth Grossman, Psy.D., Licensed Psychologist, Director, The Center for Psychological Fitness

I was extremely pleased with the services that I have received from this provider. Not only that she is very knowledgeable but she is very compassionate and genuine. She listens well and responded to all my questions. My girlfriend and I had a lot of problems due to our divorce and we both had baggage from our previous relationships. We also lost connection and she was able to get us back on track. Her Imago approach really works! I highly recommend her.

I attended Mateja’s meditation seminars to learn more about ways to make my mind calm and peaceful. In our fast-paced world, I felt the need to learn how to let go of stress, anxiety, and worry. Mateja taught us how to relax and breathe consciously. Her extensive knowledge and calming voice made this an enjoyable experience, and I left the group being considerably calmer and more positive. I look forward to training meditation with her in the future.

In my business of managing partners across many time zones in the fast-moving technology field, maintaining balance and reducing stress are essential to effective management. Mateja has helped me to achieve both. I’ve integrated her principles into my life and have shared its working value with partners. In addition, I must add that Mateja’s presentation style is engaging and her capacity to listen well and truly hear is reflected by the insightful responses she gave me to some of the probing questions I asked. Thanks, Mateja.
