Testimonial 2020
When I was 11 years old my mom died of breast cancer. After years of suffering my search for answers began. I had run a thousand miles, read so many self-help books and got help from healers who seemed to be in as much pain as I was or tried to connect to me in a way that felt superficial and disconnected. All they taught me was to avoid negative emotions or focus on something else. My aunt recommended I try Buddhist practices that require a lifetime of studies and way too many personal sacrifices. |
I had been listening to Christa on the Wisdom and Intuition Network Radio station for over 2 years when I finally decided to have an appointment. Within the first two hours of being on the phone with her, I learned more than in all the therapy I've had and the books I've read combined. I felt like I already knew what she was saying, but no one had ever explained it to me this way. It all started to make sense and for the first time, I felt that all the pieces were coming together and a heavy burden had been lifted off of my chest. I used to believe that I can get a little closer to Nirvana in my lifetime, but this has changed to feeling like I'm in Nirvana right now and here. I won't lie to you it takes time and dedication to practice and fill in the exercises. Sometimes it's hugely uncomfortable to apply what I learn from her, but for the first time since my mom died I'm completely at peace. It's like I'm totally free. I imagine a future where kids are given these tools in school. It would spare so many from being bullied, low self esteem and no one would feel isolated or that they don't belong. Thank you Christa you've changed my life!
Praise all around, M. S.

Testimonial on Yelp 2014
Christa is a pioneer in her field of expertise, she has the astute capacity to see what is invisible to most and hear what isn't being spoken but intuitively revealed by the patterns that her clients exhibit. Her work is transformational to the core. I enthusiastically recommend Christa to anyone feeling frustrated and confused by a physical, mental or emotional issue, especially when you've tried multiple ways to resolve it with little or no results.

Testimonial on LinkedIn 2012
Christa is very gifted healer and truly compassionate soul. She has a powerful ability to help people understand and release issues that are keeping them from their deepest joys and desires. I highly recommend Christa and her services to anyone interested in taking a deep dive in their heart, mind and soul and opening up to new empowering ways of looking at life. Lynne Biddinger, Founder at Unlock Potential |
Testimonial on LinkedIn 2010
Christa is one of the most phenomenal healers I know. Within my first couple of private sessions, I had removed a series of negative beliefs that were inhibitory to my happiness. She brought an awareness of life and spirit to me that I wouldn’t have realized for many more months, if not years. I am greatly indebted to this woman for the sense of awe and freedom I feel now. Her healing methods are subtle yet profound. The one thing that truly stands Christa out from throngs of healers is that she empowers you. By prompting you with questions, she essentially lets you figure |
things out for yourself and by doing so, allows you to create your own future rather than have someone else “tell” it to you. She relays techniques for helping you get in touch with your own Higher Self, and hones in on the specific emotions and feelings you experience when something is “right” for you. At the end of the session, she solidifies and rewrites outdated belief systems that are ingrained in our DNA with her powerful Opus Lux healing method. If you go to Christa but once in your life, you will feel the effects reverberate for years to come. Thank you for shining your light, Christa!

Testimonial on Yelp 2019
Working with Christa over 10+ years, I find myself having a distinct advantage in so many arenas of my life (weight loss, high performance work, marriage elevation, enriching friendships, and self-kindness). If you are reading this, chances are you are considering jumping in and I can promise you giving yourself the gift of support, tribe, and leveling up can be pretty priceless. Most of my family/friend circle benefit from the work she does with me so that my path is truest. Several can quote her sage--nss like "does this serve me?" or "this isn't serving me" as we navigate life. #lightforthejourney #evergrateful B.N. |
Testimonial on LinkedIn 2010
I have worked with Christa for several years, as have many of my friends and colleagues. She is a Medical Intuitive who has developed a DNA system that reveals for us a path that unlocks movement toward health and well-being. She provides an environment in which I become aware of my own intuitive intelligence and begin to heal my past and create a new future. She assists me in healing patterns of behavior that go back for generations and through that healing, defines who I will become. I can't thank her enough! Linda Sainz, Counselor/Consultant at PaxAmour, Ink |
Testimonial on LinkedIn 2010
Christa was extremely helpful to me both during a phone consultation and also in person. Some of the things that she was able to explain for me have allowed me freedom from regular upset and pain in my life. I still review the follow-up transcript she sent regularly and would highly recommend her. Willow Fish-Peterson, Real Estate Broker, Owner Sage Real Estate Investments |
Testimonial on LinkedIn 2010
Christa helped me through a really difficult time in my life and worked in a way to let me move on and not in a way which caused me to rely upon her.

Testimonial 2004
I suffered from horrible migraines since I was 10 years old and was tired of spending a good part of my life heavily medicated and sequestered in a darkened room. I was blown away with how accurate and insightful the Opus Lux DNAScan was and how easy it was for me to apply the changes I needed to make in order to heal my self. Never before had I considered that I could simply change how I talk to myself internally and my migraines would be gone. I have a new lease on life and am thrilled to know that I can fully participate in all of my family’s activities. Christa gave me the tools I needed to heal much more than just my physical body. I emerged empowered, inspired and enlightened. Thank you!” Christopher, Kona |
Testimonial on Facebook 2017
Christa helped me see aspects of myself that are awesome and amazing and previously unknown to me - but also aspects that were holding me back, and how to work with them. I like it that we get tools to use for transformation. I happen to work in a mostly western medical practice (physical therapy), and I refer to her when people have physical symptoms that need deeper healing from within. Jordan Larson, Owner at Active Physical Therapy |
Testimonial on Yelp 2015
I happen to Know Christa through a business group and social venues. I found her to be a genuine caring individual. She is deeply immersed in her practice and constantly seeking to improve her skills and knowledge. Every one who works with her becomes a true believer. It is a real pleasure to work with a high caliber intellectual such as Christa. Clive G. |
Testimonial on Yelp 2014
I have experienced Real Transformation working with Christa! It is amazing to me Christa has developed a system which gets to the heart and the head of the matter. Walking in to a meeting with her with no real agenda and she was able to uncover real concerns I had simply through clear one on one communication and true listening. I walk out of a meeting with Christa, with clarity solid action steps and energy. I feel a calm that seems to come from clarity and the energy that comes from release of mental, emotional and spiritual traps I've built for myself. Invest the time in yourself you deserve it. Thank you Christa you have supported me in changing my life!!! Billy M |
Testimonial on Yelp 2014
Christa's system is definitely powerful and transformational. I felt for the first time in my entire life that I was seen for who I was. I know from the work I do with individuals and couples that the gift of being heard and seen are priceless. I am able to discern my emotional habits and by doing that have created more of what I want and less of what I have resisted. Thank you Christa, you are a Godsend. Irene |
Testimonial on Yelp 2014
Christa is fantastic! I have been working with Christa for the last 6 months and through her help, I have finally gotten a handle on some long standing issues which have been unresolved through other methods. Her guidance and explanations are invaluable to tie together spiritual teachings and everyday "realities" so I have REAL workable techniques and solutions. Thanks Christa Chris Neale, DMD |
Testimonial 2008
I am a photographer and a lover of nature. I don’t however take pictures of nature. When asked why, it does seem an obvious match, I respond by saying I don’t feel as though a photograph could ever do nature justice. That is exactly how I feel about trying to articulate the role Christa has played in my life in a physical, mental, emotional and spiritual way. I could sit for hours, days, or maybe even months describing all that Christa has done for me through her God sent work. But what really amazes me is what she has taught me to do for myself. She is a practical spiritual tool box. She has provided a corridor for my heart to speak to my head, and my soul to speak to my mind. I am so grateful for her and to the universe for guiding me to this amazing woman. Dena Dechance-Udlock |
Testimonial 2006
Christa Pacheco is a gifted Medical-Intuitive. She has the ability to get right to the core of limiting belief systems that can cause emotional and physical imbalance. Christa’s unique approach to releasing the unconscious beliefs that run our lives is transformational. I have personally experienced significant breakthroughs that have propelled me forward in the direction of my life purpose. Her kindness and compassion combined with wisdom and insight have helped me to recognize these qualities within myself. I highly recommend Christa to anyone who is ready to transform their lives and experience spiritual freedom. Carol Gutzeit, Founder & President of Destination Satori |
Testimonial 2011
“Christa continues to facilitate progress and positive growth for me in infinite ways... Going through a divorce that came about unexpectedly, with three boys under the age of 8, with having no family in the area, and no means to support my self financially – I needed someone to help me turn the situation into something that could benefit me as opposed to swallowing me. I could have easily drowned or gotten stuck. Instead, I have managed to start my own business and live my life with joy. Many thanks to Christa and her approach to life - What is the Gift? – has helped me immensely!” Karen Croley, Author and Nature Trail Coach at A New Leaf 4 You |
Testimonial 2006
I have been fortunate enough to know Christa Pacheco for several years now. I stumbled upon the Avalon Healing Center through a recommendation from a friend of mine. I am so thankful for the advice I received to schedule an appointment with Christa. My life simply hasn’t been the same since. I've had so many influences is my life. One of the most powerfully intense influences comes from Christa. Christa is a Medical Intuitive and one of my greatest teachers. I'd gone to her for energy work for some time, and eventually began a year-long Energy Medicine certification program |
with her. She has such a gentle and loving spirit. Whenever I'm around her, I feel so encouraged, and I know that I can accomplish anything. She has helped me look at everything in life as a chance to love, be thankful, and learn from the actions of others. She is my personal Yoda. I love Christa like she's a very wise yet fun friend, and a second mother to me. Christa, I will never be able to thank you enough for all that you have done for me. I miss you terribly while currently living in Southern California. I so look forward to the day when our paths meet again. Until then, I strive to live up to your example, and I know that your unparalleled encouragement and guidance are lovingly waiting for me whenever I ask.
To anyone considering working with Christa Pacheco, I intend that you schedule an appointment with her immediately. Each of us deserves to be touched by Christa’s special form of Energetic Magic. You will simply be amazed… not only by Christa’s gifts that she is ready to generously share, but by the gifts she illuminates in every one of us.
I love you dearly, Christa. I intend the best for you always in Life, Love and all that lies between.

Testimonial 2008
I began seeing Christa over 8 months ago after I was diagnosed with an autoimmune liver disease. My traditional doctors prescribed me medicine with the indication that I may have to continue taking this medicine for the rest of my life. Since I was only 20 years old, something inside me would not let myself commit to changing my life in this way. So, on a whim, I listened to a friend's advice and scheduled an appointment with Christa. However skeptical I may have been, with each appointment I truly began to feel better inside and out, in every way possible, spiritually, emotionally |
and physically. All my remaining doubts left as three months after my first meeting, my blood tests showed extreme improvements in my auto-immune levels, without taking any sort of medicine or supplements whatsoever. It is absolutely amazing to me what Christa has helped me accomplish in my life. She truly helped me get in touch with myself, something I always wanted to do, but didn't really know how to do, and this had led to many positive changes in my health, attitude and energy. It is scary to think of the direction my life would have headed without the guidance and healing wisdom of Christa Pacheco, and I will be forever thankful for her aid in my healing process.

I have been working with Christa on and off for 10 years. She was the best referral I have ever been given. She has helped me with the highs and lows of life that we all experience. Every single time I leave an appointment with her I feel uplifted and know that everything will find its peace and place in my life. She is currently helping me transition to a new career that I have been passionate about pursuing for a long time, she is enabling me to do it with ease and grace, not fear. I am truly blessed to have met her and will continue to see her through the next 10 years. Sarah V. |
Testimonial 2008
Christa Pacheco is AMAZING! I would highly recommend her to anyone who is serious about improving their health and well being. Nine months beforehand I had hit a certain low. Uncomfortably aware of intense digestive, menstrual, and skin conditions that seemed to appear out of nowhere; I worked with a certified nutritionist, 2 acupuncturists, gynecologist, and 2 general MD's. The doctors didn't have a clue as to what was wrong after many tests, and the nutritionist and acupuncturists knew they were helping to relieve my symptoms, not treat the root cause. Four |
months into it I realized I had also reached a certain emotional/mental low...slipping back into old habits and ways of thinking that made me depressed and anxious. How did I get here?! Only months ago I felt alive and the strongest I'd ever been! At this point I sought counseling and found Christa via blessed referral. She has helped to enlighten me in ways I only dreamed possible. Only after five months with a determined desire to heal, I feel like a completely new person. :) My digestive, menstrual, and skin conditions are barely noticeable; my mental and emotional states are very clear, positive, and loving; but best of all I am 100% certain that I will no longer fall into old habits again, which were the seeds that caused it all. And that is the true blessing that Christa can provide.

Testimonial 2009
To anyone who is researching the possibility of working with Christa Pacheco, may the following words be felt by that place where only the deepest part of your heart can truly experience: Christa came into my life the year my Uncle Jack was transitioning out of this world. The night Christa shared with my family that Jack was ready to pass away, it changed our lives forever. In separate ways, we all did what each of us had to do to process this truth, and say our goodbyes. Jack passed away a few months following the initial meeting with Christa. |
For those of us who came to work with Christa, I know our lives have been blessed in deeper ways than I really can ever explain on a piece of paper. My heart, in the deepest parts, will share my story now. Christa is committed to helping people live their lives to the fullest.
I can't say how many times over the last few years, I have had the opportunity to release emotions that I didn't even know I could release. I have always left every session with a profound set of tools to work on myself. Some of the most difficult work on myself, might not have happened if it had not been brought out during my healing work with Christa.
Whether I have received energy balancing or intuitive counseling/healing, I have been changed in special ways. I have chosen to do the work on myself, that some may not be ready for. I feel that the DNAScan sessions have been the greatest tools for me. These allow one to work through old patterns, learn from past choices, and apply the new patterns for life changing results.
One of my favorite yoga teachers once said, "we are spiritual beings, trying to have a human experience"... Time and time again, Christa has reminded me of my spiritual side, and to enjoy it on my journey. If you consider working with Christa, know that you were attracted to one another for a deeper purpose. Enjoy Life!!
