Hi and welcome to our profile page for The Viking Buddha. My name is David Bentley, aka The Viking Buddha. I have been a therapist since 2004. I am a qualified Hypnotherapist and Consultant Master Hypnotist. I am also a qualified Stress Management Consultant and experienced Mental Health & Wellness Practitioner. At around the same time as qualifying as an Hypnotherapist I also qualified as an Holistic Therapist including different massage techniques and as a clinical reflexologist. Over the years I have added many different models of cognitive therapies and Subconscious models to my qualifications such as CBT, DBT, SFBT, Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Gestalt Therapy, REBT, Neuro Linguistic Programming, EMDR and a number of other modalities. I am also a meditation and breathwork practitioner, yoga nidra teacher, and laughter yoga practitioner. From a physical wellbeing point of view i have also studied functional medicine and precision health, the natural cancer protocol, autoimmune solution, and also studied deeper about menopause, insulin resistance, gut heath, type 2 diabetes reversal, and adrenal fatigue and inflammation. As a therapist who first started out being qualified as a Hypnotherapist, I found that this was without a doubt the best technique for the mind, but also wanted to become an all round mind management expert, and i wanted this wholistic approach for the mind and the body alike, as its not enough to just fix the mind or the body. In modern life many of us have gone through many mental challenges including stress, mental health issues, trauma, abuse which need dealing with to live a healthy life, but also modern food and tixins also but so many pressures on teh human body such as the Standard American Diet, junk food, modified foods, environmental toxins etc, which affect our gut health, adrenals, thyroids, and many problems start in the gut, and also with problems such as insulin resistance which eventually leads to adrenal fatigue and autoimmune problems. It is my passion to help people improve their lives both mentally and physically. My other interests and passions also fit into this process which include epigenetics, neuroplasticity, and quantum embodiment. I am also a transformational life coach and a law of attraction coach, and I have already published two books 'The Awakening' and 'Radical Wellness' both of which are available in paperback and e-book format around the world. I have three more books due out in 2025, with a further three planned for 2026. I am also an experienced motivational speaker and workshop facilitator and my dream is to bring our Viking Buddha workshops and retreats all around the world to help as many people as we can.

Bohdan Hlushko built his product perspective across multiple disciplines, from software development to managerial leadership. That cross-functional background continues to shape how he approaches strategy today.   With 8+ years in B2B SaaS, Bohdan has helped startups move from idea to execution and growth. He has worked inside the chaos of early-stage teams, stood between founders and developers, translated vision into delivery, and built more product strategies that one can count.   His expertise sits at the intersection of product strategy and validation, as well as revenue growth. He helps startups define what to build and how to win before they waste months building something impressive but irrelevant.   Bohdan believes that great products are not born from inspiration alone. They emerge from disciplined thinking, uncomfortable questions, validated assumptions, and the courage to remove more than you add.   A former developer, relentless note-taker, and bestselling author, he treats product building as both system and confession — a process of testing possibilities, rejecting illusions, and occasionally being proven wrong in public.   He works with founders who want more than growth theatre. They want products that deliver real impact: aligned with user needs, operationally sound, and credible to investors.

Tiffani Wadley, LCSW, is the founder of Ridge Creek Therapy, a psychotherapy practice based in Henderson, Nevada, specializing in trauma recovery, EMDR intensives, and individualized mental health treatment. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, she works with adults navigating the lasting effects of difficult experiences, complex emotional patterns, and challenges that often remain unrecognized as trauma. Her clinical approach is grounded in the understanding that trauma is not defined solely by what happened to someone, but also by how those experiences continue to influence their emotions, beliefs, relationships, and responses to the world. She is particularly passionate about helping individuals recognize connections between their past and present that they may have spent years overlooking. Tiffani has experience working with high-achieving professionals, caregivers, and individuals who appear capable and successful on the outside while privately navigating emotional distress, disconnection, or persistent patterns they struggle to understand. Her work integrates evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and other trauma-informed interventions. Through Ridge Creek Therapy, she offers EMDR intensives designed to provide focused, individualized trauma treatment within a structured and supportive setting. Her approach emphasizes thoughtful preparation, meaningful therapeutic work, and integration beyond the treatment itself. At the heart of her work is a belief that people are not permanently defined by what they have experienced. Through her clinical practice and writing, Tiffani seeks to make trauma more understandable, challenge misconceptions about healing, and help individuals recognize that lasting change is possible. Her guiding philosophy is reflected in Ridge Creek Therapy's mission: Healing at the root. Growth on the ridge.

Stella Dimitrakakis, PT, DPT, OCS, CFMT, PCES, SFMA L1 is a Doctor of Physical Therapy and the Founder of Soma Vita Physio & Wellness in New Jersey. She earned her Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Touro College in 2009 and has since pursued advanced post-doctoral specialization. Stella became a Certified Functional Manual Therapist™ (CFMT) through the Institute of Physical Art in 2019—a distinction held by fewer than 1% of licensed physical therapists in the United States. In 2022, she earned her Board Certification as an Orthopedic Clinical Specialist (OCS), a credential achieved by approximately 4% of physical therapists nationwide. She is also a Pregnancy and Postpartum Corrective Exercise Specialist. With over 17 years of clinical experience, Stella specializes in orthopedic rehabilitation, pelvic health, TMJ dysfunction, and complex musculoskeletal pain. She works with active adults across the lifespan—from postpartum women rebuilding strength to individuals seeking long-term resilience and performance optimization. Her approach integrates advanced manual therapy, movement optimization strategies, strength development, and nervous system regulation to restore function and future-proof the body. Dr. Stella began her healthcare journey as an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT-B), where she gained early exposure to emergency medicine and acute care. While she initially considered a career in emergency medicine or nursing, she was drawn to physical therapy for its non-invasive, holistic approach to healing. The ability to restore function through movement and hands-on care—without reliance on surgery or medication—ultimately shaped her professional path. Guided by a holistic philosophy, she incorporates principles of mindfulness, breathwork, and movement science to support whole-body wellness and sustainable longevity.
