PopMatters[3]

David Maine, writing for PopMatters, gave the mini-LP five out of ten possible stars, calling it a "mixed-bag".[3] SLUG Magazine reported that the "five songs are enjoyable and worth the 27 minutes of listening time—especially if you're on a comfortable couch in a room with good mood lighting. I wasn't while listening to Healing, and it was still a pleasant experience".[1]
