Testimonials

Samina has helped me to face my shadows and wounds, and more important than that, she helped me to (re-)discover my gifts. She believed in my strengths and inner light in times when I couldn’t find them myself. (…) I especially enjoyed the dance workshops I’ve done with Samina – participating in her DANCEmandala has been very magical and freeing.

I found Samina’s workshops very engaging and interactive where we all got very involved and learnt through doing not just listening. I was impressed with how Samina was able to hold the space and keep everyones’s attention even in the midst of difficult detoxes and strong personalties.

Samina is indeed a very special individual, she has stellar educational credentials and has an impressive resume of varied experiences, but she also has that very rare gift of being able to meld her wealth of formal education and experience with an instinctive ability to ‘read’ people.

Her mastery of creating interesting workshops and discussion groups as well as her ability to hold a safe place for participants is extraordinary. (…) Samina helped guide me towards a better and more genuine life, I recommend Samina and her work with the highest of praise and encourage anyone interested in working with her to not miss the wonderful  opportunity!

Samina has a thorough knowledge of tools used in general therapy but what I found most helpful, was her holistic approach to therapy. (…) I found some inner peace and acceptance that I have never felt my entire life! (…) I cannot thank Samina enough for the changes she has helped me make in my life!

The sessions I had with Samina were without doubt the most life changing ones I’ve ever done. She has this knack and she uses it so gently that before you know it you are welcoming back lost parts of yourself that you didn’t even know were gone. (…) That is priceless and so is this lady.

Samina compassionately guided me as I searched for the next path to take in my life. She taught me about the power of self-compassion through gentle exercises and I always felt supported and cared for. Samina’s dancing workshops were fabulous (as well …)

I began working with Samina at a time when I was very vulnerable and confused emotionally. She helped me realise the importance of the body in the healing process. I also learned about the value of release and expression of our emotions. This has made a huge difference in how I take care of myself.

My experience of Samina is that kindness and compassion are part of her make up; that her dedication to serving her heart and others her makes her the excellent guide and practitioner she is. (…) Some of the wisdom she imparted to me has stayed with me, years afterwards (…)

I had seen a handful of counsellors and had never felt comfortable fully opening up until I found Samina. Aside from her plethora of psychological knowledge, Samina takes an eclectic approach to fit the needs of her clients (…) I would highly recommend Samina to anyone dealing with addiction, or just needing some guidance through the struggles in life.

After years of dealing with various kind of therapists, I was feeling pretty jaded and not convinced that another therapist could offer anything new. I thought I’d seen and heard it all, until I met Samina. Samina was able to connect on a much deeper, more authentic, human level; not just clinical. (…) I can honestly say that her workshops, combined with our other sessions, helped to create a positive and significant shift in my emotional intelligence.
