Your Solution – How, where, and connect

My family and I can’t recommend Samia highly enough. I first contacted Samia when my daughter was at rock bottom and as a family we were really struggling to cope and to find her the help she needed. Our daughter had previously been diagnosed with anorexia and was certainly not out of that battle but the bigger issue she was facing was her anxiety which had led to OCD. The anxiety was crippling her and she was exhausted. We had tried other therapists but, despite small glimmers of progress, we felt we were heading backwards not forwards. Our daughter was tired of trying new approaches and tired of trying new therapists but something had to be done. From that very first conversation I had with Samia, I felt confident that we had finally found the person that could help us. How right I was. It was clear from our daughter’s very first face-to-face session with Samia that she also felt that she had finally found the support she needed. Over the next few months, Samia worked with her both face to face but then in online therapy sessions, which to our surprise were just as powerful as those in person. Our daughter’s life has been transformed in large part thanks to Samia. She is such a different person to the one who entered that first therapy session, pretty sceptical that yet another therapist could help her. As our family put it, we’ve got our happy, smiling daughter back again. She is now a confident young lady who has all the tools to cope with her emotions. We will always be forever grateful to Samia for her help, warmth, kindness and expertise. Thank you so, so much.

I liked that Samia made me feel comfortable to say whatever I wanted without judgement. I felt like it was always a conversation we both contributed towards to solve issues, instead of a situation where I just pay money and in return I get text book answers. She is very easy to talk to and is constantly thinking about how we can get the most out of each session.

When I came to Samia I was depressed, anxious and had PTSD. I also felt helpless, worthless and had low self-esteem and confidence. Samia helped me to address all of these and because of that I will always be eternally grateful. Samia is amazing at her job…[she] not only got me over the most traumatic experience of my life thus far but has also equipped me to better manage my behaviors and feelings in the future, to be more present in today than worry about the future and have much more gratitude for everything good in my life…I couldn’t recommend Samia highly enough, I have had CBT therapy before, but this was just levels above.

From the moment I started my first session with Samia, she made me feel safe and comfortable. Her warmth and encouragement continued through all of our sessions, giving me the space to share so openly, which I usually find very hard to do. I really am thankful I met Samia to overcome some very challenging and complex issues, some of which I never would have been aware of without her and she seemed to tailor the tools and mechanisms to constructively help me deal with them. Our sessions felt like a conversation between two friends, with checkins not just on how I was doing but how Samia could improve and do things different which was very refreshing.

The treatment itself was very beneficial, mainly because Samia is such an empathetic therapist, she was very focused on ensuring that we were clear on what I wanted to achieve with the treatment and creating a programme to do that. I wouldn’t have any hesitation in recommending her services to others.

Samia is just amazing! This was my second round of therapy with Samia for PTSD issues, and I was a little apprehensive this time as the problem was severe regular nightmares and wasn’t sure these would ever stop. I had no need to worry as the work with Samia has stopped the dreams in their entirety and have also allowed me to think from a different perspective about the whole incident and begin to have some self-compassion for myself. Its difficult to put into words how grateful I am to Samia and just how good she is as a therapist. I guess the best compliment I can give is that without hesitation I would recommend Samia to close friends and family and she would obviously be my first and only pick if I ever needed help in the future.

This service has been life-changing for me and I am so grateful to Samia for helping me to overcome my needle phobia, which has for over 40 years hugely and adversely affected me. I now feel so much better.
