Client Testimonials

'2021 was a rather difficult transitioning year for me in different aspects of my life. The effects of COVID-19 further accentuated the situation. I reached out to Saba for guidance and counsel regarding the emotions I was experiencing and living with. This was my first experience with counselling and was sceptical about it initially. Through the sessions, Saba created a safe and comfortable space for me that helped me unwind and understand my emotional state. She was patient, calm and empathetic all along. She offered me practical ways to cope with my emotions and gently nudged me to ponder upon certain behavioural patterns of mine. My trust in the support she provided grew more during the follow-up sessions when she would briefly summarise what I had mentioned to her previously and the steps taken towards addressing them. This made me feel that I was being heard attentively. Receiving counselling from her as a client has been very helpful in maintaining a healthy well being for me.'

'Saba’s counselling has helped me navigate difficult circumstances as a student working in an online set up amidst a global crisis. She’s been professional, empathetic & a wonderful source of knowledge and support. One can vouch for her skills and genuine interest and concern for her clients (ie university students like me).'

'Talking to Saba really helped me get in touch with my perspective on my relationships with other people, which really allowed me to tackle my anxieties at their roots and overcome them. She takes a very professional approach, while also listening with an open ear to the different events that I thought contributed to the way I felt. Saba asked me questions that I hadn't considered, as well as prepared short assignments with questions that made me think deeply about what was truly affecting me. All in all, not only was talking to Saba something I really looked forward to, but also very helpful in my journey as an adult.'

'I had found a counsellor who resonated really well with my style of counselling in a way that would be the most receptive for me. Every other conversation about my time at the University (and especially about the time during the pandemic) ends up with how much the counselling sessions with you helped me deal with the intensely draining stuff I was going through. Thank you for being patient with me, for hearing me out, for guiding me to a version of me who's kinder to myself, and the countless ways your approach to my counselling has left me deeply impacted in positive manners that I don't even know of yet.'

'Going to therapy was something that I knew I had to do for a while, but something I could never get myself to do. But when I finally took my first meeting, Saba made me feel safe and allowed for a conducive environment in which I could voice my concerns. She is thoughtful, kind and very easy to talk to. Many people say that therapy can be very heavy on oneself, but after every session, I felt as if some of the weight on my shoulders was lifted. I would highly recommend taking the time out to talk to her.'

'My sessions with Saba have helped me greatly with coming to terms with how I actually felt about situations by clearly expressing myself, systematically breaking down problems and working through things instead of ignoring how I felt. She has been very patient and supportive in helping me recognize the positive things. I am more than happy to recommend her as a counsellor.'

'A year ago, I had to make a sudden change in my counsellor so I began taking sessions with Saba. She made the entire process extremely comfortable. I found her to be extremely dedicated and invested in her clients, her approach helped me a lot.'
