Testimonials
After being in therapy with her for quite some time, I really appreciate that she doesnt rush the process and allows me to work through difficult things at my own pace.
Ms Rafeah always takes the time to check in with me at the beginning of every session and gives me the space to be completely myself. Sometimes I just need to vent, complain or express whatever I am feeling without filtering myself, and she allows me to do that without making me feel judged.
During this session, we started working more deeply on inner child healing. She was very patient in helping me understand how some of my current emotions and reactions may be connected to what I experienced growing up. She explained things in a way that helped me make sense of myself.
Ms Rafeah has been my counsellor for over two years and I am very grateful for the support she has provided throughout this time. She has created a safe and comfortable space for me to talk about difficult experiences at my own pace. I appreciate her patience, understanding and the way she guides me through things without making me feel judged. I have grown a lot through our sessions and I am very thankful to have found a counsellor I feel comfortable and safe working with
We are currently working on inner child healing, and Ms Rafeah has been very patient in guiding me through the process. She took the time to explain how some of the emotions and struggles I experience in my current life may be connected to things I went through during childhood. She helped me understand these connections in a way that made sense to me, while giving me the space and time I needed to process my emotions. I really appreciate how patient and supportive she has been, especially as this is not an easy area for me to work through.
She listen and understand my situation.
I can feel Ms Rafeah able to understand me when I’m trying to explain my situation. Talking with her , I feel comfortable that she is able to help me out on my emotional situation.
Rafeah has helped me discover childhood trauma that affected my adult life that was unbeknownst to me. And she helped me through the most difficult times in my life. Forever grateful that I found her and it was a perfect fit from the start.
