Testimonials
Every day, even after engaging in many distracting activities, I would find myself battered by relationship stress. I barely had the mental energy or peace to have time for myself, my family, or my friends. My sessions with Rabiya provided me with the tools I needed. Rabiya would see the blocks in my relationship with my partner. She always encouraged both of us to hear each other and be honest with each other. I feel like my partner and I have been getting along better than before ever since I started therapy. Thank you for helping me overcome hurdles in our relationship.

My first session with Rabiya was life-changing. Suddenly, I had a different point of view towards our dying relationship and how I should be dealing with it. Instantly, I knew this was the guidance I needed. Rabiya helped me focus on myself and my strengths. Thanks to her, I feel better every day in terms of confidence, self-worth, and the way my partner and I deal with things. She gets 1000 thumbs up from my side!

I was feeling low due to anxiety issues and not being able to cope with them. Rabiya was really patient with me and gave me the required time to tell her how I was really feeling. She helped me understand the triggers and gave me easy-to-follow techniques to cope with daily anxiety. I feel so much stronger with each session. I would definitely recommend her to anyone suffering from anxiety issues like me.
