Hi, I'm Saima 👋

I look forward to meeting you and learning about your journey as a unique individual. I strongly believe that people have the capacity to move away from problems and towards richer alternatives for themselves.

I know taking the first step is always hard and speaking to someone you haven’t met before can be uncomfortable. I want to Thank you for taking the first step and let you know it’s very brave of you. I assure you that it will be a safe, non-judgemental environment where you can share your story at your own pace and comfort level. 

 

A bit about myself if it makes you feel more comfortable. I enjoy spending time with family and find gardening very therapeutic. I do love dabbling in interior styling & decorating.
