Sama is an amazing listener! He's able to understand how you're feeling, where your feelings are coming from, and give you a different perspective and the tools you need to be able to move on from whatever is it that you're going through.
Written on Aug 29, 2024 after therapy with Sama for 3 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self esteem, and coping with life changes
Therapy is not easy, especially when you work with a therapist like Sama who knows how to ask the right questions that guide you to explore those deep thoughts and feelings that you usually archive because they bring you discomfort.
I found the sessions with him to be something similar to a confession that would in the end allow me to forgive and understand myself better, have clarity of mind and have a sense of relief.
He won't give you any answers but will push you to find your own and in the end will summarize the discussion so that you will understand if the answers or conclusions you arived at are meaningful and of good value to you.
If you are new to therapy, be prepared to open the door to that stuffed closet that is your mind and embrace the opportunity to at last sort up everything in there that acts like an anchor and prohibits you from having that sense on peace and happiness you that you so miss.

I honestly feel that Sama tries his best to understand the concerns of the clients that he is working with at the time. He does try to think of different possibilities to address a situation. I like his style of allowing the client to self-reflect to find the answers that may be there but difficult to admit. I would recommend Sama to anyone who is going through a troubling period.
