I had a very similar experience to many of the clients who have previously made their reviews. I had debilitating anxiety ever since I could remember (3-4 years old) which progressed into to multiple involuntary hospitalizations, money spent on psychotherapy where I felt chronically misunderstood and that I felt was formulaic and an overgeneralizing, "outdated" methodology. Years of this made me feel disempowered, and since my symptoms were not improving, I was eventually diagnosed multiple psychiatric disorders.
Ultimately, I was met with an array of subsequent treatment regimes via the health care system that never cared to truly appreciate the underlying reasons of the challenges that were symptomatic of a more intrinsic cause. To stress my case, I was experiencing overwhelming anxiety and quasi-delusions that would disrupt the quality of my day-to-day life for years before I started seeing Ameenah. It has been over a month of treatment, and although these symptoms aren't gone entirely and I don't expect them to, I've seen vast improvements to my mental and emotional health, as well as a newfound faith in myself.
I speculate this is b/c she actually carefully caters and curates the treatment program, paying attention to the client's actual temperament(s) and characteristics. That alone is what distinguishes her from more traditional forms of therapies.
Not only that, but she is a genuine, loving, resourceful and healing person who always takes as much time as you need to talk to you in a way that is productive and conducive to your healing journey. Moreover, she also takes an integrative, holistic approach which incorporates strategies to handle acute stressors, as well long-term strategies that get to the crux of your situation.
I highly recommend Ameenah because she gives you the foundations that further encourage independent growth, and what sets her apart is that she also is able to inspire sincere faith in oneself to live a life without limiting and confining beliefs.
Update on January 5, 2024:
I saw Ameenah two days ago for spiritual and mindset coaching and updated her on my progress on my healing journey.
She always answers my questions with earnest humility and sensibility.
While it has been months since I have had a hypnotherapy session, all that I have garnered and absorbed from previous sessions have been gestating within my subconscious mind and I have been latently cultivating and priming the lessons I've learned from her without needing to effortfully foster them.
Several months ago, it was debilitating for me to merely step outside my house, let alone talk to people while maintaining eye contact and maintain a self-assured posture (for a particular example), now I feel like although not 100% there, I feel much more grounded in my self-frame and feel so much progress towards healing CPTSD and I can let myself love myself by trusting in myself, hence being able to walk outside, have some conversations.
If I hadn't consulted Ameenah last summer, I would have surely tried to find services adjacent to her's but would not know where to go for certain. I highly value the time and efforts and work she' done with me, and will be coming back in the future as I feel necessary.
Update: September 23, 2024
I stopped seeing Ameenah for her hypnotherapy and spiritual coaching services a while back and resumed every week since late June of this year and I can say that my mind has sincerely acclimated to a different and more constructive and optimistic attitude overall.
Before, I was living in a way that was not honouring my authentic self—obstructed by personal obstacles that were prompted by an unhealthy subconscious mind, but after seeing her and identifying the core issues, I recognized what was impeding my self-developmental progress.
Finally, I know that there are a ways to go but I am in the midst of reconstructing certain neuropathways with the help of Ameenah to live a life that privileges who I really am at the core and to liberate myself from the reigns of negative thought distortions. :)
