Thoughtful Reflections from Clients

Testimonials

  • What makes Sahar exceptional is how precisely she attunes to your energy - not just to what you say, but what you avoid, rush past, or express without realizing it. I came to her feeling creatively blocked, frozen by fear and perfectionism, constantly overthinking instead of acting and she completely changed the way I relate to both my goals and my inner world. She holds space with so much presence, patience, and care, especially in moments when I didn't have the words or felt overwhelmed. She helped me slow down enough to actually physically feel the sensations beneath my paralysis. She has a soft and joyful approach that made me look forward to our sessions. I felt open, creatively energized, and deeply held after each session. After 6 months working together, I feel an immense lightness in parts of myself that I'd spent decades trying to achieve. I'm endlessly grateful for her!

    Coaching Focus: Creative Blocks & Reconnecting with Creative Spark

  • Sahar is a master at picking up on the smallest shifts in behavior / avoidance of certain parts of yourself and helping you sit with them and face them. She knows when to push further and when to call in grace for yourself. She is a master empath who is able to recommend practices and activities that are uniquely tailored to you so that you can meet your personal/emotional/professional goals through doing more of what you already do. She has helped me tune into my body and befriend the parts I don't like about myself. She has given me multiple frameworks and journaling prompts to sit with, which have cracked open a new level of authenticity and self-expression that I feel like I now have access to. Could not recommend her work more if you want to transform into the reality that's waiting for you!

    Coaching Focus: Developing Self-Trust & Quieting the Comparative Inner Critic

  • Sahar saw through my words no matter what was said, into my expressions and therefore the feelings that appeared as I was talking. I've always been a good "masker" but that was impossible with her! Because she could see behind my words and softly encouraged the exploration of the actual feelings, a safe space was provided to fully explore them. By learning to acknowledge and process the physical sensations of the emotions occurring, I was able to be totally honest with myself, and her, without judgement or concern regarding interpretation by Sahar or my internal critics. Also, giving me permission and encouragement to move however, whenever, and in whatever manner my body desired was freeing."

    Coaching Focus: Developing Confidence & Regulate Big Emotions

  • A friend referred me to work with Sahar when I was super burnt out and in a state of constant urgency after years working in policy and immigration advocacy. I didn’t realize how much of that weight I was holding in my body until everything began to shut down. Sahar created a space where I didn’t have to be strong, perfectly articulate, or productive (which is very, VERY difficult for me.) I could let my guard down, slow my pace to listen inwardly, rebuild safety in my body, and recognize that rest and softening are essential to the collective effort of social change too. This allowed me to open up to new ways to stay grounded and connected to my integrity without burning myself out.

    Coaching Focus: Burn Out, Perfectionism, and Self-Compassion

  • Sahar was incredible in helping me not only understand the benefits of somatic coaching, but actually feel it in my day to day. As someone who has historically focused on intellectualization my emotions, Sahar's somatic practices helped me become more in touch with the way my emotions and feelings actually moved.
