If you feel stuck, drained, lost, numb, and find it difficult to feel joy and happiness; if you feel the tension that is constantly activated and stealing your energy away; and if you feel exhausted and unmotivated; there is a great chance that you carry some undigested and repressed emotions and experiences. If Trauma is left unattended, it could diminish the quality of life. If you feel that life handed you more than you can handle, it can be paralyzing.
If that is how you feel and where you are, then allow me to hold a safe space for you to digest and release your repressed emotions and experiences. Through a holistic approach, I empower you to take a proactive role in your healing process as you gain control over your nervous system and consequently your life.
I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor and an Affiliate Somatic Therapy practitioner with the center of Integrative Somatic Therapy Practice (ISTP) and Somatic Breathwork (SBW). ISTP and SBW are holistic and integrative approaches to healing trauma, stress, and anxiety.

Mahvash is very skilled and so knowledgeable, though what really stands out to me is her kindness. She is so wise and how she shares this is in a way of kindness that is easy to receive.
