Kind words about Somatic Experiencing with Mahyar:

Mahyar brings deep compassion and wisdom to our work, and helped me tremendously to just listen to, notice and be present with what happens, allowing me to just sit with intense feelings and let them pass. I've been able to work gently and easily through pain and lingering traumas I wasn't even aware of (but my body certainly was). Mahyar's presence, thoughtfulness and willingness to show up and do the work with  clients is beautiful and transformative. Anyone would be lucky (and smart) to work with her. ~ R.T.

Only from your heart can you touch the sky.
~ Rumi (via Barks)
