Ms Ammarah is a magician. I don't open up easily but I felt very comfortable with her from the very beginning and she had the exact words to help me. Will definitely go back to her for further consultation.

Dr Ammarah was very kind and courteous at all times. The experience was great and I felt completely at ease to discuss my mental health & wellbeing with her. She helped me with advice on how to meet my mental health goals and provided me with a non biased and non judgement space to do so. I highly recommend her.

I immediately felt comfortable with Dr Ammarah, she has a very soothing vibe. She let me take the lead on the discussion, allowing me to take it at my own pace. Express myself and present solutions catered to my needs. I’ve been therapists before and it always feels like a one way conversation, so I enjoyed having an actual conversation. It felt human, and it felt okay to feel the way I do. Would defo consider coming back as a regular patient
