~~~ TESTIMONIALS ~~~
​
If you engage in this work it’s likely you will enter into unknown and vulnerable places. It’s essential that you have trust with your somatic healer. I trust Amir completely. He is loving, present, curious, funny — and intelligent on many levels. He is gentle and kind but also sharp and challenging in just the right ways. I truly feel like Amir has been doing this work with me since the beginning and I am deeply grateful for his guidance and love.

Before I started working with Amir, I was very disconnected from myself and was really struggling with low self–worth. Thanks to his guidance, I have grown so much. I have learned how to better recognize what is going on inside myself in the moment and to trust my gut feelings. I have gained the courage to speak up for myself and to ask for help when I need it. I am more present with the full spectrum of my emotions – I am more capable of sitting with uncomfortable feelings and I have more appreciation for the joyous ones. Amir is attentive, non–judgmental, and one of the most patient people I have ever met. I feel very safe with him in large part due to his strong sense of integrity. He trusts me to know what I am ready for, while simultaneously gently encouraging me to push my edges to the extent that feels accessible. He has created a supportive community of beautiful humans who want to see each other thrive. I am extremely grateful to Amir and highly recommend him!

From a life of authentically doing his own inner work, Amir truly understands how to guide someone through the long, gritty process of feeling through old wounds, to heal them. His perseverance shines through in teaching me to bring love to myself when I thought it was hopeless. Continuously offering healthier perspectives towards everything life has handed me. Amir is an exceptional human being with tremendous inner strength. He is the most patient, compassionate person I have had the privilege of working with.

When I started working with Amir, I was hopeful but also a bit skeptical of whether his support was what I needed. Several years of work with him later, I have repeatedly entrusted him with my life and the terrifyingly messy and uncomfortable terrain of my unconscious. I have only gratitude, and no regrets, for my work with him. His guidance and support have helped me through the most pivotal and healing transition of my life: a true homecoming to the human I've come to love being right now. He holds space with skill, impeccable integrity, talent – and his musicianship! that voice! honesty, and deep love. With him I've learned more than I could ever have hoped that day we met. Amir helped me find myself and the way home to living in trust and authenticity. If you're ready to volunteer for this extraordinary work, he can help you do the same.

I’ve worked with Amir for about 4 years, and in that time I’ve gone through a full transformation to not only understand myself better but to find new ways of being. My starting point was to learn to feel and express a broader set of emotions beyond fear and anger, and to connect with my body. Having gone through an inner transformation, rewriting the stories I tell myself, and unlearning lifelong patterns hasn’t been a straight forward journey, and has included some challenging periods in and out of meditations. Amir has provided such a safe, warm and firm container to do this work in – and in many ways helped me reparent myself. Anyone who has a basic understanding of their psyche and patterns, has enough internal and external resources to do deep work and is considering healing, I’d highly recommend Amir.

I don’t know that words can adequately capture Amir’s work and support but here are a few that come to mind (from a man who had initial fear about working with a male somatic healer): Safe, measured, co–created, intuitive, deeply healing, mulitafaceted expertise. Amir is plugged in and brings multiple modalities to support your healing. I trust him completely. So much of my healing has been somatic and would not have happened without the work he offers.

Amir is a gift. Working with him, and being guided by his wisdom and approach, has been the best thing I’ve ever done for myself. I’ve seen several other therapists throughout my life, but only through my work with Amir have I begun to understand what real healing could look like and to trust that I can do it. His warmth, his kindness, and his deep presence and wisdom create a grounded, safe space where I am comfortable bringing all of myself and going to where the healing is needed. I’m so incredibly grateful the universe put me in his path.

I've been with Amir for 5 years now. Given the nature of the work, my relationship with him is of course unlike any other I've experienced with any other therapist that I've seen in the past. He is one of sweetest human beings I have ever met, and his loving-kindness, presence, and generosity continue to inspire me to stay the course on my path of healing, no matter how many times I fall back on old patterns. Slowly but surely, they are being replaced by new ones that are aligned with my integrity. Amir has been instrumental in showing me the way of self-love, which seems to me to be the keystone in the move towards wholeness.

Working with Amir has been nothing short of a miracle for me. He is incredibly gifted at this work and brings such care, commitment, and compassion to our time together. Amir’s wisdom and experience has helped me absolutely transform my life. I feel so profoundly lucky to work with him, to be supported by him, and to be in his care. He is a gifted practitioner and a remarkable healer.

I’m a skeptic. And a cynic. And I used to hate men. And I’m a city girl with no time or patience for fluff or bs. I did a decade of psychoanalysis. A decade of cognitive behavioral therapy. A few years of group therapy. Then more cognitive behavioral therapy. They helped me. In three years with Amir, we have done and healed more than all of my prior work combined. Times ten. Don’t bother with this unless you’re ready and open to do the work. Which is raw and painful. I don’t hate men anymore. And that’s good because I’m raising a few of them. And I really love myself for the first time ever. I’ve stopped drinking and I am better in every way possible. Because of this work with Amir. Should you work with him? If you are reading this, you are blessed with an opportunity. Do with it what you will.

I came to Amir hoping to understand and cope with some discomfort I felt within me, or as Amir put it, to find the way from my head to my heart. After a magical day full of compassion insights and music, I realized that I had found my teacher. A few months have passed since that significant day, Amir and I keep meeting in order to strengthen the processes we have started. I definitely feel the changes in me.

I have found incalculable value from our time together. And only from 10 months of work. I finally feel I’ve reached the groove I’m meant to be slotted in. The path forward still requires diligence, vigilance, and good old fashioned hard work, but Amir provided tools I use to navigate the world’s choppy seas. We’ve revealed new perspectives together, and it’s been wonderful to explore how they integrate into my life. I now fine tune how I show up for the world. It’s not all confidence and joy on my side, but it’s a life I’m proud to say I love. And it’s all mine baby! Amir encourages me to remain autonomous. I never feel encroached in our sessions. And when we do have a rough patch, I appreciate that we talk openly about what’s between us. Amir gets 10 out of 10 stars. Would receive hugs or sit in silence with him again any day of the week.

I have been working with Amir for the past three years and because of it, I am moving toward a life I never imagined could be possible - one of freedom and an ongoing search for my own authenticity. My healing and ongoing therapeutic work together is founded on unconditional trust and mutual positive regard, something I have lacked for much of my life; the safety I feel in Amir's care is allowing whatever has been repressed or exiled throughout my life to become known and resolved. Amir is deeply caring, knowledgeable, and soulful. With his support, I am continually becoming the person, father, and spouse I have always wanted to be but never knew how. I look forward to this search with Amir as my guide and support for as long as I need him.
