Deciding to give therapy a shot was a game-changer for me

 "I was on the brink of walking away from my high-pressure job, feeling overwhelmed by burnout and stress. Deciding to give therapy a shot was a game-changer for me. You truly got where I was coming from and crafted strategies that felt like they were made just for me. You not only helped me find my way back to confidence but also armed me with coping skills for the road ahead. Stepping back into work, I felt like a new person—energized and ready to tackle challenges without fear of burning out again. I can't express enough how thankful I am for this incredible turnaround."

The realization of how crucial feeling safe was for me only dawned upon me during our conversation

 "After exploring a wide array of therapeutic approaches over the years, from traditional talk therapies to innovative methods like EMDR and meditation, I've encountered many professionals. Yet, it was our therapy sessions that truly stood out for me. It provided a level of safety and support I hadn't realized was missing from my experiences. Unlike any other therapy or life coaching session I've had before, our meeting left a profound impact on me. The realization of how crucial feeling safe was for me only dawned upon me during our conversation."

Rediscovering our foundational friendship has been a miraculous turnaround

  "Seventeen years into our marriage, my partner and I were on the precipice of separation. You introduced us to new levels of intimacy and communication we hadn't experienced before. Rediscovering our foundational friendship has been a miraculous turnaround. We owe our renewed joy and deeper connection to these sessions."   

 Therapy opened our eyes to a new way of understanding and loving each other

"Our relationship felt doomed to endless cycles of conflict, but therapy opened our eyes to a new way of understanding and loving each other. It's like you say, 'takes two to enter into a negative cycle, takes one to break out of it!'


This year has been our best yet, thank you!"

I'm doing better at work and with my friends now

"I was super nervous about therapy at first, but you made it feel like talking to someone who's known me forever. You really cared about the stuff I went through and helped me understand why I feel the way I do. It's like you have a bunch of different ways to help, and you always know which one to use with me. I'm doing better at work  and with my friends now. Thanks a bunch. You're the real deal."


   

Now, I've hit my therapy goals and I'm living my truth

"Yo you're like the queer-friendly auntie I never had but always wanted. When I first bounced into our session, I was a hot mess express. But you didn't just ride along; you actually helped me lay down new tracks. We've laughed at my dating disasters and had real talk about the tough stuff. Now, I've hit my therapy goals (*emphasis FOR NOW*) and I'm living my truth, all thanks to you doc. Shoutout to your authenticity as well – rainbow flag and all!"   

This mentorship has been a cornerstone of my professional development

 "My experience in clinical supervision with you has profoundly impacted my approach to therapy. The wisdom and support offered have not only enhanced my clinical skills but also my confidence in providing care. Your mentorship has been a cornerstone of my professional development." 

With every session, I felt more empowered and closer to rediscovering my true self

   

"Facing a myriad of personal challenges, therapy became my sanctuary. Your guidance helped me untangle complex emotions and rebuild my self-esteem after a long-term toxic relationship. With every session, I felt more empowered and closer to rediscovering my true self."   

Now, I'm walking lighter, doing my bit for social justice without the guilt-trip 

"Alright, so diving into therapy, I was lugging around this backpack full of white straight male guilt, tripping over it every step I took. But you didn't just help me unpack it; you turned it into a teachable moment with more laughs and cries than trash tv. You showed me it's not about wearing a hair shirt but about getting up and doing something positive. Now, as a straight white dude, I'm walkin even lighter, my face shinin even brighter, doing my bit for social justice without the guilt-trip. High-five to you for keeping it real and a little bit hilarious 'as a woman of color' LOL."


If youre posting that, make sure you make it clear that I was joking and quoting you!!!


I'm finally starting to feel like I can let go of some of the bad stuff and move forward

 "I've always felt like an outsider, and it's been super tough dealing with all the stuff from my past. But then I started seeing you and things began to change. Like you get it, you know? You really listen and make sense of the things that have happened to me, and you do it in a way that's respectful of my culture and who I am. It's like you know exactly how to help me feel safe and understood. I'm finally starting to feel like I can let go of some of the bad stuff and move forward."


   

I've never felt so understood

"You're like that one friend who actually gets your pronouns right the first time –but if they don't they don't make a big deal out of it either! A total breath of fresh air! As an LGBTQ+ advocate, I've had my share of therapists who just don't get it. But you? You're the real MVP. We've cracked up about some of the absurd stereotypes out there, and I've never felt so understood. With your help, I've tackled my elephants and retained my unicorns and am now living my best, most authentic life. 10/10 would recommend to my rainbow fam!"


   

Deeper understanding and the mutual impact the therapist and client have on one another in the therapy room

"I very much appreciate your supervision. Your ability to draw from a vast array of therapeutic approaches is not only impressive but has been instrumental in my own personal healing journey. The integrative methods employed in our supervisions have facilitated a deeper understanding and the mutual impact the therapist and client have on one another in the therapy room. This is so important as I navigate _____ for post-doc and beyond. You have been a guiding force in my pursuit of self-awareness and emotional resilience."   

Have helped me to navigate my anxiety and past trauma with newfound strength

  "Is there anywhere I can leave you a review? Therapy with you has been a transformative experience. Your multicultural lens and trauma-informed care have been crucial in addressing the unique challenges I've faced as a first-generation college student. Your approach is personalized and empathetic, creating a space where I feel seen and supported. Your variety in techniques used have helped me to navigate my anxiety and past trauma with newfound strength as I return to my home state. I can't recommend you enough to anyone seeking an understanding and skilled therapist. You will be missed, Dr. T!"

I'm on a roll now

"Remember when I virtually rolled into our session kinda skeptical, right? But then, BAM! You hit me with this understanding vibe that just knocked my wheels off – metaphorically speaking, of course. As someone who's wheeling through life after my accident, it's awesome to have a therapist who doesn't make a big deal out of my disability but still gets the challenges. We've had some real laugh-out-loud moments when you said you would never try  to 'walk' a mile in my shoes. Spoiler alert: you can't, but A for humor! Seriously though, you've helped me zoom past my goals and I'm on a roll now!"
   

A sense of holistic well-being that transcends the therapy room

"Your nuanced, trauma-informed approach, coupled with a deep appreciation for cultural identity, has been pivotal in my understanding of self and others. Your therapeutic style is both intellectually stimulating and emotionally nurturing, promoting a sense of holistic well-being that transcends the therapy room. As a therapist myself, I constantly feel like I have a lot to learn from you! No doubt your influence has been a significant factor in my professional success and personal growth."
   

I've come out feeling stronger

"When I first marched into therapy with you, I was expecting a drill sergeant. Instead, I got someone who's more like the buddy you want in your foxhole. You've got a good sense of humor, too – said you'd trade your pen for my boots any day in a game of COD [Call of Duty] lol. Good luck with that! But seriously, you've helped me face some tough battles with my past service, and I've come out feeling stronger. Salute to you, Dr. Tameer, not so bad now getting back into civilian life!"
   

I've reached a level of clarity and closure that has allowed me to move forward with confidence 

"You've been a beacon of support when you were just an intern when I was navigating some of the toughest times in my life... With your help, I've reached a level of clarity and closure that had allowed me to move forward with confidence. Your blend of expertise and genuine care is a rare find in the therapy world. Sad to have parted ways with you going back to ____ [your home state] after finishing up your internship, but grateful for the opportunity to have crossed paths to begin with.

In just a few months, I've hit milestones I didn't think were possible and feel confident in saying I've met my treatment goals

"I first met with you during your externship years ago, and even back then, your help stood out to me so when life threw some curveballs my way recently, I knew exactly who I wanted to turn to. Reconnecting with you online was like picking up where we left off, but with even more depth to your approach. In just a few months, I've hit milestones I didn't think were possible and feel confident in saying I've met my treatment goals. It's been an empowering journey, and I owe so much of my progress to you Dr. T. Now and then."

Making me feel at home in a world in which I continue to navigate belonging

"Bracing myself for another Bollywood' talk, but it was legit different in the best of ways! You knew your samosas from your dosas, and that alone was a hoot. But jokes aside, you really understood the tightrope walk of being South Asian in a Western world. We've shared some good laughs over my family's 'arranged marriage' plans, and you've helped me navigate my cultural identity like a pro. Big shoutout to you for making me feel at home in a world I continue to navigate belongingness in while helping me write my own story."

I've squared away some of my big goals and even found some peace

You may look the part but for real your nothin like the by-the-book shrink. What I got instead was this cool cat who's all about breaking the mold. You actually made me crack a smile talking about boot camp like it's summer camp for grown-ups. You get the vet life without making me feel like a project. Since working with you, I've squared away some of my big goals and even found some peace. Hats off to you Doctor.
   

Memories that once haunted me now feel distant and manageable

"EMDR therapy with you has been a profound journey. Your expertise in trauma work guided me through the process with care and compassion--much of which felt so unnatural esp going through the deep and the dark. The transformation I've experienced is indescribable—memories that once haunted me now feel distant and manageable. Your approach to EMDR has given me back control of my life."   

Pivotal in my personal growth

"You've honored my spiritual beliefs in a way that deeply enriched our therapy sessions. Your respect for my faith and incorporation of spiritual healing practices has been pivotal in my personal growth. You've helped me to find a balance between my psychological well-being and my spiritual path, for which I am truly grateful."

A new sense of self-compassion and love

"Working with you on inner child parts work has been transformative. I continue to move memories. You helped me to create a compassionate space for me to connect with and heal my inner child, leading to a profound sense of wholeness. Your guidance has been invaluable in helping me to integrate these parts and find a new sense of self-compassion and love." 

I'm actually seeing the difference

"NMT Brain Mapping with you felt like getting the ultimate user manual for my brain. It's like you and I flipped on the lights after going through that assessment and suddenly everything made sense. You broke it down for me with and without all the jargon, showing me how my noggin works and why I react the way I do. Your mix of smarts and heart made all the difference, giving me a clear-cut plan for getting better. Thanks to this cool brain-mapping stuff, my therapy's been spot on, and I'm actually seeing the difference it has made."
