Lovely therapist. Made me feel very comfortable from day 1. Really good listener and equips you with tools to really explore your feelings and work through any issues you might have. I also appreciate that Mariam is a person of faith and this has been a much welcomed part of our therapy sessions.

I feel like I got very lucky with a therapist like Mariam. I have had different therapists in the last 10+ years and the way Mariam is (still professionally) engaged with me is new to me. She’s a good listener, holds space, replies in a very timely manner (actually usually almost immediately!), expresses care and makes me feel safe. I am very grateful to have been paired with her.

Mariam is amazing. She makes therapy smooth as I was able to share my thoughts with her and she was a great listener. She also understands me completely and guides me on the right path. Can’t wait for more sessions with her

I could not be happier with Mariam.
She is the sweetest therapist. She gives great advice, she's funny, flexible and punctual, and of course very professional.
She's always very responsive and makes sure you leave every session feeling less heavy.
Definitely recommend her and Better Help, as they have great customer service too.

I have found my sessions with Mariam very helpful. Mariam is insightful and draws from a lot of experience. She is very positive and encouraging. She is very quick to respond and available to meet, making me feel well cared for. She has been very precious in helping me tease out meanings and setting in place frameworks/strategies to help me handle the problems I have been facing.
