Testimonials
Alia is my go-to recommendation for any friend or family member in need of support and healing. As someone in the field of counseling and healing myself, I am extremely selective with whom I entrust my own care, as well as for the people I love. Alia's compassion, expertise, wisdom and deft skills to help reset my nervous system and provide insightful suggestions to my most complex problems has been an absolute blessing, and has changed my life dramatically. And she wraps it all up in boundless humility. I sincerely recommend Alia with all of my heart.

Alia has become a trusted mentor and compassionate guide to me on a deeper journey into myself and in relation to the world. Through her gentle presence and guidance through somatic work, I have felt a profound release of old burdens/stories and a new understanding of my body's inherent wisdom. Many situations I would have previously found scary or overwhelming are manageable or even valuable teaching moments that I can work through, knowing that I have the tools (inner felt sense) to help me along the way. She has helped me find the fundamental sense of safety and okay-ness with who I am, whatever I am feeling day-to-day. It has benefitted all of my relationships and my work immensely. The gentle guidance that her practice has bestowed upon me is a learned sense of grounding that arises from deep within, often in the times I need it most. I'm so grateful for her and for the work she has done on her own healing journey to be able to share this therapeutic and spiritual wisdom with others.

I have been seeing Alia for the past year to deal with some old and deep seated trauma wounds (CPTSD). I have found her to be an exceptional guide for this work. In addition to her substantial training and education she possesses a great deal of kindness and compassion as well as life wisdom. Perhaps most importantly the authenticity and safety she provides for healing has allowed me to emerge from decades of "survival mode" into much healthier encounters with myself and the world. I am still a work in progress but I am so much better thanks to her gentle guidance.

I have battled immense feelings of guilt related to giving up a beloved pet. I happened to tell my friend about the reason for my insomnia and she recommended that I seek out the services of her therapist, Alia. I had talked to counselors in the past about this issue, and still, no relief. When I told Alia the reason I had come to her, the cause of my mental torture, she did not say to me, "But it is not your fault. You did the best you could." I was relieved that Alia's solution did not involve this tactic as many friends and therapist had tried to convince me of this in the past, and I always knew that it was not true, I could have done better. Instead she taught me skills in which I practiced, and in a short time, I was able to again think of my pet in a joyful manner. No more do I try to push thoughts of him from my mind. I welcome these thoughts, and I smile in his memory. I recommend Alia's services to find relief from grief, anger, fear. When you are ready, call her and let her teach you how to experience solace. For me, it has been life changing, as evident by my quiet and restful sleep and my embraced memories of my beautiful pet. I am so grateful for the gift of peace within myself.

I came to Alia for help with a lifelong phobia. Little did I know what a wonderful journey I was beginning. The journey we took led me to both beautiful and difficult childhood memories and feelings. Through it all, in her gentle presence, I felt safe, held in the arms of grace. I emerged from the process with a smile on my face that went right down into my heart.

I’ve been working with Alia for almost 3 years and have felt very much cared for and supported by her as a homeopath, emotional and spiritual facilitator and lately Somatic Experiencing practitioner. With heart and competence she holds space for every step. I appreciate Alia’s natural combination of personal interest, professional competence, her engagement and her soulful vastness, depth and stillness. The soulful, heart space she creates has given me a deep trust that I can show all of myself, a healing and enlightening process where I can find myself in deeper and deeper places.

The greatest thing about Alia is that she truly is capable of fully listening to understand you at your deepest level when it comes to your body and your soul.

I enjoyed so much how easy and free the time was to slowly ‘step down’ into whatever was arising. To start with the feeling of wholeness and completeness which is something I will have anchored now for myself for felt memory. The gentle process of discovery and allowing it to arise – to Alia’s curiosity of a movement that I surely wouldn’t have ever noticed. The peacefulness, safety, and stillness of what Alia is providing is very valuable and sacred.

I’ve approached Alia for several physical issues and emotional imbalances. As soon as I’m in Alia’s presence I can relax and feel safe. The combination of her genuine interest in my problems and her stillness are the foundation for my healing. Her compassionate emotional support in finding my way out of a confused state is very valuable and I’m very grateful that she is such a heartful and knowledgeable person.

The Renewing Goodness session I had with Alia gave me peace on an issue that was troubling me. Alia listened and guided me to notice what my body and nervous system was telling me.

I asked Alia for homeopathic treatment to address a short-term acute condition and and a long-term physical issue I had. We were successful in resolving both. I felt like I was in really good hands with her treatment because she was very engaged and knowledgeable. She clearly cares a lot, especially about finding the right homeopathic remedies. I really appreciated having her help and not needing to find allopathic treatments. I highly recommend her work.

This summer I got very strong allergic reactions, My optometrist doctor’s diagnose: Allergic Conjunctivitis . I took the homeopathic medication Alia recommended. My eyes reacted immediately! Now, after weeks of stress, my eyes are regenerating and another specific homeopathic medication supports my physical balance. I highly recommend Alia. She is a wonderful healer-women with heart, a lot of experience, clarity and knowledge.
