“He was able to create results in hours whereas I would struggle for years.”

As far back as I can remember I’ve dealt with paralyzing anxiety. It would present itself in different ways as I grew up, but it was always there and I was convinced fear would always define me. I stood by and watched as my authentic self became chipped away by low self-worth, stress, doubt, and depression. The hard truth was medication didn’t mean everything was magically fixed.  I didn’t realize that over the years it was the habits I created in response to my anxiety that were informing everything I did. Undoing that proved to be a long and difficult process on my own. 

Eventually I was lucky enough to begin working with Amiri and that’s when things started to fall in place. He helped me realize what was still holding me back so I could finally identify the patterns and put the pieces of the puzzle together to move forward. He was able to create results in hours whereas I would struggle for years.  With Amiri, I made far more progress in just six months than I had on my own in the four years prior.

Talking with him opened possibilities for my own personal development that I had never considered attainable for myself before. Overall, our conversations and the work I put in have led me to a much greater sense of self confidence, inner peace, and fulfillment in my own life. I’m graduating college now with a greater sense of certainty than I’ve ever had before and I couldn’t be more grateful.
