N.H

Individual, In-person Sessions

“The session with Lina helped me better understand the situation around me and my children, and the emotions that come up in everyday life. The tools she shared to practice at home made a real difference, helping me stay calm and regulate my emotions before responding to my kids. Her sessions felt very reachable and enjoyable, and I’m truly thankful for the opportunity. I also became more aware of my emotional patterns and how they can influence how I connect with my children. I left the sessions feeling more confident and better equipped to handle difficult moments at home.”

Individual, In-person Sessions

“Working with Lina has been an important part of my personal growth, and I’m deeply grateful for her support and guidance.

​Lina works in a trauma-informed way and never pressures me to talk about things or do activities before I’m ready. She consistently reassures me that I can move at my own pace and only share what feels safe and comfortable. That sense of safety has allowed me to open up gradually and feel more grounded in myself.

Because she has walked a similar path herself, Lina shows genuine empathy and understanding. I never feel judged or rushed, only supported by someone who truly understands what I’m experiencing. Lina’s guidance is also very structured and practical. She offers clear steps and exercises that feel achievable and suited to my personal situation. This has helped me build confidence and recognise progress over time. She also helps me understand my experiences better like why I feel certain ways, how past and present situations influence me, and how to manage emotional triggers. Having this understanding has empowered me to take a more active role in my own growth. I believe Lina will continue helping many people, especially those adjusting to motherhood in a foreign country while carrying difficult life experiences. Her support makes that journey feel less lonely and more hopeful."

Couple, Online Sessions

“We came to counselling because we loved each other, but we were struggling to understand each other when emotions became intense. Small things could quickly turn into bigger arguments, and sometimes it would take days before we really connected again.

​What helped us was learning to understand what was happening beneath those moments instead of focusing only on who said or did something wrong. We became better at recognizing our triggers, slowing things down, and explaining what we actually needed from each other.

We also appreciated that our different cultural backgrounds were understood without everything being blamed on culture. We were both given space to express ourselves and never felt that one person was being treated as the problem. We still have disagreements, but we handle them differently now. We communicate better, repair things sooner and understand each other in a way we didn't before.”
