Session
Sahar Zadah’s Integrative Therapy and Mentorship sessions offer a deeply supportive and holistic path to healing and personal growth. These sessions combine evidence-based therapeutic techniques, meditation, somatic practices, trauma-informed care, and nature-based approaches to meet your unique mental, emotional, and spiritual needs. With extensive experience and training, Sahar blends scientific understanding with compassionate guidance to help you cultivate clarity, resilience, and empowerment.
The Approach
Psychotherapy, derived from the Greek words psych (soul) and therapeia (to serve or attend to), is at the heart of Sahar’s integrative framework. By blending evidence-based practices with compassionate guidance, Sahar helps clients reconnect with their inner selves and the natural world.
Sahar approaches her clients with a focus on the whole person—mind, body, emotions, and spirit—rather than focusing solely on specific symptoms. This allows space for exploring the root causes of challenges while fostering meaningful healing and growth. Her comprehensive approach integrates past and present experiences, creating a safe and nurturing space to address a range of concerns, such as anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, grief, relational challenges, and existential questions.
Key Elements of Sahar’s Approach
• Psychotherapy: Helping you explore and address emotional patterns and underlying challenges.
• Somatic Practices: Reconnecting with the body to release stored tension and enhance emotional regulation.
• Trauma-Informed Care: Providing safety and support to gently process past experiences.
• Meditation & Mindfulness: Offering tools for grounding, clarity, and emotional balance.
• Eco-Psychotherapy: Using the healing power of nature to promote connection, calm, and balance.
By integrating these methods, Sahar helps you uncover meaningful insights, resolve inner conflicts, and move towards a greater sense of peace and self-awareness.
