\"\"We began our counselling with Afshan at a very vulnerable time in our marriage. We had faced issues we never imagined we would be tested with. And we called Afshan in desperation as I was ready to walk away from the marriage and from my husband. Afshan listened to us both, she truly heard us and was able to identify why some of the arguments and issues arose. With her guidance we were able to use our sessions to progress towards bettering ourselves in order to better our marriage.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Afshan taught us a lot of communication methods that have been integral in our day to day interactions with each other. She also delved deep into some of the issues we had in order to identify some coping mechanisms and techniques to strengthen ourselves as individuals in order to then be close to each other as husband and wife. We saw Afshan for nearly a year before we both could confidently say that we had come to terms with the matters that we sought guidance for.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We are thankful to Afshan for her integrity and professionalism and we recommend her to every Muslim couple who want to or need to improve their marriage.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jazakallahu khairan for your incredible skills. Your guidance saved our marriage. With all thanks to Allah for bringing us to you.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"\"The counselling helped me a great deal. At a time when I felt very confused and helpless with my emotions. In the sessions we explored issues I didn\u2019t realise affected me. By the end I had a greater understanding of why I felt the way I did. I feel much happier now and feel like I can move on with my life. JazakAllahKhairun for your help.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"\"I would thoroughly recommend booking some sessions with Afshan. If you are suffering with panic attacks and social anxiety, phobias and low self-esteem, sadly all of which I was. Alhamdulillah I am safely on the road to recovery. There would no way I would be saying this is I hadn't had counselling. Afshan is very professional and knowledgeable masha'Allah. I really recommend her.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t

\"\"I contacted Afshan Khan at a time in my life when I was feeling I had come to ends of my uphill struggle with anxiety. After years of trying to manage myself, it only felt like it was getting worse and worse. I decided to contact Sukoon Healing so I can fully trust in both the faith and mental health aspect of my healing, and Alhamdulillah I received just that.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t

\"\"As an independent advisor. I have been providing Afshan with my own feedback as well as feedback from her clients. I can only say that her work has had very positive results for all people. Whether it is due to the workshop, the support group or the one-to-one counselling.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t

\"\"I was overridden by my general and social anxiety. With Afshan I went through understanding where this came from. Which became a tremendous healing process in itself. She then gave me the tools to cope with daily struggles and negative thoughts. This helped me in all aspects of my life, family, work and with friends.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t

\"\"Counselling paved a way for me to deal with everything in my life. With more equanimity and more inner peace. My only complaint is that course of counselling is too limited. Perhaps a few more sessions would have been great and would have proved milestone in my recovery. I thank her and pray for her from bottom of my heart.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t

\"\"Through Allah she also aided me in understanding the current barriers to me. Wanting to achieve my goals in life both mentally and my daily routine.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t

\"\"I would really recommend her services. Encourage those who not only suffer from severe mental health conditions but those who feel they want to improve themselves. Yet their mental and emotional baggage is a barrier.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t

\"\"I now come away with all the tools to feel independent. I have already realised some of my goals that I had after 6 months. Afshan has been a major part of my journey in meeting these goals. Her experience and knowledge shone through. Gave me comfort in benefiting from her.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"\"My journey with sukoon healing has led me to have the confidence. And to develop on the range of skills needed to improve my marriage. And help my relationship to refresh with my spouse with the will of Allah. The process was catered to personal situation and to what I could manage. Within the process of marriage counselling. I was able to heal mentally and spiritually. Which gave me a more fulfilling life. Am very grateful to sister Afshan Khan.<\/strong><\/p>\n
