"I met Bahareh for the first time when I left California State Prison – Sacramento (New Folsom). She was the first person I met outside the walls of prison after serving seven years, and she came into my life at a time when I needed support the most. My experience with Bahareh has been nothing but positive—1000% positive. She is incredibly kind, sees life through a positive lens, and, most importantly, she saw strengths in me that I didn’t recognize in myself.
There is no greater gift than realizing that I am more than what I once believed. During moments of depression and hopelessness, Bahareh always took the time to talk to me or respond to my messages, no matter how busy she was. Because of her, I finally understood my potential and decided that I wanted to do for others what she did for me—help them see their own strength."

"I've been through a lot through my life and don't really know if I've dealt with my experiences. What allowed me to choose Bahareh as my therapist Is her personality and character. I would like to think that I'm a quick judge of character. Her vibe that she gives off is really comforting, welcoming, loving and makes you feel safe and at home. I am truly grateful to be apart of her circle and the work she does is inspirational to people like me going through the reentry process."

"She is one of the few people who can make anyone feel special. She is very warm and empathetic. She has a trauma-informed, dynamic approach."
