Couples Consultations
While many couples benefit from going through therapy, some couples may want to start with consultations. Couples consultations are a confidential and compassionate space to ask questions, seek clarity on WHY your marital struggles are arising, and receive practical guidance about the issues you’re facing. Now available for immediate booking.

Consultations are best for couples who are seeking short-term expert advice, strategies, and insights.

Not only will you feel empowered with more information and insights, you'‘ll also have suggestions on possible next steps to take. Sameera will send a follow-up email after the consultation with a brief summary of strategies and resources.
Frequently Asked Questions
What topics can I consult with you about?
Anything related to your marriage! Common issues facing Muslim married couples are those with sexual intimacy (i.e. pain, sexual desire differences, past trauma, lack of pleasure, intimacy after having a child, etc); pornography use; difficulty with communication; lack of an emotional connection; and any other struggle you’re facing in marriage. The couples intake form will ensure that Sameera is the right fit for you.
Do you accept insurance?
No, I do not accept insurance. I can provide you with invoices/receipts if you would like to submit these for reimbursement. For those who live in the United States, based on your insurance provider, you may be able to use your HSA card to pay for sessions.
How can I follow up with you after the consultation? What if I have questions?
At the end of our session, I’ll suggest ways in which we can follow up. Perhaps a follow-up consultation would be helpful, to ask your questions and address any other concerns you have. Or I may suggest that you send me a brief email update in a couple of weeks, sharing how things are going and if you need to meet again. Unfortunately, professional guidance cannot be provided over email for ethical and confidentiality reasons. Please also note that consultations are NOT therapy sessions.
