Dr Samar Habibullah

I feel incredibly honoured to have Samar not only as a friend but also to have experienced her work as her client. I still find it hard to believe how much can shift in just one hour. Our EMDR session, which Samar recommended to help me process a traumatic childbirth experience, allowed me to work through emotions and struggles that I hadn’t fully understood or had the opportunity to process before. Samar has the most nurturing, empathetic and compassionate presence. She creates a space where you feel completely safe to open up, without fear or judgement, even when it comes to the deepest and most painful parts of your journey. What I appreciated most was her gentle yet incredibly insightful approach. Through her thoughtful, well-guided questions, she helped me explore my experiences from different perspectives and see things with a clarity I hadn’t been able to find on my own. I came to understand things differently, release some of the weight I had been carrying and, most importantly, find more compassion for myself. I was amazed by how naturally I was able to open up and how profound the shift felt after just one session. There is something truly special about feeling so seen, heard and understood. I will be forever grateful to you, Samar. You are an incredible friend, an exceptional doctor and, truly, a healer of souls. Thank you for the work you do and for the difference you make ❤️

Subject: Thank you for today's session Dear Dr. Samar Habibullah, I wanted to take a moment to thank you sincerely for the session we just had. It provided me with so much clarity, and I am truly grateful for the amazing level of honesty and support you offered. For the first time, I was able to fully feel that there is somebody there to genuinely listen, and that has meant a great deal to me. Thank you - thank you for listening. I will follow up shortly with the information I promised. Having never sought help, as I though I was weak, this is the strongest I have felt since I left the greatest love I never had ny wife Exactly 70 days 10 weeks ago. With sincere gratitude,

The session was genuinely helpful and made me feel much better emotionally. I felt comfortable and understood, and I left feeling more positive. I’m looking forward to my next sessions and continuing this journey.

I have been seeing Dr Samar for almost 2 years now - she is amazing, very thorough, she truly listens and makes me feel validated and confident. I cannot recommend her highly enough 💕 Bonus is that we have a lot of our sessions via zoom 🌸

I had a very positive experience with Dr. Samar. She was professional, attentive, and genuinely took the time to listen and understand my concerns. I felt very comfortable throughout the consultation and appreciated how clearly she explained everything to me. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and knowledgeable doctor.

Meeting Dr. Samar is like taking a breath of fresh air in a long time. The session was an introduction but I felt very comfortable. Its the first time I feel listened too and heard and have answers to some of my questions. She has a very calm and comforting yet professional demeanor, making it a safe space but also you know that your in capable hands. I wasn’t diagnosed on the spot and just given a prescription which is a big relief. Its a big step I'm taking and I do feel with Dr. Samar I'm in the right hands.

From the moment i stepped into the clinic she has taught me how to overcome some fears or worries and helped me work on myself.

Dr. Samar Habibullah is an exceptional psychiatrist who has made a significant positive impact on my life. From the very beginning, she has taken the time to genuinely listen to me, understand what I have been going through, and ask me thoughtful, insightful questions that have helped me better understand myself and my mental health. What stands out most is the level of care, patience, empathy, and attention she brings to every appointment. I always feel heard, understood, and taken seriously, and her guidance has helped me make remarkable progress in a short amount of time. I am grateful for the support she has given me and cannot recommend her highly enough. She truly represents the highest standard of care in her field, and to her patients.

I have completed several EMDR sessions with Dr. Samar. She is lovely, professional, endlessly accommodating. I felt comfortable straight away and never felt judged, which made it so much easier to open up about things I’d normally keep to myself. The biggest relief for me with EMDR was finding out I didn't have to sit there and retell every detail. I could just bring a difficult memory up, work through the process, and my relationship with it started to change on its own. Here's the best way I can put it. Before, certain memories felt like they were stuck in the "active" pile in my head. I knew they were in the past. My body didn't seem to have got the message. Remembering them could still drop me straight back into how I felt at the time. After working through one memory in particular, it felt like it had finally been filed away. Nothing about what happened changed. I still remember it clearly. But the charge attached to it is different now. I can think about it, talk about it, without falling into it. That distinction has meant A LOT. It feels like something that happened to me in the past, not something that is still happening. Then it started happening with other memories too. Once a few had shifted, I could see the threads running between them, the same thing showing up in different forms. So we worked on that directly rather than one memory at a time. What surprised me most was how fast I noticed the shift. I had spent years in regular talk therapy circling certain things, but with Dr Samar something changed within a handful of sessions. This has been nothing ...

My recent sessions with Dr. Samar have been incredibly helpful for my overall wellbeing and day-to-day life. I feel better supported and more equipped to manage things, and I’m very grateful for her guidance and care.
