This event had such a positive, uplifting, and judgement free vibe. Truly a safe space to share and listen to other’s mental health journeys. Very inspiring.

I went to the San Diego open mic night event! I was greeted with the warmest energy by Madina and surrounded next to high quality individuals! The vibe for authenticity was high. The event was such a welcoming space. Going to a new event in public can be overwhelming but the hospitality was off the charts from friendliness, to snacks, to reserving a beautiful inviting space. I’m so thankful for my experience!

★★★★★★★★★★Aaron BryantMar 2026

She is unlike any therapist I’ve experienced. When we spoke about living with anxiety rather than trying to get rid of it, I knew I was truly on the path to heal my mentality. Attended her unfiltered minds tour in San Diego and spoke about overcoming mental blocks in hs based on my image. She’s been providing safe spaces nationwide for others to share and overcome.

When I first started working with Madina, I was dealing with debilitating OCD (though I didn’t know it was OCD at the time). Within the first month of working with her, I was already doing so much better. A year and a half later, my life looks completely different. I’m doing the things I love, engaging in life, and most importantly, OCD doesn’t control my life anymore. Madina isn’t your typical therapist, and this isn’t talk therapy where you just sit and vent. It was exposures, active exercises, and really uncomfortable, hard work. At first, I thought she was being too tough on me, but that toughness is exactly what helped me get better. The way she treated my OCD, by not giving in, not reassuring me, and not engaging, taught me to treat it the same way. That’s what broke the cycle for me.

★★★★★★★★★★Sarah BryanFeb 2026

Madina is not your traditional therapist. She uses modern practices and re-shapes the way you think. My relationship with my anxiety has changed, and how I respond to sensations, thoughts and feelings. I never believed in therapy until I had a session with her. Highly recommend.

★★★★★★★★★★Julie JacksonFeb 2026

I really enjoyed myself. I met a lot of new people that made me feel like I am normal because the sharing of their experiences mirrored my own!! I felt better knowing that I am not alone in my struggles. It truly helped me feel better about Al of the feelings I feel on a daily basis. I highly recommend attending her seminar because you get to connect with locals that can definitely become a part of your village!!

I’ve been working with Madina since July after seeing her post on TikTok about agoraphobia something I had been struggling with for about 10 months at the time. I began with a 5-week group therapy session and then transitioned into private sessions. With her skills and knowledge, combined with my willingness to grow and gradually expose myself to situations I’d been avoiding, the experience has been incredibly positive. I truly feel like I’m getting my life back slowly and at my own pace. Madina has an amazing personality, and I can count on laughing at least once in every session. I’m really grateful for the support and guidance she’s provided.

★★★★★★★★★★Kyra HubertFeb 2026

I have been to so many of Madina’s events and I feel so refreshed afterwards. Highly recommend! Great energy!
