Mahastee Mehdizadeh

I was born in America into a very traditional Iranian family. I grew up having to please others, and worked hard at being the sweet perfect daughter. I even decided to be a dentist, although I disliked it because my family wanted me to be a doctor. Once a situation had occurred that I was quickly disowned by my father, I decided to not go to dental school and pursue what I really wanted to do was to be a psychotherapist. I thought how could it be for me to spend all of this time pleasing others, while they would give me up so quickly? From my experiences, and knowledge I have learned to set healthy boundaries. I believe a lot of people's difficulties and disorders is due to the inability to say NO. I help people discover their true essence, get in touch with their purpose, access and interact with their subconscious, and spirit, trust and gain a strong sense of self, express, and communicate their thoughts, and feelings clearly, assertively, and calmly, and finally be able to ask for and attract what they want in life. I am still in the process, but have gained a lot and guide others on this path with tools they can use themselves to succeed.
