When you live knowing Allah’s promises, true strength takes root

I’m Razia Hamidi, Muslim Life Coach and Counsellor

I believe true change in our society and ummah comes when individuals, couples, and families are healthier and stronger. 

 

That said, being a Muslim isn’t a matter of instantaneous perfection. Instead, it’s a question of your relationship with Allah and how that relationship grows. It’s a dedication to consistent progress over time in your relationship towards Allah, your worship, and your dependency upon Him.  

 

Whether you want to work through personal pain, strengthen your marriage, or thrive in your career, it’s possible when you believe the truth informed by Allah. Using a combination of Islamic spirituality and counselling techniques, I’ll help you get there.

Razia

Truth

Accept reality and understand the truth in Allah’s words.

Love

Embrace love and compassion for yourself and others.

Action

Develop a plan to move past struggles and lead an amazing life.

Submission

Submission has humility at its core in the same way that love is based on self-sacrifice.⁣

Over a decade helping Muslims thrive in life and relationships

My background, certifications, and experience

For over a decade, I’ve worked closely with the Muslim community—both locally and nationally. Along the way, I’ve helped hundreds of clients build spiritual disciplines that strengthen their faith, relationships, and careers. I’ve also consulted with non-profit organizations to assist in organizational and program development, leadership training, long-term strategy, and sustainable growth.

My education combined with my Islamic knowledge allows me to approach marriage counseling and life coaching in a holistic way.  I’m able to take the latest research and look at it with the Islamic filter. 

What this means for you is you’re not just getting a counselor who will help validate your pain or conflicts. You’re getting someone who helps you move past struggles with an action plan rooted in spirituality. 

By connecting with the words of Allah from a whole new perspective, you can change limiting beliefs and develop deeper connections with yourself and others like never before. 

I move far beyond “what you are doing.” I delve into “why you are doing it,” “where it comes from”, and (my personal favourite), the depth of who you are. 

My goal is to help you connect with your spirituality like never before so you can use that faith to live a happy, confident, love-filled life. 

I can’t wait to help you get there.

A hadith that has shaped my outlook in life and I try live by is..

The Messenger of Allah SAWS) said: “How wonderful is the affair of the believer, for his affairs are all good, and this applies to no one but the believer. If something good happens to him, he is thankful for it and that is good for him. If something bad happens to him, he bears it with patience and that is good for him.”
