I have been working with Karima for almost 3 years now.

The periods of weekly sessions are followed by periods of a lower frequency of meetings. I came to her at a time when I was going through a difficult life experience. Despite the fact that I had been intensively practicing yoga, meditation and yoga philosophy for many years before, I was not able to help myself properly and I did not want to constantly “pester” the circle of my closest loved ones. I have found a truly compassionate and efficient support in Karima. Not only have I gained a better ability to face different challenges and handle difficult situations through these sessions, but to my great surprise I have noticed that I’ve managed to deepen the contact with my own body and experiencing.

This has had a great effect on various aspects of my life. I can see concretely many positive changes happening in my life since I found a better contact with myself and I also have more trust and determination. Karima has supported me empathically, I could even say lovingly on my journey back to my childhood, to my relationship with my parents and also to similar experiences later in life. That journey made numerous negative charges disintegrate and I have made peace with certain issues or found a way to act appropriately.

It is highly valuable that Karima did not use the techniques as a technician, but she behaved primarily as any person would to another person and in this way she established a relationship in which I never felt “half-human” in my role of “patient”. Also, her personal experiences and life trials which she shared with me at the beginning of the sessions have given me hope. In light of my own field of work I find it especially valuable that she truly includes the body in her sessions but at the same time she does not underestimate the mind, and above all she has a special sense for what I could call the spiritual, supernatural dimension of life.

Even a pinch of craniosacral resonance in the last part of the session contributes to an additional value and helps the work from the session to “settle down”. As a matter of fact, I see Valentina as my companion, my co-adventurer on my path through the journey of life.
