On this planet, we have created a habit of placing a price tag on nearly everything, as a common and natural exchange for time, effort or expertise. But it's important to remember that access to guidance and support should not be a luxury, especially for people who are going through difficult times.
As a way to ground myself in keeping my humanity in tact in all aspects of my life and regardless of where life takes me, I do provide consultation without charging to any individuals navigating hardship.
If you find yourself in need, please know that this spaces exists without cost, pressure, expectation or judgement.

After reviewing your request, I will send you a response via email with the consultation or guidance that I can offer.
How long will this take?
It's difficult to give a precise timeline, as every indiviual will have their unique sitation. I can assure you that this isn't something I am offering in my "free time". This work matters deeply to me and because of its importance I have committed to spending time on a weekly basis with an intention of providing useful consultations.
What do I (Essa) expect from you in return?
I only ask for patience & understanding when it comes to my response time. People who have gotten to know me understand that I am not easily reachable,and that quick and instant communication is not one of my strengths.
