I am Saira Masood Crawford—psychotherapist, art therapist, and a woman transformed by love, loss, and the sacred unraveling of identity.

For over a decade, I have walked alongside individuals as they navigate their inner worlds, offering presence, compassion, and insight. My work has spanned government agencies, hospitals, treatment centers, and private practice. Throughout, I have been deeply connected to my clients and to the profound process of healing. Even before I was a therapist, I was a seeker—committed to self-inquiry, shaped by my own therapeutic journey.

In November 2023, my life was irrevocably changed when my eldest daughter, Luna Isabella Crawford—the light of my life—was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer. In the months that followed, everything else fell away. I entered a sacred stillness, devoted entirely to loving her through every breath, every moment, until her final transition on September 1, 2024.

With her passing, I too crossed a threshold. The woman I had been ceased to exist. My roles—mother, daughter, clinician, friend—dissolved. What remained was something new, raw, and unfamiliar. In that space, I was called to something deeper than theory or talk—I was called to embodiment, spirituality, and the truth of being human. I craved connection with others who had faced the depths of loss and emerged transformed. What I needed was immediacy, presence, and a community that could hold the weight of grief and walk with me through the wilderness of the unknown.

This path has initiated me into a profound trust in the intelligence of the soul and the resilience of the human heart. I have come to understand that within great sorrow, there is also great beauty. That in the breaking, there is also becoming.

Today, my work is a living offering—rooted in depth, integrity, and a fierce compassion for those who are in the midst of profound transformation. I hold space for those navigating loss, identity shifts, and the longing for a more honest, embodied, and awakened life. This is not about returning to who you were. It is about honoring who you are becoming
