Victoria,Canada - October 10, 2022 /PressCable/ —

October 10, 2022. Victoria, B.C. – BestSelfForwardTherapy.com is excited to announce the launch of its new website, which will empower more individuals and couples to strengthen their relationships with themselves and with others.

BestSelfForwardTherapy.com is owned and run by Maha Elias, a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC), Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC), Comprehensive Family Mediator (FMC), and sexual health and trauma-informed practitioner.

Maha specializes in couples counselling and is passionate about helping each individual identify their personal goals and how they can align them with their partner’s.

“I’ve had a strong desire to offer support to those around me from early childhood, having grown up in a war-torn Iraq where trauma, devastation, and pain were common,” Maha said.

“In 2001, after moving to Canada, I enhanced my intuitive skills for conflict resolution and counselling with formal qualifications, allowing me to serve my clients and help them find fulfillment and joy in their lives and all their relationships. With the launch of this new website, I’m excited to make the start of the journey towards healing and growth more accessible for all.”

The website, which has been designed for maximum usability and visual impact, empowers visitors or future clients to discover the best service for them on their own terms. By clearly laying out Maha’s background and qualifications, the types of therapy offered, and what individuals and couples can expect from the sessions, it promotes trust while demonstrating Maha’s innate passion for helping others.

“My goal with this website and in my work as a whole is to help my clients identify what holds them back from living the life they aspire to and work with them on overcoming these obstacles and roadblocks. I support and challenge my clients to leave their comfort zone and together we set out on a journey of self-discovery, recovery and growth.”

For those who aren’t ready to take part in dedicated sessions, the website also offers a blog of resources to better understand what individual and couples therapy entails, and how it can serve you to discover the best version of yourself.

If you’d like more information on the website or would like to speak personally with Maha Elias, you can contact her at https://www.bestselfforwardtherapy.com/contact-us/.

At the end of the day, it all comes down to price. That is why Pat Chung prefers lab-grown diamonds. The 36-year-old Hongkonger says they are much cheaper than a natural diamond for the same quality and size and they are easier to source. “I searched for the exact colour, size and shape that I wanted and sent it to my jeweller,” Chung says, adding that more people are opting for lab-grown diamonds compared to a decade ago. The global trend shows how dramatically the diamond business has changed...

I grew up eating bowls of Chinese migration history. You?

The dining table disappeared beneath a lavish procession of dishes. Our family took food seriously. It was sacred, even. Dinner was never merely about eating. It was the one time each day when everyone was expected to gather, regardless of schedules, moods or whatever else the world demanded outside that room. At the centre sat the pièce de résistance: a whole steamed fish, usually sea bass, topped with ribbons of ginger and spring onion in a fragrant pool of oil and soy sauce. Alongside it were...

How China’s macabre practice of human sacrifice in burials came to an end

Archaeologists have long found a disturbing pattern in the graves of ancient rulers: the dead were sometimes accompanied by other dead. Around royal tombs, the remains of people – who appear to have been killed specifically to follow their masters into the afterlife – lie alongside precious objects and weapons. A new study from Egypt has brought this practice back into the news. At the ancient royal cemetery of Abydos, archaeologists re-examined the skulls of people buried around the tombs of...

How to put together a wardrobe for cool Baguio or cold Japan

The idea of layering is a concept foreign to many Filipinos. That is, until they go on their first overseas trip and realize how it helps one deal with the sudden drop in temperature. A light jacket is fine for Baguio-like weather but sometimes, only layers can help ward off the chill. In the past, one had to go to different stores or, in a bind, borrow a trench coat, puffer or quilted jacket from someone with a similar build. Accessories like mittens, warm gloves and tightly knitted bonnets were also hard to come by unless one was open to buying from a shop selling overruns or previously owned pieces. The arrival of the Japanese apparel brand Uniqlo in 2012 helped take out the guesswork out of layering. It sold many of the elements needed for a trip to a cold-weather country from thermal underwear and heat-retaining pullovers to down jackets and fleece coats. Now, tech-savvy customers can even put together a virtual wardrobe by clicking on the Uniqlo app (uniqlo.com). By typing in the country they plan to visit and the month they will be there, the app can suggest pieces designed to work together. At the flagship store in Glorietta, there is a large touchscreen where visitors can try out the app for themselves. It reminded one of that opening scene in the 1995 movie “Clueless” where Cher (Alicia Silverstone) picks out her OOTD, the now iconic plaid yellow jacket with matching mini skirt. While the process of putting on and doffing the different components during the day can get tedious, trying them on at the store can be a fun experience. This year, their full-zip fleece jackets come in classic solids with raglan sleeves or color-blocked such as black and gray, and brown and beige. It’s a piece worth considering as the brand has been making and updating this particular line since 1994. They also have pile-lined fleece blousons, button-up pullovers, oversized hoodies and a range of down jackets in varying weights and hefts. One reads from their in-store magazine LifeWear that the down and feathers used in their products is “sourced exclusively from waterfowl raised under strict ethical standards.” For their fall-winter 2026 collection, Uniqlo only used feathers from three Chinese facilities. According to the article, “China produces about 40,000 tons of down yearly yet only the top 10 percent of this satisfies Uniqlo’s exacting standards.” The new collection from Uniqlo is available in stores and online. Hoodie day This weekend, Gap is celebrating the hoodie with its Gap Hoodie Day. To mark the occasion, the brand launched a limited edition reversible logo hoodie. Featuring two wearable looks in one, and crafted from Gap’s heavyweight structured fleece, the special-edition style offers a fresh take on a classic icon. Gap collaborated with Filipino artist Denzel Chang to create limited-edition iron-on patches that can be added to the hoodie as a means of expression. Also this weekend, the brand has a buy one, get one promo on all Gap logo styles. All items emblazoned with the Gap logo are included in the promo. Online shoppers (gap.com.ph) can also avail themselves of a 40 percent discount on logo items like the t-shirts, joggers and even the hoodies.

Skin doc brings science, human stories to reality TV series

Dermatologist Dr. Kei George Rebolledo wants viewers to look beyond flawless skin and dramatic before-and-after photos in “Kutis Reveal,” a new reality series that follows 12 Filipinos undergoing dermatological treatments while confronting the personal challenges linked to their skin conditions. The 13-episode series, hosted by Rebolledo, founder of Kutis by Kei, documents the participants’ consultations, treatments, healing and transformations, highlighting the medical process and emotional experiences behind their journeys. “Kutis Reveal” premieres today, Oct. 17, at 10 a.m. on Bilyonaryo News Channel, Channel 31, and airs every Saturday thereafter. During the press conference, he said he developed the program to present a more realistic view of dermatology. “I wanted to combine the medical side with the human side of dermatology. I am very firm about setting expectations because skin conditions cannot simply be cured overnight. This is not a miracle show. This is a real reality show, and we do not make promises just to attract attention or go viral,” Rebolledo said. Unlike programs that focus mainly on dramatic makeovers, “Kutis Reveal” shows the consultations and procedures leading to each participant’s results. The series also explains why certain treatments are recommended and what patients can realistically expect within the program’s treatment period. Rebolledo said he was careful about selecting participants whose conditions could show measurable improvement within the production schedule. He explained that some concerns, such as active acne, may respond more quickly to treatment than scars, which can be more difficult to address. “For acne scars, for instance, I cannot promise that they will disappear completely. I give them a realistic range of improvement based on their condition and the time we have. As doctors, we are not miracle workers. We have to be honest about what we can do and what the patient should expect,” he said. One of the participants is a stage 4 breast cancer survivor who developed scars associated with chemotherapy treatments. Rebolledo said he explained during the consultation that the scars could improve but would not be completely removed. The 12 participants were selected from approximately 200 people who auditioned that included cancer survivors, overseas Filipino workers, domestic abuse survivors, an LGBT advocate, and individuals dealing with mental health challenges. Their skin concerns include acne, acne scars, melasma, psoriasis, pigmentation and other forms of scarring. Rebolledo said the show was also intended to challenge the perception that dermatological care is primarily for celebrities or people seeking aesthetic enhancements. “There are ordinary people who need a dermatologist because their skin condition is affecting their lives. What we are treating is not just the skin. We are also helping these patients regain their confidence,” he said. The filming also became an emotional experience for Rebolledo, who said he did not expect to be so affected by the participants’ stories. He recalled crying several times during production, particularly while witnessing their transformations. Rebolledo said he personally oversees the training of the clinic’s doctors to ensure they follow standardized treatment protocols and provide appropriate care for each participant. “I am very particular when it comes to choosing and training my doctors. I want to make sure that we have standardized protocols across our clinics because consistency is important in treating our patients,” he said. The procedures featured in the program include LDM by Elogio, Rejuran, Blaumann Laser and Sylfirm X, administered through CurJet and Lenisna, depending on each participant’s condition and needs. Through “Kutis Reveal,” Rebolledo hopes to make dermatological education more accessible while encouraging viewers to approach skin concerns with realistic expectations and seek appropriate medical advice. “I want people to realize that their skin condition does not have to define their future,” he said.
