Great help and advice really understanding and put me at ease throughout my chat
Charlie
Charlena has been my life coach for many years now. When I first started with her, she showed me how to reach my goals and make the necessary changes to sustain over the long haul.
I was at that time in need of improving my relationships with family and friends, but also needed help managing my stress and anxiety. I completed a course of sessions with her which provided me the skills I needed to make the changes in my life. Was it work.... Yes! She expected me to work for the change, she made me accountable for my actions.
A few years ago, I decided to start up a business. I immediately sought out her services again to help me set reasonable goals to be able to succeed. She has been instrumental in supporting me to make difficult business decisions. If you are looking for a coach or therapist who won't give up on you, will NOT judge you and works as hard for you as you are for yourself, then look no further. She is a excellent person who can deliver you the services you are looking for with empathy. You want results... this is your person

Gina Massey

Received a call from Charlena regarding a request made, She did go through a lot with me and explain things well but I expressed concerns regarding online therapy over face to face and was not impressed with the dismissal i received. Didn’t feel like she was very empathetic towards someone trying to reach out for therapy that would be best suited for them. More...

Gina. I am sorry you felt that I was not empathetic. It certainly wasn't my intent. I believe I was just trying to give you all the information and knowledge I had about the current situation. It was my intent to make a recommendation to you on someone I knew who would be able to help you face to face. If you still feel like you would like this referral, please let me know.

Apologies, I referred to the wrong provider in my review.
I was impressed by the response and level of interest in my issues, as well as the willingness to listen. Thank you

Hi Peter. Thank you for clearing up the message. I really do try and respond personally to each request. I am sorry to hear however, that you have had a negative experience from someone else. Let me know if there is anything I can help.

I am really glad I met Charlena. For years, I felt something was missing in my life. I always felt sad. I decided to try some therapy. It was hard work, but she was always there to encourage me and she has an incredible way of helping without being judgmental. Her knowledge and expertise really shines. More...
Captain Sam
I had been working as a deckhand on yachts for years. After just a few sessions with Charlena, she encouraged me to set my goals and showed me how to work towards them.
Six months later and I am now the Captain of a private yacht. My salary has jumped five fold, and my job satisfaction is through the roof!
Despite being on the other side of the planet, Charlena was easy to work with as her online forms and Zoom meetings meant I could do the work from my tablet, on my schedule. This was very important to me as to see someone in their office would have been impossible when we were out at sea. But with Charlena, all I needed was an internet connection... any place, any time. I even had a session with her while I was sitting on a deserted beach under a palm tree.
She has changed my life, and I am forever grateful!

Charlena helped me put my life onto the right path. She guided me through the difficult decisions with honesty, kindness and understanding. She helped me see that the best path isn't always the easiest and helped calmed my anxiety for change. Without Charlena's help I would have just settled, never pushing myself, never challenging myself and never knowing what I am capable of. I 100% recommend :) More...

Jenn
This was a super great experience! From the discovery call to the end of my program, Char was so helpful in helping me identify my needs, helping me strive for my goals, and guiding me to reach them!
She is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and has a great online system that allows for ease and convenience to complete her programs!
I haven't worked with a life coach before, but this was definitely positive and life-changing experience!!! A+ and highly recommend!

What do you love most about your job?
At Solymar, what we love most is being trusted with people’s real stories — not just their symptoms or surface-level struggles, but the truth of who they are and what they’re carrying.
We work with clients from all over the world — expats, professionals, creatives, and people navigating complex lives — and we deeply value the opportunity to create a private, grounded space where they don’t have to perform, explain, or pretend.
Whether it’s helping someone feel less overwhelmed, more connected to themselves, or simply seen for the first time in a while, we’re honoured to do work that is both quietly powerful and personally meaningful.
No pressure, no labels — just real human connection, offered with care and integrity.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Solymar was founded on the belief that emotional support should be private, culturally aware, and accessible — no matter where you live.
After years of working in traditional settings, we saw too many people fall through the cracks: expats without access to local therapists, professionals afraid to open up, and individuals who felt pathologised when what they really needed was space to be human.
We started Solymar to offer a different kind of service — one that meets people where they are, both geographically and emotionally, with no pressure and no one-size-fits-all approach. Just personal, respectful care built around your life.
