I am still pretty new to better help so I started off with another therapist before Shaleen. I didn’t have a great interaction so I decided to switch therapists and started sessions with Shaleen shortly after. Shaleen has always been very kind, attentive, and helpful during sessions. I feel very comfortable with her and after session always feel like a weight is off my chest. She is a great therapist and recommend her to those who need a bit more of gentle guidance.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Shaleen is extremely helpful in chatting through life challenges.
Somewhat removed, perhaps a bit over worked. She seems to have a good heart. Overall a big fan
Shaleen is the second set of eyes and ears that I really needed! It’s hard to describe how valuable having this type of help at your fingertips is. Shaleen’s experience and ability to listen attentively allows her to recommend very creative and attainable solutions.
So far great sessions. Can't wait to dig deeper.
