My name is Maleka Qureshi, I am a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC), and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC). I have specialized training and working experience with adolescence and adults with Intellectual and developmental disabilities. I provide culturally and linguistically appropriate services. I speak English, Urdu, Hindi, and Gujarati. I have over 10 years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families. The majority of my experience has been working with young adults and adults with dual diagnosis of mental illness, substance related and addictive disorders. I have provided therapy to individuals as well as support to their families. I also have experience helping individuals with phobia, stress and anxiety, anger control problems, low self-esteem, family conflicts and couple/ relationship counseling. I have a passion for helping others achieve more fulfillment and balance in their lives. My approach is to combine different types of psychotherapy and counseling techniques to help you discover and unlock negative thoughts, and patterns of the past, which will allow you to focus on the present and feel more fulfilled and achieve your goals for the future. It is my experience that my clients know themselves better than anyone, they are their own (and my) best resource when it comes to treatment. I see therapy as a joint venture where our knowledge and skills are combined to create solutions. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Great therapist❤️ Really knows how to connect with with you on a personal level
Maleka is great! Really takes time to understand your situation and help where needed. Couldn’t recommend more.
Maleka is a kind soul who obviously enjoys helping people. I was immediately comfortable talking to her and knew immediately that she was a good fit for me. She would likely be of benefit to anybody.
Maleka is calming and grounding. No matter what I am going through, she is non-judging and caring. She has a healing presence and I am grateful to get to work with her.
Can't say enough about Maleka. If I could recommend her to all my family, friends, co-workers, strangers on the street, I would. Her straight-forward, sometimes hard-hitting approach, related "homework" because that's the way I learn best, and relevant parable game are un-matched. I have gotten further with Maleka than I have any other therapist I've worked with throughout my life, and that's been multiple. It is apparent that she puts in time outside of the sessions to analyze and create a plan for the following session. Always timely, always a positive energy - I am glad to have been matched with this standout professional in my journey.
Awesome, makes me feel comfortable
Maleka has been a key player in assisting me with my issues and guiding on me on my healing journey. She has a beautiful way of presenting different perspectives to show you what you otherwise may not be able to see. Her tools are some of the best I have come across and if carried out with the right intent, they work wonders. I look forward to my session with her every week and I am beyond grateful for how much she has helped me and left a positive impact on me. Therapy with Maleka has truly been the best decision for me. :)
Strong background and motivational
Maleka is so kind and patient. She helps me from being able to balance having to talk and also allowing me to hear a perspective I may not have thought of. She’s very open and understanding.
She's great!
Great therapist with good suggestions. Listens to you and doesn’t interrupt which is amazing!
