- LMFT
Los Angeles, California, is the birthplace of Dr. Shalanda Kangethe, EdD. I have overcome great obstacles while growing up in south central Los Angeles during the height of gang violence and extreme poverty; those struggles influenced the therapist I've become. I graduated first in my class with an EdD in counseling psychology. I specialize in helping individuals identify and explore emotions that obstruct their ability to grow personally, professionally, and spiritually. I also work with families of origin, childhood trauma, and interpersonal and marital challenges. In addition, I have more than ten years of experience coaching and mentoring people who want to use nonprofits to better impoverished communities.

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.
