I am always so anxious and uncomfortable right before therapy. This is the first time I am investing time into my mental well-being and its scary. However, Ikesha ALWAYS makes me feel she is really truly listening and thinking of questions/ways to help me thru my issues. At the end of every session I am always so happy that I opened up to her and she gives me practical advice on how to move forward and change my habits or ways of thinking to be a better/happier person.
I can't thank you enough :-)

She is a great listener and responds via message very quickly. She knew my culture played a huge part in how my situation started and why I am in my current situation,
and she quickly familiarized herself with some basic culture information to better understand me.

Ikesha is an amazing counselor. I have never felt like I've connected with any other counselor as much as I have with her. She knows how to create a safe place where I feel like I am understood and have support in working through my issues. I've noticed one thing she helps me with a lot is "rewriting the story." I have a narrative in my head of how I think things are, but she shows me a whole new perspective. This has often been very helpful.
