I feel...pleased. She continues to make me feel better about the idea that I could finally start feeling okay in the future.

Khadeeja helped me at a critical time in my life right before my first child was born and I was trying to repair an out of control family relationship. At a time where I felt hurt, lost, and desperate for a clear path, Khadeeja helped me cope with what was going on, brainstorm my next steps, and encouraged me as I tried my best to not only repair the relationship, but protect myself from the abuse I was receiving. My current self, my family, and especially my future child will benefit greatly because of the steps I took with Khadeeja’s help.
Khadeeja would always respond to my messages in a timely manner and we even had an impromptu video call when I needed it the same day. She would really read my messages even though they were often very long and she would refer to them throughout our conversations. She would check up on me from time to time, especially when she knew I was going through an event involving the family relationship I needed help with. She remembered things from previous sessions, and would bring them up regularly. Khadeeja really made me feel listened to and supported the entire time she was my therapist. She puts in the work, and I could feel it every time we spoke.
I highly recommend Khadeeja. I love meeting people who are passionate about what they do, and I knew Khadeeja is one of those people as soon as we started our first video chat. And she still exceeded my expectations. Thank you for your help, Khadeeja. I really believe I have become a much stronger person through this process, and you helped tremendously.

I’ve gone to therapy on and off. This is the only therapist I’ve truly enjoyed. She holds me accountable, encourages me, checks in if needed, and so much more. I am so grateful I found her.
