I cannot recommend my therapist highly enough. She is incredibly dependable and genuinely caring especially in qualities that make all the difference when you’re seeking support. From the very first session, I felt completely comfortable opening up to her. She listens to my problems with full attentiveness, never rushing or judging, and always makes me feel heard and understood.

I have had countless therapist in the past. Tasheena is by far the best i’ve ever had. She’s the only one who makes me feel like I’m talking to a friend instead of someone paid to listen to me. She gives great advice and truly seems like she cares. I would recommend her to absolutely anyone.

Tasheena is an absolutely stellar therapist. She takes the time to understand all my issues, asks extremely thought-provoking questions, sends amazing journal prompts, and gives me super useful feedback on whatever I have to discuss that week. I have greatly improved the way I cope with problems and approach situations over the last year or so, and I attribute it largely to her!

Tasheena was the perfect match for me. She was open and easy to talk to right off the bat; building real rapport from the start helped me gain so many insights through our conversations. She helped me in ways that are difficult to explain, but I feel more confident in myself, more self-assured about my own mind/decisions, and better equipped to deal with moments rife with anxiety. Therapy with Tasheena was an exercise in real growth and self-care; what a gift.

Tasheena is one of those people that you meet and are instantly comfortable around. She's everything the other reviews say and more. She's honest, she's genuine, and her immense intellect continues to impress me each week. Without knowing it she saved and forever changed my life. With her help, I am not the same man that I was when I started therapy. I now have a much better grasp on life and relationships and know how to put in the work to continue to become a more healthy person. I hope to one day take these teachings and help others. So Tasheena, you're the best therapist there ever will be and one of the best people I've ever met. You're 1 in 7.9 billion. From the bottom of my heart.. THANK YOU for everything.
