Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Shay Bankston. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.

Shay is a great listener and offers great advice. I feel as though she actually listens and not just heard what I say. She is personable and I feel as though I'm talking to friend but yet still in a professional atmosphere.

Shay is the first therapist that has been able to connect with my daughter. She brings a compassionate, understanding atmosphere to the appointments and my daughter even looks forward to their sessions.

Work with me!
