I have had a great experience using the teencounseling.com platform, but my therapist Tasheena is the real MVP. She listens, provides a safe space, and helps me get through this thing called life. Would highly recommend!

She is encouraging to my daughter, communicates quickly with me and helped us find a plan that worked well for us. My daughter was apprehensive at first but now looks forward to seeing Tasheena.

Written on Jun 08, 2023 after therapy with Tasheena for 5 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, self esteem, anger management, and coaching

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.

She continues to be one of the most amazing, smart, helpful, compassionate therapists I’ve ever worked with. Love her.

Written on May 01, 2023 after therapy with Tasheena for 1 year and 6 months on issues concerning addictions, grief, self esteem, and coping with life changes

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 is relatable and approachable which makes opening up easier. She is also very knowledgeable and professional and provides practical, applicable advice and actions steps to tackle issues/concerns.

Couldn't recommend anyone else. Does a great job of listening and letting you guide the conversation to where it should go. Listens well and provides great insight to problems and helps you develope solutions rather than telling you what to do.

Tasheena is such a down-to-earth, positive and reinforcing therapist. I love how real she is with me about my issues and makes me feel comfortable immediately when I sign onto our sessions. I can be 100% myself, which is more than I could ever ask for. I feel accepted in this space ❤️

Tasheena has been a lifesaver, I’ve never been so comfortable and been able to open up and not feel judged. She’s helped me so much, and I couldn’t recommend her enough. She’s an exceptional therapist!

Written on Dec 05, 2022 after therapy with Tasheena for 1 year and 4 months

Tasheena is phenomenal. She really seems to have a great and deeper understanding of how the human mind works and how to make things better, as well as being a phenomenal listener with a good sense of humor. I would 100% recommend Tasheena's services for anyone who is looking for a therapist who understand you and your needs, and is willing to communicate, who is also very flexible.

Written on Nov 17, 2022 after therapy with Tasheena for 10 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, family conflicts, self esteem, career difficulties, and coping with life changes

Tasheena is awesome! She prioritizes what I want to talk about and I really feel like she listens to me. She is challenging but supportive and I know that when I leave a session I will feel better and have an idea of what direction I want to go.

Written on Nov 15, 2022 after therapy with Tasheena for 1 year on issues concerning depression, and self esteem

Tasheena is an incredible, caring, smart, and honest therapist, among other great qualities. I’ve been speaking to her for about a year now, and she’s helped me grow tremendously in that time — I’m in a happier, healthier place in my life, in large part because of her. Everyone deserves a therapist like Tasheena!

I’ve seen a number of different therapists in my life and I am grateful beyond words that I got connected with Tasheena. My favorite thing about her is that she keeps me accountable and is very action oriented - I leave every session with a plan on what I’m going to do to try to improve my mental health.

I don’t know if it’s luck or just an extremely good job but teen counseling, but I have been perfectly matched with my therapist. She seems to understand the struggles of my profession and I would strongly encourage anyone in my field to talk to her!!

Written on Jul 28, 2022 after therapy with Tasheena for 1 year on issues concerning stress, anxiety, intimacy-related issues, eating disorders, sleeping disorders, compassion fatigue, and adhd

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 has been a wonderful therapist! She’s helped me to deal with anxiety, set boundaries, and have confidence in myself. I have found her extremely encouraging and relatable. She also gives me tools to cope and goals to work on.

Written on Feb 08, 2022 after therapy with Tasheena for 2 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, grief, eating disorders, self esteem, career difficulties, and adhd

Tasheena has given me a space where I can completely be myself. She lets me talk through my issues while offering input but ultimately, and what I’ve been trying to do on by myself
unsuccessfully, let’s me think through a resolve on my own.

Written on Jan 31, 2022 after therapy with Tasheena for 6 months on issues concerning relationship issues

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.

Tasheena is a wonderful therapist. She is very easy to talk to and makes every interaction seem like a friend-friend relationship. She has great insight and expertise but it never has an uncomfortable stereotypical therapist feel in any of the sessions. I look forward to every session with her.

Tasheena is a perfect therapist. She is a very real human being who will walk through issues with you and won’t always try to come up with an answer but will actually let you know she wants to spend a little more time thinking through next steps while being their for you in the waiting. I appreciate her genuine care for her patients, I’ve never had another therapist like her.
