Recent reviews
Shanti is another level of therapist. She has the ability to really get to the heart of the issue at hand, sees you as a human, and has something special that enables her to help where others may not have been successful. She sees the long term and makes sure that’s part of the plan. She isn’t a quick fixer. Shanti is very talented and a gem to have in our area.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Shanti is another level of therapist.

She sees the long term and makes sure that’s part of the plan. She isn’t a quick fixer. Shanti is very talented and a gem to have in our area.
I've had 2 sessions with her so far and she has been so great. She is attentive. She listens when I talk. She gives great tips on how to handle my week until the next session. She gives worksheets that are relevant to the things we've discussed. I am already looking forward to my next appointment.
She’s amazing. Very considerate of one’s preferred way of communicating and is very supportive, knowledgeable, and understanding. I’m glad I picked her.
I was unsure about therapy for a while. But Shanti made me feel comfortable, and now I look forward to our sessions every week.
She listens well& gives you time to reflect on what you are trying to say
