What People Are Saying
“As my first therapist, Shenaaz's practice was a great way to welcome me into my healing journey towards compassion (for myself and others), self-love, and insight. Her warm spirit, adept questions, and grounding presence guided me as I struggled to find answers to questions such as, "Why do I treat myself far worse than I would treat a friend?" or "How do I find balance in my life?" Shenaaz's grounding in social justice values ensured that I could bring my whole self to our sessions, and talk about my work, my family, my romantic relationships, and my community. I knew that whatever I brought to our conversations, Shenaaz would be rooted in respect for diverse cultures, experiences, and open-mindedness. She also shared extremely practical resources based on our conversations, including TED talks, books, and articles. Honestly, I would not be where I am today without the support and therapy I received from Shenaaz.”
