This is my first time prioritizing and addressing my mental health. KaShanda was very welcoming, easy to talk to, and gave me some realistic and practical methods for starting my journey to feel better. I am looking forward to our next session.

I am obviously depressed and in a bad space but instead of her helping through it she said she didn’t think we would be a good match.
