Hi, I'm Dr. Kisha Bashkiharatee. My background includes a Masters in Clinical and School counseling, and my PhD is in Family Studies. I have loved being a part of the mental health field since I took my first psychology class in high school, but since it was really hard to find counseling jobs in high school, I decided to continue my education. At each level, I have been able to learn more about myself and become more grounded in my field. Sometimes in life, it feels like we are heading to a destination, but we don’t have the whole road map. It can be scary, confusing, and lonely. I want to support individuals in finding the tools to help navigate, redirect, and reorient their lives, and I would be greatly honored to be a part of your journey.
In our first session, we will get to know each other. I jokingly say, it's like a first date. We are just getting to know each other. I will ask background questions, you can ask me questions, and we figure out what's next together.
I am very supportive of my clients and want them to find success.
I enjoy supporting individuals with anxiety, self-esteem concerns, relationships concerns, and overall stressors.

I've been coming to Dr. Kisha for two months now and she's been such a gem in my life. She's open-minded, honest and hilarious. Finding a good therapist has been a challenge, but I feel extremely blessed to have found Dr. Kisha. I highly recommend her!

Dr. Kisha has made a tremendous impact on my well-being and life, in general! I hate that I was only allowed to select two positive qualities about her therapy style, because she actually ticks all the boxes: She's intelligent, warm, authentic, humorous and empowering. She manages to elicit honest admissions & incite self-interrogation in a way that is wholly without judgment and designed for self-discovery and emotional health. Sessions with her are now integral to me; so grateful for her care!
