I have been working on my anxiety with Ikesha and so far the experience has been really helpful and effective. I can feel a difference already in my mood and anxiety levels. She makes me feel heard and takes the time to really listen to what I am saying.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Working with Ikesha has been game-changing. Wish I made the decision to work with a therapist sooner.
I have been working on my anxiety with Ikesha and so far the experience has been really helpful and effective. I can feel a difference already in my mood and anxiety levels. She makes me feel heard and takes the time to really listen to what I am saying.
I liked Ikesha from the start. She's down to earth & understands what my issues are. She's helpful & has shared one of her experiences with me. Ikesha is easy to talk to.
Ikesha really helped me through a very difficult time in my life. She is a great listener and reality check when needed. Very empathetic - I know that she is on my side, and wants me to get better, feel better. I highly recommend Ikesha!
Ikesha has been very helpful in helping me work on setting boundaires, on understanding why what’s happening is happening, confirming some of my thoughts. I much appreciate the help.
Ikesha has been a life saver, she’s kind, she listens and asks wonderful thought provoking questions, she follows up with me, and makes me really feel heard. Shes such a positive person in my life right now, as well as calling it as it is, which I truly appreciate. If you happen to get Ikesha, you are lucky!
I’ve only had one appointment because I work way too much but from the one appointment I like Ikesha so far. I think she’ll challenge me when I need to hold myself accountable.
Ikesha has been very helpful in confirming how I feel, or what I believe is right or wrong in my relationship, but she does that by also challenging me to make sure I’ve done what I should be doing, that I’m making the effort to right the ship, which makes me feel more secure in the decisions I’ve made, and that I am making.
She is a great therapist, listens and provides great conversations during therapy.
Ikesha is an amazing counselor. I have never felt like I've connected with any other counselor as much as I have with her. She knows how to create a safe place where I feel like I am understood and have support in working through my issues. I've noticed one thing she helps me with a lot is "rewriting the story." I have a narrative in my head of how I think things are, but she shows me a whole new perspective. This has often been very helpful.
I am always so anxious and uncomfortable right before therapy. This is the first time I am investing time into my mental well-being and its scary. However, Ikesha ALWAYS makes me feel she is really truly listening and thinking of questions/ways to help me thru my issues. At the end of every session I am always so happy that I opened up to her and she gives me practical advice on how to move forward and change my habits or ways of thinking to be a better/happier person. I can't thank you enough :-)
She is a great listener and responds via message very quickly. She knew my culture played a huge part in how my situation started and why I am in my current situation, and she quickly familiarized herself with some basic culture information to better understand me.
Professional, listens, helpful with her questioning.
Ikesha is wonderful! She is super relatable and gives good practical advice. She listens well and remembers what is important to me. I always feel more grounded and empowered after our sessions!
She is an amazing therapist to speak to, she listens and she takes her time with me.
Gentle and respectful, but refreshingly direct and clear when that is necessary for me to see my issues from a new perspective. Can absolutely recommend.
Ikesha is a good therapist;she take the time to listen before responding. Her advice this far has been great.
She is phenomenal!
Ikesha was very helpful to me. She encouraged me to find ways to deal with the problem I was experiencing and pointed out what I was doing that achieved success in solving my issues. She was also very kind which was exactly what I needed. Loved her!
Ikesha is great!
She has helped me to live a much better and more comfortable life since we have started sessions together.
Ikesha had a nice way of both being your therapist and your life experience coach at the same time. She give both credible scientific answers as well as a more relaxed, human interpretation of a question. Examples, anecdotes, and personal stories are provided to help you see your own struggles through a different lens.
Ikesha really listens and give out great suggestions. She always makes me feel free to talk about whatever on my mine.
Ikesha has been such a blessing in my life. She is present, gracious, intelligent, responsive, and all around a pleasure to have in my life. I have seen myself grow in the short period of time being with her. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone!
