Shaiuana Okoro is the best therapist ever! My only regret is not starting sooner. I can’t say enough about the incredible impact Shaiuana Okoro has had on my life. From the very first session, I felt seen, heard, and truly understood. She creates such a warm, non-judgmental space where it’s easy to open up and be vulnerable. Shaiuana Okoro has an extraordinary ability to ask the right questions, gently guiding me to uncover insights and solutions I didn’t realize I had within me. Every session is a perfect balance of compassion and constructive support, leaving me feeling empowered and hopeful. What sets Shaiuana Okoro apart is faith, her genuine care and dedication. It’s clear that this isn’t just a job for her, it's a calling. Shaiuana Okoro remembers the small details, follows up on past conversations, and tailors every session to my unique needs and goals. Thanks to Shaiuana Okoro, I’ve grown in ways I never thought possible. I’ve learned to manage my emotions, build healthier relationships, and approach life with a newfound sense of clarity and resilience.If you’re looking for a therapist who is skilled, compassionate, and truly transformative, I wholeheartedly recommend Shaiuana Okoro. Working with her has been one of the best decisions of my life.

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.
