Shanika Sanchez

My communication style

Embarking on a journey towards healing takes time. This is a very important decision that you are making. Therefore, I want to support you in the very best ways that I can, and I believe that communication is key when it comes to providing that support. When you choose to work with me, you can schedule an appt for an initial consultation session.

My journey to mental healthcare

The reason I became a therapist is because I wanted to create the very environment that I craved and needed as a child growing up with little guidance on how to manage all these big feelings. I am driven by my intense desire to guide others to find the answers and light within themselves that will lead to ultimate self-acceptance and self-love.

My goals for you

While working with you, I will stand alongside you to help guide you towards reaching the goals that you set for yourself. Throughout our time together, we will complete a treatment plan so that you can identify the areas you want to focus on to experience positive changes in your life. Your treatment goals will guide the work we do together.

Our first session

I will gather information from you to get a better understanding of what you have been experiencing and what you need to begin your healing journey. This is an initial consultation that can take up to 90 minutes. I will make an informed decision on the level of care needed and whether telehealth services are appropriate at this stage.
