I strive to create a safe, compassionate, and judgment-free space where clients feel heard, supported, and respected.

Shanelle was on time for the appointment. She listened to my concerns and used her knowledge to recommend a solution that I needed.
Verified patientVideo visit
I requested receiving psychological testing. The provider did not seem to be aware of this beforehand and had additional assessments they wanted me to fill out for anxiety, depression and PTSD. During the session, they didn’t ask me any in depth questions, I had to bring up my more severe symptoms and the timeframe of the symptoms even though that information is needed for a diagnosis. Their listing said they could do an ADHD assessment but only gave me a self-report form and didn’t explain nor ask follow up questions with the result. The entire session was 30 minutes. Psychological testing usually takes hours. After the session, I asked to view the assessments I had filled out and was told they were in the portal. There was nothing there, the assessments had to be emailed to me, and then I was told I didn’t take a PTSD assessment despite us going over my score in the session. I wouldn’t recommend this provider for testing, but I think they would be a good psychiatrist.
