A note from Shanta
Hello, I'm Shanta. My journey into the world of mental health was deeply influenced by my grandparents. Watching the support they received and recognizing the gaps in care for others inspired me to make a difference. I have provided therapy to older adults, pregnant women, and caregivers. The stress that clients, families, and caregivers endure while managing health and mental health issues can be overwhelming, and I'm here to help ease that burden.
