Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Oksana Shiell. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.
Oksana has helped me through a difficult time in my life and I am beyond greatful!
Oksana is down to earth and tells it plainly like it is. She boils down what I thought was complicated into a simple statement of observation. I find her efficient, a great listener, caring and professional. There will be a few laughs too. She represents common sense!
Oksana is very helpful in listening and providing the support I need to help tackle the issues surrounding my life.
Oksana is fabulous!
great listener
Oksana turned out to be a wonderful surprise-replacement for my therapist that I had for years but then moved away for a career opportunity. Oksana is very different in so many ways, yet exactly what I need at this stage of my life. I am grateful for her genuineness, patience and perspective.
Very helpful and thoughtful.
My first time going through therapy wasn’t as scary as I thought.
I am very grateful for Oksana and her compassion, encouragement, insight, and understanding. I was able to open up and share with her, my most vulnerable feelings without feeling any shame, which was outstanding!!! At the lowest time in my life and the most challenging time, she gave me validation and the tools I needed to regulate my emotions and be grounded.
So thankful for her!
I am really enjoying the conversation with Oksana. She is an outstanding listener, focused, upbeat, and extremely learned. Our discussions have been significant and depthful, and she is extremely considerate about issues and intensity. Very grateful for this service and happy to be looking forward to continuing the dialogue.
Oksana is amazing - she has broken through defenses with my teen son in a way no-one else has. I’m so grateful to her!
Oksana is a great listener and I appreciate all her feedback and follow ups! She is truly a great therapist!!

We have both invested in the therapist/patient relationship which provides a sturdy platform of trust in my opinion.

Oksana is a godsend. From the very start, she has been attentive, responsive, proactively communicative, patient, professional… She really listens and makes you feel that you have her undivided attention, which you do. She offers an honest, objective perspective while remaining compassionate and caring. Oksana has intuition that is rare to find. She picks up on subtleties and walks you through thought processes to make it all make sense. Each session with her is like a breath of fresh air. I am so grateful for Oksana’s help!
