Sharkea Hicks is a great therapist. She helped me to understand reasons I maybe feeling the way I do about my primary concern. Also, she gives me realistic first steps to move through my experience.

Amazing therapist

Sharkea is absolutely wonderful! My daughter looks forward to her sessions with her each week and I can see a huge improvement in her mental health and confidence level. Sharkea is also extremely responsive to me, as the parent, any time I have a question or concern, all while protecting my daughter's privacy. I highly recommend Sharkea for teen counseling!

Work with me!
