Sheira Kahn, MFT

I found Sheira through a friend in Oakland who had been a client of Sheira’s and recommended her. I worked with Sheira over Skype (something I was initially hesitant about) and had a really amazing experience. I sought Sheira’s help for anxiety related to problems in my work life. The anxiety was getting very high and interfering with my ability to get through the day. Sheira understood my problem better than the two other therapists with whom I sought counsel. She is not the type of therapist who only sits and listens. She offers resources and information when needed. In my opinion, however, the reason i got stronger from talking to Sheira is that her nonjudgemental presence showed me how to stop criticizing and rejecting myself. Combined with her support to take new action, I felt more energy in my life and started making better choices. I was very happy to have found Sheira during that rough spot. I highly recommend!

Sheira Kahn is incredible. She is so deeply compassionate and loving. I felt immediately comfortable in her presence and I really love the wisdom I gain from her insights and reflections. She’s very intuitive and balances that perceptiveness with left brain logic which feels very grounding to me. Sheira is also a great listener and she creates a safe place to examine, expand and grow. She’s the BEST. I highly, highly recommend her. :)

Sheira is the best therapist. The best. I always, always feel better after talking something through with Sheira. She has this way of looking at problems and situations with a fresh and different perspective. She is also extremely kind and non-​judgmental, so I feel as though I can always be completely honest with her and show her the dark and icky places without feeling like I want to hide anything from her. I do sessions with her both in person and on Skype and I can’t even begin to explain how helpful she has been. I feel like my whole life has opened up since working with Sheira. She has helped me to create a path in front of me that I didn’t think was possible before. She has helped me to remove blocks that were inhibiting me from having a good life. She has helped me to create things for myself that I never even thought were possible. I can’t tell you how much better I feel since I’ve begun to talk to her. She is so smart and so open and so able to see the many different sides of a problem. Obviously I’m a huge fan. If you are looking for a therapist or a couples counselor, definitely give Sheira a call. Working with her will change your life.
