Introduction

Hello! My name is Dr. Shakesha ( Shai) Evans and I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist. I specialize in early adolescents to later adulthood psychological and socioemotional care. Known to my clients as “ Dr. Shai,” I incorporate a genuine yet practical, “ keep it real” approach to psychotherapy. I hold myself to high standards for my strong psycho-educational, diagnostic, and clinical skills. My treatment is largely relational/systems based and incorporates health, cognitive and behavioral psychology, including attachment theory. I firmly believe in “ your input will determine your output.” Thus, your mental health should be a top priority. In other words, your mindset can set you up or set you back in life. So sometimes, we might need to reset the mind and provide it with a healthier set of skills to gain a better peace of mind. If you are ready to take control over your MIND, and thus control over your LIFE then reach out! You deserve a better quality of life, so let’s get started with some tea! Accepting New Clients. All Clients MUST reside in Texas or be in Texas when conducting telehealth session.
