Shantel Dardashti

My name is Shantel, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in California. Serving as a psychotherapist is one of the most fulfilling roles of my life. I consider it a profound privilege to provide a safe, supportive space where you can freely share your story, experiences, thoughts, and feelings. I specialize in helping individuals navigate life’s transitions, build their identity, and discover their purpose and passion for life. I also specialize in treating depression and anxiety, trauma, and self-esteem challenges. I use a collaborative, client-centered approach to build trust and tailor each session to your unique needs and goals. My priority is to create a relaxing, empowering environment where you feel secure. By building a strong rapport and practicing active listening, I strive to ensure you always feel safe, heard, respected, and deeply understood.
