Waseem creates a unique environment to open up which separates him from others.

I have worked with Waseem for awhile now and he creates a space where it is easy to talk to him and communicate. I can honestly say he has helped me tremendously. Highly recommend!Posted on Naim ShuaipajTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. In this day and age it is very difficult to find good resources for mental health care. I’ve known Waseem for some time now through his different roles in previous organizations. I am thrilled he entered independent practice. Since he has I’ve taken solace in knowing when I refer for CBT I have someone thoughtful and available to help. I love that his practice offers virtual visits for convenience sake but the fact that he is also available for in person appointments was the key for me to refer my patients to him. In this recent years with other online platforms I’ve had bad experiences suggesting them to my patients because they tell me it is unreliable and most importantly when they need it most there is nobody there to help. I’ve not been in practice for long but from what I have seen the healthcare field has become very skewed towards prescribing and moving on. CBT and other forms of therapy are the most well studied and best treatments according to every clinical trial I am genuinely SO GLAD I have found my long term resource and partner for all my patient’s mental health needs.Posted on Abdallah N.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t recommend Waseem enough! From the very first session, he created a space that felt safe and judgment-free, making it easy to open up about things I usually struggle to talk about. He has a great way of asking thoughtful questions that really make you reflect and gain clarity. Waseem doesn’t just listen—he helps you see patterns, understand yourself better, and find realistic ways to move forward. Every session feels meaningful, and I always leave feeling more grounded and supported. Truly an amazing therapist!Posted on muad assafTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Before Healing Helps therapy I was in a dark place.However after multiple amazing sessions with Waseem I am feeling so much better.I strongly recommend Healing Helps to anyone that is struggling.Posted on JoeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I'll be honest, I was skeptical at first and a little anxious about starting therapy. I didn't know what to expect or if it would even help me. But working with Waseem has been one of the biggest blessings in my life. He creates such a safe and positive environment that I actually look forward to every session. Since starting, I've made real progress, and he has helped me unlock parts of myself I didn't even realize were holding me back. Waseem has a way of bringing light and clarity that I never thought was possible, I'm truly grateful for the changes I've experienced. Thank you for being the best Waseem!!Posted on Michael cTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve really enjoyed working with Waseem over the past 5 or so years. He’s great. Highly recommendPosted on Joey Behr
