I initially booked an appointment at Hatch-Me to deal with some personal issues I was having. Through my first discussions with my therapist, a number of new things have come up that I decided I should also work on. Needless to say, my therapy sessions have been evolving and I now have a list of items I am addressing with a goal of improving my life. I am very grateful to have found Hatch-Me and my therapist Marina. Through the ups and downs I am happy to say that my life, my satisfaction with my life and how I conduct myself in difficult situations has been trending upwards towards a way I am more proud of.
I have been skeptical about therapy, and know that successful therapy depends heavily on a good match between patient and therapist, but I'm SO glad to have jumped in at Hatch-Me. The team at Hatch-Me is compassionate, attentive, insightful and just an all around pleasure to deal with. To anyone reading this who is considering therapy, just do it. It's difficult to explain how it has benefited me, but I look forward to every appointment I have coming up. Shani is an absolute pleasure to deal with as well.

My life was completely different before I met Marina Stamatakos.
I remember when I first came to Marina, being anxious about absolutely everything as I am a pretty anxious person, and she was the one who helped me.
Throughout our sessions she became not only a therapist for me, but a coach and a friend. I have not met a person with whom I would be able to speak so easily and fairly.
Marina helped my mental health a lot; she helped to change my vision of different things and showed me plenty of strategies to help myself in stressful situations.
I will be forevermore thankful to Marina, to wonderful Shani, one of the kindest people I have ever met, and to the whole community of Hatch-Me.
You are saving people and you are saving our mental health!

I was misdiagnosed and had wasted years of my life going to therapists that did nothing to help me. Just cliche empathy statements and nothing useful.
Shani truly breaks the mold as a therapist. He helps even when I’m in a crisis and text him last minute. He sacrifices his time to make sure I’m safe. If you have depression, anxiety, or literally any hardship and need solid guidance, choose Shani! My friend had another therapist from this company and loved her too. I recommend everyone to hatch me

Shani is amazing at what he does, he’s incredibly knowledgeable, caring, and an amazing support to have on your healing journey. Also especially great with neurodivergence which I appreciate a lot.

This may not be the place where I started my self-healing era, but it is the place where I made the most progress. I was referred to this place, and specifically to Shani, and I was told that in his therapy he was kind, understanding, knowledgeable, and practical. Shani is all that and more. He is also generous, straightforward, empathetic, compassionate, and most of all curious. Shani's one and only goal is to make sure that his patients are able to stand on their own two feet again, and face life, and all it's challenges head-on with confidence and belief in themselves; I have not known him to judge, presume, or invalidate.
In our sessions, Shani made sure to first fully understand my challenges; what I faced, and how it affected me; and only after he had that understanding did we discuss a tailored treatment and next steps.
That is only part of what I am willing to share, but know that if you truly want to heal and make concrete changes to your life, Shani is the therapist you want, period.

I am grateful to have had Shani be a resource and support during a difficult transition in my life. I had enough self-awareness to google 'therapy' and Hatch-Me came up. It was the reviews that led me to finally submit a request to connect with someone, and I met Shani. I understand why he encourages his patients, once we are in a better headspace, to share our experiences here in order to potentially attract other souls searching for support. There is no pressure, but an understanding of how reviews drive awareness - I am here for it.
If you are looking for some guidance, support, or a path to a better headspace, I encourage you to check HM out and meet with anyone on the team.
Shani - you are an angel. You provided appropriate therapeutic support and relevant guidance to me during a dark time in my life. Your dedication is unparalleled. You are so accommodating, work around my timings, when I'm late, hungry or when I am in a situation where I need a call or text - you do your best to be there, and you are. It tells me that you actually care about me, my wellbeing, and you want to see me thrive. I hope I am fortunate enough to know you forever. I can assure you I will continue to visit HM whenever I need to kick my negative thoughts in the 'behind'and focus on budling the life I know I deserve because, I Love myself enough to try a little more each day. Thank you for that.
From my experience, Shani is patient, but he will also confront your thought patterns when needed. He will support you with reassurance and also challenge you to move outside of a comfort zone. He will be clear and forthright about what one needs to do (unique to them) for overall health and wellbeing.
If you care and love yourself enough to want to make some positive changes in your headspace, I encourage you to make an appointment. I can assure you, you won't regret it. Thank you again Hatch-Me and Thank you always Shani. Love, an exposed Gill.
