Helpful Resources

As wellness and mental health providers, we want you to be well-informed and we are often recommending resources that we think will help to enhance your journey. 

Some of these are resources that we have found personally to be of great value. 

Others are resources that we have heard high praises about from clients, other providers, and other professionals. 

At times, we can quickly pull a book or other item off of our shelf as an illustrative reference. At other times, you may find yourself endless searching for that helpful needle in a haystack. 

Together, providers at Dakhari Psychological Services, LLC have worked to curate resources and to partner with Amazon to help you more readily locate items and to purchase them. While these resources are not being recommended by us as a specific endorsement of any claim, are not intended to treat or cure any illness/disease, and remain at the discretion of the original author/developer/manufacturer – we do hope that the resources will prove helpful.
