Hi, I’m Sheila! Life can feel overwhelming sometimes, and it’s easy to think you have to handle everything on your own—but you don’t. My goal is to provide you a safe, judgment-free space where you can talk openly and feel supported. I have experience working as a Youth Development Counselor in a high school, supporting teens through tough emotions, and big transitions. I’ve worked with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, anger, and other challenges.

“Strength doesn’t come from what you can do, it comes from overcoming the things you thought you couldn’t do”. Reaching out for therapy is the definition of strength. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Masters degree from Monmouth University. I have 16 years experience working intensively alongside a psychiatrist in an outpatient mental health setting prior to starting my own private practice in 2020. This experience was extremely valuable in sharpening my diagnostic skills and treatment planning abilities with clients. I enjoy working with individuals, families, and couples as well as other relationship conflict issues.

Life shapes us all. I help adults who struggle with depression, anxiety, life's frustrations and their limiting beliefs that keep them stuck, to gain meaning and understanding of their life stories by learning to gain clarity of how life shaped them, to shift their internal beliefs and life so they can live from their essence and experience healing, joy, fulfillment and peace. My ideal client is he or she who has courage to go within to do the internal emotional healing work, is self-motivated, ready to make lasting change and is active in the therapy process.

Everyone around you has moved on. Your therapist is helping you cope. Your friends are tired of hearing about it. But you are not okay — and you know that what's happening to you is bigger than coping strategies and breathing exercises can touch. Maybe you've been told you're depressed. Maybe you are. But something in you knows this is more than a chemical imbalance. This is a reckoning. You need someone who has been here before. Someone who won't flinch. Someone who knows the difference between a problem to be solved and a life that is changing you from the inside out.

It can be difficult to make the strong and often necessary choice to begin therapy. By taking the time to look through these profiles, you are starting the process of feeling at home and connected to yourself again-or for the first time. You may be experiencing a difficult transition, having relationship challenges with your significant other, children or peers. Perhaps you are not feeling like yourself, or able to feel the joy you once felt, experiencing feelings of low self-worth or frustrated with the way things are right now and it is time to make a change.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or like your emotions are running the show, you’re not broken, and you’re not alone. Sometimes we feel too much or not enough, and either way, it can pull us away from the life we want to be living. Therapy with me goes beyond just talking. I take a brain-based, evidence-driven approach to help you understand how your mind and body are working and how to shift patterns that no longer serve you. My style is compassionate, honest, and direct, creating a space where you feel supported while also being gently challenged to grow.

I've worked in clinical social work for nearly 30 years. I have a perspective that understands anxiety issues, especially during life transitions. However, I recognize the resilience that allows each of us to survive and thrive. I believe that effective therapy bridges the gap between anxiety and that resilience.My experiences in domestic violence, in hospitals with seriously ill patients, with adolescents and their families in drug and alcohol treatment centers, and ten years as a school social worker in an affluent suburb have afforded me the opportunity to assist clients through challenges we face.

Hi! Nice to "meet" you. My role as a therapist is to help you navigate through life's transitions. My therapeutic goal with clients is to provide that safe space to work through life’s troubles. When a time comes where problems are interfering with your capacity to function properly, therapy can be a great help. I believe that therapy can be the gateway from the life you currently live to the life you want to live. I primarily use CBT, DBT and EMDR with my clients. Acknowledging that we are human and we do not always get it right or know all of the answers is a sign of strength and willingness to grow.

From the outside, you have it all together. You’re capable and driven…but it’s hard to turn it off, and it’s taking a toll. You may find yourself overthinking, carrying constant pressure, or feeling like you should be handling things better than you are. I work with high-functioning, motivated individuals who feel held back by past experiences, ingrained mindset patterns, or systems that are no longer working. Together, we identify what’s underneath these patterns and create a clear path forward that aligns with how you want to think, feel, and function.
