I have over 25 years of experience doing psychotherapy. I trained with experts at Johns Hopkins Medical School and UCLA. I work with individuals and couples who are experiencing problems in daily living or just dissatisfaction with quality of life, going through transitions as they age, change jobs, being in or out of relationship, going through separation, divorce, even death of a partner, or approaching dating after a loss. I have years of experience dealing with adjustment to chronic disease, including many forms of cancer, AIDS/HIV, being dialysis dependent, multiple surgeries, or facing and living with organ transplant.

Thoughts about food, weight, body image or exercise are constantly on your mind. You wish you could just enjoy your day the way others seem to, but the thoughts intrude and your behaviors become compulsive. You're so tired of your relationship with food interfering with your ability to function day after day. You wish for a break - for relief, calm, for the endless thoughts to cease. But no matter how many times you promise yourself, you can't stop, you can't change - you are stuck.

I meet people where they are to best help them feel safe as we work together. I have been in private practice for 20 years.

My background and training as an Art Therapist was a major determinant in my decision to become a Psychologist and Psychoanalyst. I was enthralled by the power, curative possibilities and revealing nature in the creative process. As a result, my area of particular interest is in working with artists, writers, photographers and individuals in the music industry. I recently opened a second office on the Upper West Side of Manhattan so that I could more conveniently serve the many musicians, writers and working moms in this area! I am an interactive therapist with whom you will take this journey towards a more productive life!

My work as a psychologist centers on problems with anxiety and stress, particularly within the context of our multicultural society. I help people with conflicts in: interracial identity; adolescent-young adult identity and ethnic identity; intergenerational relationships; interracial relationships; and adoption. Such conflicts often coexist with struggles in mood regulation, depression, and anxiety, for which there are effective psychological treatments and healthy solutions.

I am committed to creating a therapeutic relationship that feels safe, supportive and is based on mutual respect. In sessions, my general style is to be interactive and direct, but I also emphasize very close listening. The goals of my interventions vary depending on your evolving struggles, needs and strengths. Together, we work to understand the multi-layered nature of the problem(s) and to find ways to improve your life and alleviate distress.

I work with adults and young adults who are interested in developing increased self awareness and understanding. I help my clients to develop tools for more effective functioning in different areas such as emotional and interpersonal. I teach skills to manage anxiety and mood issues.

My goal is to facilitate growth and productive insight for you. I will collaborate with you to find solutions and progress, and welcome any feedback you have. You should feel supported, understood and safe in our work together.

Dr. Danielle Shelov PhD received her doctoral training at Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Her research was one of the pioneer clinical studies (2008) that examined the importance of yoga, on both mindfulness and emotional well-being. Attention and Awareness are critical to recognizing our feelings as they happen. Once we have awareness, we develop the courage to experience the emotions we have. Therapy allows us the space to do this. We can then begin to live in a way that is genuine and more consistent with our vision of what we want our lives to be.

I strongly believe that one of the most challenging things for one to do in life, is to reach out and ask for help. With this in mind, I believe in fostering a safe space where my patients are able to feel that they can commence upon the therapeutic journey. I believe in being an active part of the therapeutic process, so that together, we can begin to discover more self satisfying and healthier relationships on all levels. Thus leading to healing and exploring deeper insights and connections that might be leading to certain maladaptive patterns of behavior in our lives.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with extensive experience working with anxiety, depression and addiction, both with individuals and with couples. My training is psychodynamic in nature, although I work regularly within a CBT model to reduce and eliminate anxiety symptoms more effectively. I believe in reducing symptoms initially to clear the way for treatment of the underlying issues. I strongly believe in a good match between therapist and patient and, therefore, offer a free consultation so we can both determine whether we can work well and effectively together. My style is warm, non-judgmental and thought-provoking. My approach is direct and interpersonal.

Your story deserves to be listened to with sympathy, acceptance and respect. Together we will work toward your recovery, healing and growth. We will learn how to develop safe and healthy relationships, characterized by compassionate communication and mutual understanding. We will create a lifestyle marked by good self-care and maximum fulfillment in your relationships and your work.

It is my responsibility to provide an environment where my patients feel comfortable so that I can figure out what they need to get better and together we can understand what gets in the way. Patients who have been in therapy with other therapists often tell me that they find our work together to be more helpful. They find that I am a good listener and therefore I respond in ways that patients find meaningful.

Are you searching for better relationships, more satisfaction in work, a sense of well-being or an overall deeper engagement in life? I will work with you to discover what is interfering with your having the life you want. When you begin to know and accept all of your feelings and learn how to use them, success in love and work becomes possible.
