I’m Courtlyn Shimada, a therapist with a passion for understanding you and how you thrive. Therapy can be joyful and healing, as well as challenging. Through the highs, lows, and plateaus, I am committed to creating a warm and empowering space where together we can explore any obstacles that life may present. I offer a holistic approach, considering not only your individual dynamics but also the impact of the broader environment and societal systems. Together, we may navigate through feelings of depression, anxiety, or grief, and struggles with chronic illness or significant life changes.
Whether short-term or long-term, I believe in goal-oriented therapy. Don’t worry, though –if you don’t know what your goals are yet, we can figure them out together! My approach includes CBT, Behavioral Activation Therapy, and Strength-Based Psychodynamic and Narrative Therapy. We may also tap into practices such as mindfulness, meditation, art, and writing.
Reach out today for a free phone consult - I look forward to meeting you!
