There are situations in our lives that affect us in powerful ways. Therapy offers an opportunity to talk about ourselves in a way that allows us to figure out, explore and cope with that which is distressing, painful and makes us suffer. Why are things not going my way? Why I’m feeling so anxious. Why do the same things keep happening to me? What should I do to not feel sad, depressed and unmotivated? Is this what I want in life?

Whether you are dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, difficult life transitions, substance abuse issues or grief, I offer a safe, non-judgmental place to feel supported and work through these things.
Hello, I’m Shelley. Life is a beautiful journey. However, at times we all face challenges that seem insurmountable, which can cause us to feel isolated, alone, and powerless. “Feelings are messages from our soul – negative ones are a sign that something needs addressing. Not out there – but inside of us.” Unknown. We all have the resources within us to heal ourselves. Sometimes we just need assistance identifying them and a safe place to find the courage to utilize them.

My specialties are in Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity disorders, depression and anxiety disorders, including Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
Because no two patients are alike, therapy should be tailored to each patient, rather than trying to treat everyone with the same theoretical approach. I believe that a therapist’s job is to guide the patient as they learn to change the behaviors and thinking styles that may have once been helpful, but are now getting in their way. Most importantly, I believe it is a therapist's job to teach their patients the skills necessary to eventually function independent of their therapist, allowing them to eventually leave therapy instead of being stuck with having weekly sessions for the rest of their lives!
