Our approach supports healing from childhood trauma, phobias, fear of abandonment, and cognitive distortions—empowering you to build boundaries, motivation, and lasting emotional balance.
Thought Shift Therapy is a private practice founded by Cleopatra Zhonga, that focuses on challenging the cognitive distortions that create and maintain negative emotions and behaviors. By focusing on language, unhelpful learned behaviors, and negative worldviews adopted from adverse experiences, clients are able to reframe their ideologies and create new purpose. Through consistency, training, and a balanced lifestyle, our brains can be nurtured to evolve beyond unhelpful learned behaviors and thought patterns that maintain trauma responses and most disorders.

Specializing in helping adults, teens, and children heal from trauma, anxiety, and issues of identity

Now more than ever, you're hoping for someone who can go into dark places with you and help you find your light - someone who advocates for you at your worst and brings out your very best.

I have worked with children and adults suffering from depression, anxiety, and OCD, as well as, sleep related disturbances.
Everyone experiences emotions and situations in life that can be overwhelming, burdening, and anxiety-ridden. Many of these symptoms reflect inner conflicts and desires, but also early attachment patterns. Talking to a professional can help you develop insight and change patterns. My training as a psychodynamic psychotherapist and my previous work in neuroscience have shaped my practice philosophy. I believe that we naturally strive toward growth, safety and making relationships fulfilling. I provide a space where we can explore emotional conflicts, and make meaning of them--the basis for change and developing healthier ways of coping.

My definition of healing starts with truly being seen and heard. As a therapist of a diverse cultural background, I believe in the meaningful change that occurs when we connect through empathy and respect for our individual and unique stories. I understand how cultural dynamics, family experiences, and personal challenges shape our identity with our narratives about ourselves and our world.
I use a blend of person-centered, cognitive-behavioral, and mindfulness-based interventions to help you understand and explore your inner world while holding space for connection and grounding.
