Are you feeling anxious, angry, depressed, stressed, stuck, alone or misunderstood? Stressed by the impact of the Corona virus pandemic? Whether it's about loss, trauma, job, partner, school, friendships, children or aging parents, working with a psychologist can help. In the therapy process you can learn coping skills, safely express feelings, make changes and take action toward the kind of life you want. I offer consultation and therapy both in the office and through secure videoconferencing. I am licensed and accepting patients in CT, GA, and FL. For more information, visit my website at richardshapirophd.com.
I am Board Certified in Clinical Psychology. Board Certification is a national credential and recognizes demonstrated competence in the specialty of Clinical Psychology. I am also a Board Certified Telehealth professional. I have been offering therapy by video for years and find it highly effective.
In this time of added uncertainty, stress and anxiety caused by the Corona virus pandemic talking with a mental health professional can help you cope with the unique challenges we are all facing as a result of this world wide crisis. You can find resources on my website.
