Welcome and congratulations for taking this first step on your journey to change and growth! My name is Shelly and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I became a Social Worker because I am passionate about helping people. I became a therapist because I believe in the healing power of conversation, allowing me the privilege to help people overcome obstacles to being joyful, healthy, and connected. I believe we all carry within us the resources we need to enjoy life in a realistic and authentic way.
As a therapist, I help people utilize their thinking, speaking and actions to tap into the present moment and move towards greater health and wellness.
I have experience working with culturally diverse populations of people with treatment in both outpatient and inpatient settings, and dealing with disorders such as anxiety, depression, grief and loss and trauma disorders, such as PTSD and Adjustment Disorder.
