Shira is a licensed therapist who is passionate about the journey we can take from surviving to thriving. She is certified as a clinical trauma professional, aiming to provide a safe space for the whole person (mind and body) to engage in the therapeutic process. She works with a variety of ages and cultural backgrounds and utilizes a strength-based approach tailored to each of her clients. Shira completed advanced training in trauma focused-cognitive behavioral therapy, an evidenced-based modality to help clients feel empowered in regulating intense emotions.
Shira employs techniques drawn from somatic experiencing, EMDR, DBT, and mindfulness. She has experience treating individuals coping with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, adjusting to life transitions, relational issues, and interpersonal conflict. For Shira, compassion and acceptance are the most vital parts of the session.
We tend to be masters at avoiding things that make us uncomfortable. Vulnerability can feel scary and takes courage. By gaining insight on our behaviors, we become free and strong. Giving ourselves the permission to feel can be liberating. I believe you are the expert in your own process and I am honored to be part of creating a more authentic narrative.
