Hi, I’m Shelby
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in New York City. I specialize in individual psychotherapy. I hold a Master’s degree in Social Work from Fordham University and completed post-graduate training at the Parnell Institute on Attachment Focused EMDR.
Therapy is an intimate relationship and in my practice I aim to create a space that allows you to feel safe, supported and challenged. My approach is interactive and focused on discovering your strengths, in order to help you address your unique life motivators and stressors. My goal is to give you the space to process and grow from your inner conflicts.
I conduct sessions in a nonjudgmental atmosphere to guide you in addressing your past, future, and most importantly, your present.
I have found success by incorporating a number of therapeutic modalities, including Attachment Focused EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Emotions Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.
Outside of my work as a therapist, you can find me playing with my two cats, cooking new recipes, or watching something trashy on Bravo.
