I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with more than 23 years of experience helping individuals, children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges. I specialize in trauma treatment, with advanced training in working with survivors of sexual abuse, human sexuality concerns, LGBTQ+ individuals, and youth who have engaged in problematic sexual behaviors. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADHD, grief and loss, relationship challenges, self-esteem concerns, identity exploration, and life transitions. I have extensive experience supporting members of the LGBTQ+ community, including concerns related to identity development, coming out, family relationships, minority stress, and navigating affirming relationships. I also have significant experience supporting women through postpartum depression, perinatal mental health concerns, pregnancy loss, and other major life transitions. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to each client’s unique needs. I draw from evidence-based practices including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), psychodynamic therapy, play therapy, and art therapy. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and affirming environment where clients can heal, build resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change. I am certified in TF-CBT, Seeking Safety, and CANS, Play, and have additional training in trauma-informed care and evidence-based trauma treatment. Whether you’re working through trauma, navigating a major life transition, struggling with anxiety or depression, exploring identity concerns, or seeking a deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships, I am committed to helping you feel supported, empowered, and capable of creating meaningful change. Services are available in both English and Spanish.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session, we will complete the assessment, which consists of questions about areas of difficulty, symptom history, and symptom intensity. We start building rapport and see if we are a good match therapeutically, go over scheduling ongoing sessions, and determine treatment goals based on current symptoms and diagnosis.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I bring over 20 years of clinical experience, a trauma-informed perspective, and a compassionate, non-judgmental approach to every session. My goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and safe to explore even the most difficult experiences. I balance empathy with honest feedback, helping clients gain insight while also developing practical skills they can use in everyday life. I believe therapy should be collaborative, and I tailor treatment to each person's unique needs, drawing from evidence-based approaches as well as creativity when it supports healing. Above all, I strive to help clients feel empowered, hopeful, and capable of creating meaningful change.

Being my first therapy session ever, Shasha made me feel comfortable right off the bat. Sasha created a safe, non-judgmental space for me to share what I wanted to share.
