As a social worker therapist grounded in mindfulness theory, my dream client embodies a spirit of openness and motivation for change. This individual recognizes the challenges that come with personal growth but approaches therapy with a willingness to explore and confront these difficulties. They appreciate the journey of self-discovery and are eager to gain insights that can lead to meaningful transformation in their life. In our sessions, I envision a collaborative environment where they feel safe to express their thoughts and emotions. They understand that progress may not always be linear, yet they remain committed to the process. This client values the therapeutic relationship and seeks guidance to cultivate greater self-awareness, resilience, and mindfulness in their daily life. What I cherish most about this ideal client is their ability to reflect on their experiences and actively engage in their healing journey. They inspire me with their courage to face discomfort and their desire to learn and grow. Together, we would explore various mindfulness practices and therapeutic techniques, fostering a deep connection that empowers them to embrace change with compassion and patience. Ultimately, my dream client is someone who is not only motivated to seek help but also appreciates the support and insight I can offer. In this partnership, we would work hand in hand to navigate the complexities of their experiences, celebrating each step toward a more fulfilled and mindful existence. This collaborative spirit of growth and understanding is what makes the therapeutic journey profoundly rewarding for both of us.

Hey! I'm Shay and I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York , Florida, Virginia, West Virginia and North Carolina and I specialize in anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. I was born and raised in NYC. I serve individuals and couples between the ages of 18-60 who struggle with communication skills, boundary settings, family and relationship challenges among other challenges who are ready and willing to begin their healing journey. I work with people who feel stuck in their own mind—overthinking, second-guessing, or constantly on edge. If you’re dealing with anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or OCD patterns, you might already know how exhausting it can be to try to “logic” your way out of it and still feel out of control. That’s where we take a different approach. I specialize in treating anxiety and OCD using evidence-based approaches like ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention), helping you gradually face fears in a way that actually reduces their power over time. I also work with high-functioning professionals and military members who are used to pushing through—but are now feeling burnt out, overwhelmed, or disconnected. My style is direct, supportive, and real. I’m not the kind of therapist who just nods—I’ll help you understand what’s happening and give you tools that actually make a difference. If you’re ready to feel more in control and less stuck, we can start there.

I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavioral therapy, which will help you learn the tools to challenge patterns of thinking that leave you feeling stuck. By learning these skills, you will be more equipped to manage difficult relationships and tackle stressful life events. By shifting to an internal locus of control, you will finally begin to feel a sense of autonomy over your life.

I received my Masters in Social Work from Adelphi University and have been in practice for 8 years. I guide clients through life transitions and help them to grow and heal into the best versions of themselves. I believe that therapy can provide the guidance necessary to work through transitions and ultimately, reach your utmost potential. I work collaboratively with clients and utilize a client-centered, strengths-based approach to help them feel empowered to reach their personal goals. My goal as a therapist is to create a safe and welcoming environment, where clients are supported and guided through this process.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of New York and Indiana. I have a Masters degree in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University-Los Angeles. Previously, I had a 30 year career in the Film & Television industry. My passions were, the Film business & Psychology. I said to myself, the day I become disinterested in the Film business, I'll go to graduate school, get my degree in psychology and become a psychotherapist. That day came and here I am. I have been practicing since 2009.
