More about Shana

  • Female
  • LCSW-R, LCSW

As a licensed therapist in New Jersey with over two decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through life's complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, stress, family conflicts, and personal growth.

I offer compassionate, personalized support for women dealing with diverse issues including self-esteem, body image, workplace dynamics, relationship transitions, and caregiver stress. My approach honors each person's unique journey, whether they're confronting grief, managing family dynamics, or working through significant life transitions.

My expertise spans a wide range of sensitive areas, from supporting individuals facing serious health challenges like cancer to addressing complex emotional experiences such as isolation, abandonment, and interpersonal communication difficulties. I'm committed to creating a supportive, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their emotions, develop resilience, and cultivate self-understanding.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
