Shelby Federman, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)

Are anxious thoughts, emotional overwhelm, or big life changes making it hard to feel like
yourself? Are you carrying stories that still influence your daily life, or are you struggling to find
a pace of healing that feels manageable? You don’t have to carry it alone.

As your therapist, I offer a calm, compassionate space where we can slow down and explore
what’s weighing on you. I take the time to understand who you are and strive to foster an
environment where you feel seen and heard. My goal is to help you move from feeling
overwhelmed and stuck to feeling more grounded and confident in navigating life’s stressors.

Together, we can work toward reshaping a life that feels good and true for you. My approach
integrates a range of evidence-based modalities that best reflect your personal needs, goals,
and strengths.

I understand how difficult it can be to reach out for help. You don’t need to have all the
answers. We can figure things out and move at your own pace. I invite you to reach out and
schedule a free 20-minute phone consultation to see how I can support you!
