Dr. Claudia Shields

I am psychologist who has earned the trust of clients, who have given me the opportunity to support them through life-changing and life-saving transformations. This work is sacred to me and so is every life I touch.

I am a seasoned professional with nearly 30 years of experience in clinical psychology. I hold a master's and a doctorate degree in multicultural clinical psychology. I completed my degrees and clinical training at institutions accredited by the American Psychological Association.

Together we will create a safe and warm healing relationship, where you feel heard, seen, and deeply known, so that you can heal and grow.

I will begin by listening deeply to you, constantly checking in to make sure that I am "getting" you fully and accurately. Once I have done so, I can then began to offer you guidance, resources, exercises and referrals to other professionals if necessary.

My clients report feeling better almost immediately. Most experience a sense of clarity, and relief from anxiety and depression. Those grieving the loss of a loved one or relationship gain clarity, comfort and skills that help them cope. Those experiencing discrimination feel supported and empowered, in the face of these injustices. Clients experience improved self-esteem, healthier habits of mind and body, and many are able to meet personal, career and relationship goals that have eluded them.
