Great to meet you!

Hi there! I’m Dr. Sheva, a licensed clinical psychologist who helps high-achieving women create healthier, more fulfilling relationships. Whether you’re navigating dating, a breakup, or uncertainty in your current relationship, together, we'll focus on gaining clarity on your patterns, strengthening your self-trust and confidence, and improving communication. My goal is to help you build relationships that feel aligned, secure, and deeply fulfilling—while also creating a life that feels meaningful to you.

My approach to therapy

My approach combines insight with action, grounded in warmth and safety. I help you understand the patterns shaping your relationships—especially the impact of familial and cultural influences—while building the skills needed for lasting change. I draw from evidence-based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic, and self-compassion work to support your growth.

What you can expect from me

In our initial sessions, we’ll focus on understanding what’s bringing you to therapy and what you want to work toward. Together, we’ll create goals that support you in building the life and relationships you truly want.
