Great to meet you!

I'm glad you're here. Reaching out for support is a powerful first step, and you don't have to do this alone.

Hi, I'm Shimyne Homidas, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and the heart behind: In Herr Space. Over the years, I've had the privilege of working with children, teens, adults, and families as they move through major life transitions, whether it's emotional healing, relationship shifts, identity work, or rebuilding after crisis. As a therapist, I strive to advocate, educate, guide, and empower. My approach is rooted in compassion and respect, with a focus on helping each client build insight, strengthen coping skills, and reconnect with their inner resilience.

My approach to therapy

My approach is compassionate, nonjudgmental, and practical. I combine tools from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Strengths-Based Therapy to help you build coping skills, understand your emotions, and feel more in control of your life.

What you can expect from me

I specialize in working with teens who are navigating self-harm, intense emotions, and mental health challenges such as borderline personality disorder, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. I also support adults, especially single parents, who are going through or healing from divorce, helping them find stability, confidence, and strength in their own space.

In Herr Space is just that: a space for individuals to feel seen, heard, supported, and not alone.
