Hi! My name is Shira and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in both Florida and New York. I am an integrative, action-oriented therapist dedicated to helping individuals and couples move from feeling stuck and disconnected to living with deep purpose, clarity, and security. I believe true healing requires looking at the whole person. Because of this, my work bridges the gap between the mind and the body. Clients appreciate that I bring a unique balance of profound warmth, practical directness, and evidence-based science to every session.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida. My work is grounded in evidence-based therapies that I tailor to each person’s needs. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Person-Centered Therapy, Family Systems, and Solution-Focused Therapy — all designed to help you understand what’s keeping you stuck, build effective coping skills, and create meaningful change.

I specialize in supporting adults navigating trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. My ideal clients often come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck in painful patterns, disconnected from themselves, or weighed down by past experiences that continue to shape their emotions, relationships, and daily lives. Together, we create space to better understand those experiences and begin building a path toward healing and growth.
