I'm Steven, a clinical social worker providing therapy to a diverse group of adolescents and adults all throughout New York State. Many patients describe my therapeutic style as inviting, comforting, and analytic.

Do you have dreams of a happier and healthier lifestyle? Do you know what you want in life but feel stuck due to past traumatic experiences, stress, anxiety, or self esteem issues?


I work with young women on life issues that have become too heavy to manage on their own.


We'll use therapy to identify past experiences that has impacted your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. You'll replace those negative narratives that leave you feeling stuck with a positive and motivating outlook and work towards a plan that is attainable and unique to your personal goals.


Sis you deserve healing! You matter!

Shelby Sleasman

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • New York


I’m a psychiatric nurse practitioner offering medication management. At this time I offer virtual sessions, with plans to add in‐person appointments in the near future. My approach is shaped by more than a decade of experience working in women's health as a nurse midwife. During that time, I realized how important it is to offer care that truly sees the whole person and honors their full experience. That background taught me how to sit with people in vulnerable moments, listen without rushing, and support them through real-life transitions with steadiness and compassion.
