Hello! I graduated with my Master's of Social Work from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2021. I specialize in working with adults that have experienced trauma throughout their lives. I am trained in providing Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) in both virtual and in-person settings!
I am excited to provide compassionate & competent care for transgender, non-binary, and gender expansive adults, and other LGBTQIA+ identities. In addition, I enthusiastically affirm asexuality and aromaticism, intersex folks, and all who experience marginalization, erasure, and/or invisibility within the broader LGBTQIA+ community. Anyone “questioning” is welcome!
I believe that two main goals of therapy are to heal and to become stronger. I began my professional journey serving overseas, where I provided help to families and individuals going through crisis and transition. I hold a MA in Clinical Mental Health from Regent University, a Certificate in Family and Sexuality from Riga Gestalt Institute, and am currently serving as Faculty in Clinical Psychology & Psychotherapy for Children & Adolescents for Ukraine Institute for Post-Graduate Education.
I obtained my MSW at Hunter College in NY. I am licensed in both New York and DC. My clinical training consists of extensive experience with children, teens, families and young adults in the Greater New York City area. I treat clients experiencing anxiety, depression, family conflict, interpersonal problems and behavioral problems.
I am a Board-Certified Psychiatrist and I have been treating patients across the lifespan for over 15 years. Once my caseload became full in 2022, I founded a small practice (Tandem Telehealth) where I now oversee a handful of talented psychiatric nurse practitioners and talk therapists. The team approach allows us to provide faster access to care for new patients and a higher level of support than you would likely receive from individuals working independently.

I’m Dr. Sharline Mashack, a board-certified Psychiatric/Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, and I specialize in treating patients with conditions ranging from ADHD to schizophrenia. I use a holistic approach combined with evidence-based practices to develop treatment plans, prescribe medications, and provide psychotherapy.
As a military spouse, I’ve had the opportunity to work in several areas of the healthcare system, learning from experienced leaders along the way. I earned both my Master’s and Doctorate in Nursing.
I work with adults experiencing ADHD, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions and grief. Many of my clients feel stuck or unsure how to move forward, whether that involves improving focus and follow-through, coping with loss, or navigating changes in mood and life circumstances.
You may be overwhelmed, struggling to stay focused, or going through a difficult change in your life that makes you feel stressed out.
With over 30 years of experience in healthcare as both a Licensed Professional Counselor and Registered Nurse, I bring a practical understanding of how physical, emotional, and mental health are connected, especially for adults managing ADHD, focus challenges, and overwhelm.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Harrisonburg, VA
Searching for therapists in Harrisonburg starts with identifying the kind of support that fits what you want to address. People look for therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, and work stress. As you compare Harrisonburg therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs. A therapist’s bio can help you understand their approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed therapy, or support for couples and families.
In a smaller city like Harrisonburg, local appointment options may be more limited than in larger Virginia markets. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Virginia. If you prefer in-person care, consider office location, commute time, and appointment availability. If virtual care fits your schedule better, look for therapists with evening, weekend, or flexible openings. Reading profiles before booking can also show how a therapist describes their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Harrisonburg can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review detailed bios, see availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
