Child and Family Care
Dr. Shea is a licensed clinical psychologist who works with children (ages 10 and up), adolescents, adults, and families. She provides compassionate, evidence-based therapy designed to help clients build insight, strengthen coping skills, and foster meaningful change.
Dr. Shea specializes in supporting children and teens with anxiety, ADHD, and autism spectrum conditions. She focuses on helping young people better understand themselves, manage emotional challenges, and build confidence and connection in their relationships. Family collaboration is an essential part of her work—Dr. Shea partners with parents and caregivers to improve communication, strengthen relationships, and create supportive environments where children can thrive.
My goal is to help you or your child develop resilience, self-acceptance, and the tools needed to thrive. Together, we’ll create meaningful change and a stronger sense of well-being.
LGBTQIA+ Issues
Dr. Shea is dedicated to providing affirming, compassionate care for LGBTQIA+ individuals of all ages. She offers a safe and supportive space for clients to explore identity, relationships, mental health, and life transitions. She understands that each person’s experience is unique and tailors therapy to meet their individual needs and goals.
Her approach is collaborative and grounded in authenticity, empowerment, and respect. Whether supporting teens navigating coming out, adults seeking deeper self-acceptance, or families wanting to better understand and support their loved one, she is committed to helping clients feel seen, valued, and confident in who they are.
With 5+ years of specialized educational and clinical training in LGBTQIA+ issues, including therapeutic and medical intervention journeys.
