Hi, I’m Shelby, an LCSW with 12+ years of experience helping women stop overthinking, trust their intuition, and create healthy, secure relationships. I help high-achieving, self-aware women who feel stuck in anxiety, trauma, or repeating relationship patterns.
You want to stop overthinking, move past painful memories, and finally trust yourself. My clients seek clarity, calm, and confidence in life and relationships... and the tools to make real, lasting change.
Welcome. I'm a licensed psychotherapist dedicated to supporting people who are going through a tough life transition, whether it’s a diagnosis, relationship loss, other loss, or it’s you who have changed. You may be stressed, burnt out, depressed, anxious, and/or traumatized by what you are going through and carrying. You don’t have to do this alone. You can find your spark again. I have specialized training in somatic psychotherapy and evidence-based mindfulness therapies. As a person living with T1D, I love working with others in the diabetes community, and I understand the mental load and energy it takes, every single day.
Hello, my name is James. I’m a California-based Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 12 years of experience providing psychotherapy to youth, adults, and families, to help them feel empowered, engaged, and most of all, accepted in this world.
I'm Sinat Aleje, a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with over ten years of experience in the mental health field. I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals across a variety of clinical settings, which has deepened my understanding of the emotional, psychological, and social challenges people face. I specialize in treating adults and adolescents with anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, OCD, bipolar disorder, and schizoaffective disorder.
Clients often tell me they feel truly seen and heard during our sessions. I strive to create a safe and supportive space where healing can begin, and where clients are empowered to take an active role in their care. I hold a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) and am committed to providing high-quality, evidence-based care that evolves with your journey.
If you're looking for a thoughtful, collaborative partner in your mental health care, I’d be honored to work with you.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Los Gatos
Searching for therapists in Los Gatos starts with finding someone whose background fits what you want help with. Therapists may focus on concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or work stress. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match your needs. Bios can help you understand whether a therapist uses methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or other approaches that may align with what you are looking for.
Los Gatos is a smaller market, so nearby in-person openings may be more limited than in larger cities. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still letting you see a therapist licensed in California. Consider practical details like appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can also help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and what a first session may look like.
Therapy in Los Gatos can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway helps you search for therapists who take insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose from therapists who are accepting new patients. You can browse profiles, compare fit, and book directly when you are ready.
