Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Newtown, PA

Seeking help takes courage. I meet you where you are. I’m good at listening and working to understand you, your situation, and what you want from therapy. You are the expert on you. I’ll work with you to clarify your goals and develop a plan to help you navigate life’s challenges and move toward meaningful change. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing depression, anxiety, stress, and life transitions. I take a culturally competent, client-centered approach that emphasizes collaboration, respect, and practical skill-building. Together, we’ll focus on strategies that support you in meeting your objectives for therapy.

Finding the right therapist is about finding a balance between someone who truly "gets" it and someone who can help you map out the way forward. With over a decade of experience navigating the complexities of the school system—from the classroom to the counseling office and special education therapy—I’ve dedicated my career to being both a safe harbor and a catalyst for growth. My approach is rooted in deep empathy, but I am also firmly goal-oriented. Whether we are navigating a specific diagnosis or a difficult life transition, I believe that therapy should provide you with both a sense of peace and a clear sense of direction.

Areas of Expertise & Passion

Children & Adolescents: I spent ten years working with students facing a wide range of challenges, including autism, anxiety, oppositional defiance disorder (ODD), and emotional disturbances. I understand the unique pressures of the school environment and am passionate about helping kids find their footing and flourish.

Young Adults: The transition into adulthood can feel like navigating without a map. I help young adults build the confidence they need to define their own version of success and tackle the "what comes next" with resilience.

I provide a supportive space for postpartum moms and those juggling the relentless demands of family life to find balance, reclaim their identity, and prioritize their mental well-being.

Welcome! I’m Shey, an IFS-informed therapist who wishes to help you navigate the journey from unhealed trauma to meaningful personal growth. We don’t have to wait for a crisis to put on our own “oxygen masks.” I’ve learned the hard way how essential it is to care for ourselves first—nurturing our well-being so we can show up fully in our lives.

After 20 years of experience in this field, I utterly believe the mind is a gift, and cultivating it becomes the ultimate task of our lives. Being happy seems to be harder these days and getting to know oneself is not an easy job. Ultimate observation and further inquiry into our minds is the best practice to become closer to who we truly are.
