Hi there, I'm Shanese!

I specialize in mood disorders, helping clients manage depression, anxiety, and emotional dysregulation using CBT, DBT, and CPT. My approach is supportive, practical, and focused on restoring balance and improving daily functioning.

My focus

I work best with adolescents, young adults, and individuals navigating mood disorders, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm. You may feel stuck, overthink often, or struggle to maintain balance—and you’re ready for change, even if you’re unsure where to begin. I help you build clarity, regulate emotions, and develop practical tools to manage

My approach

My approach is collaborative, structured, and tailored to you. We identify your goals, then use CBT, DBT, and CPT to build practical skills for managing emotions, shifting unhelpful thoughts, and improving daily functioning. Sessions are supportive yet goal-oriented, with a focus on real-life application so you can feel more confident in control.
