I help my clients to develop new strategies that allow them to cope, heal, and pursue what is important to them. I would describe my therapeutic approach as collaborative, supportive, genuine, and goal-oriented. I believe everyone can benefit from therapy. I believe it is important to learn about the relationships among our emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. With this knowledge we can identify and practice a combination of acceptance and change skills to move forward in a desired direction. I am trained in the delivery of multiple evidence-based therapies, and I use my training to help my clients achieve their goals. Knowledge, science, and ongoing self-reflection guide my therapeutic approach and therapy sessions are tailored to the unique needs of each individual. I am a therapist at Octave, a behavioral health practice creating a new standard for mental health care that’s both high-quality and accessible.

I believe the therapeutic relationship is essential to therapy. Together we will work to accomplish the goals you have for yourself. I believe that your core beliefs about yourself will impact the way you behave and feel; therefore, by considering and examining these beliefs, you can gradually alter them and consequently, alter your behaviors and emotions. I practice Cognitive Behavioral Therapy; however, my roots in client-centered have served me well by giving me the tools needed to build the therapeutic relationship. I am also skilled in Motivational Interviewing. My belief is that we can all use someone to support us in processing our thoughts and feelings. It can be difficult finding time, money and energy to find the right therapist. I would love to be of service to you on your journey. I'm a therapist with Octave and Evernorth Behavioral Care Group.

I became a therapist due to my own personal experiences. Initially, it was very difficult for me to seek mental health support, but once I did, I found confidence and healing through therapy. It was that positive experience that led me to pursue a career in this field. Through my experiences, I have gained skills to support my clients by building strong relationships, providing empathy and support, and most importantly creating a safe space. I understand that everyone's journey is different and unique and therefore I use an open-minded approach to enable growth and mental well-being. To do this, I utilize evidence-based practices and theories such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, as well as Solutions Focused and Psychodynamic modalities to support my clients.

I have years of experience working with adults who struggle with depression, substance abuse issues, dual diagnosis, anxiety, trauma, relational problems and life transition issues. In regards to my style, obtaining a good rapport is key. I seek to meet my clients where they're at, yet challenge them to reach their own treatment goals. I assign therapy homework such as listening to podcast, journaling, self care, practicing skills learned in session in order to help them on their journey.

Welcome! Im Shayda- Healing from trauma isn't something we're meant to do alone. When we safely reconnect with our nervous system with the support of an attuned therapist, therapy can be deeply powerful. I use trauma therapies like EMDR, Brainspotting, and Somatic Experiencing to help you process pain and find lasting relief. I work with adults healing from PTSD, C-PTSD, childhood trauma, and attachment wounds. I also support survivors of sexual assault, toxic relationships, and those facing depression, anxiety, panic, or suicidal thoughts. Through this work, we can reprocess the past and create lasting healing and wholeness in your life. As a feminist, trauma-informed therapist, I recognize how systems of oppression, inequality, and societal expectations shape our experiences and impact our well-being. I offer culturally sensitive care that honors your lived experience - creating a space where you feel truly seen, valued, and understood. My priority is building safety and trust. I take the time to get to know you, bringing presence, compassion, attunement, and authenticity to our work. Together, we can take meaningful steps toward creating the life you envision and deserve. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation - I'd love to connect!
I work with diverse students who are struggling with the impact of an overwhelming life event or transition. I specialize in sexual trauma and PTSD, but have experience working with students around relationship issues, emotion regulation, anxiety and/or depressed mood, body image concerns, self-esteem, and sexual orientation and gender identity.
Many of the students I work best with are high-achieving, thoughtful, and often harder on themselves than anyone else could be. They may look like they have it all together on the outside, but inside, they feel overwhelmed, anxious, or unsure of who they really are. Some are navigating perfectionism, burnout, or relationship stress. Others are adjusting to big life changes like leaving home, figuring out their identity, or questioning their future. If you're someone who’s used to pushing through and holding it all in, therapy can be a space to slow down, be honest, and feel more like yourself again. My goal is to help you build clarity, balance, and self-trust so you can feel grounded even when life is uncertain.
Thank you for taking the time to consider me in choosing a support person for yourself or family member. I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist dedicated to providing effective, specialized psychological services for Adolescents and Adults. I facilitate Psychological Evaluations/Testing, Psychotherapy, and Mental Health/Performance Coaching. I take an Individualized, Empowerment and Wellness-based approach whereby I incorporate brief, solutions focused interventions to address the overall psychological needs of a person or family to help reduce suffering and bring about optimal Well-being and long-term Recovery.
Feeling anxious, stuck, or burned out? I help college students move through anxiety, eating struggles, body image stress, and relationship ups and downs. Therapy with me is about more than just “coping” — we get to the root so you can feel lighter, trust yourself more, and actually enjoy life again. I’ve worked with clients all over the world, using approaches that help you truly heal and create lasting change. My goal is to help you feel more capable of handling life’s challenges while also making space for the positive, nourishing parts of your life.
For nearly two decades, I have worked with people during the moments that interrupt the life they expected and ask them to reconsider who they are. I am especially drawn to working with young women and emerging adults navigating anxiety, self-worth, relationships, identity development, grief, and the transition into adulthood. These years often carry an unusual amount of pressure: to choose the right future, become financially independent, maintain relationships, look confident, and appear certain while privately having very little room to be unsure. Many of my clients are capable, thoughtful, and highly motivated. They may perform well academically or professionally, remain dependable within their families, and appear composed to the people around them. Beneath that competence, however, there may be relentless self-criticism, perfectionism, relationship anxiety, difficulty making decisions, or the feeling that everyone else received instructions for adulthood that they somehow missed. Therapy creates an opportunity to understand the structure beneath that distress. We may explore when achievement became connected to worth, why disappointing someone feels more dangerous than disappointing yourself, or how belonging became dependent upon being attractive, agreeable, useful, or easy to love. We look at the expectations you inherited, the identities you have performed, and the strategies that helped you remain safe or accepted but now make it difficult to know what you actually want. My style is warm, direct, and actively engaged. I am not a therapist who remains silent while you carry the entire conversation, nor will I offer reassurance that sounds comforting but leaves the underlying problem untouched. I listen carefully, ask intentional questions, identify patterns, and offer perspective or challenge when it can help the work become more honest. Difficult conversations are approached with care, but they are not avoided. Our work holds both depth and practical application. We will address what is happening now while also examining the experiences, relationships, and beliefs that continue to shape it. Insight can help you understand why a pattern exists, while practical tools help you respond differently when that pattern appears in daily life. Both matter. Understanding without action can leave someone informed but unchanged, while skills without deeper understanding may only improve the surface. You do not need to arrive knowing exactly what is wrong or what therapy should look like. You may begin with anxiety that will not settle, a relationship that has altered your trust in yourself, a transition that has left you without a familiar identity, or the sense that the life you are building does not fully belong to you. We begin with what is present and allow the work to become more precise over time. The goal is not to turn you into someone more impressive, productive, or acceptable. It is to help you separate who you are from who you learned to become in order to feel safe, successful, loved, or included. From there, you can make decisions with greater clarity, build relationships without repeatedly abandoning yourself, and create a life that feels genuinely authored rather than merely performed.
Licensed in CA, NC, FL and PA—offering seamless virtual care for students on campus and those traveling home for breaks. I am a Licensed Psychologist. I attended U of Miami, FL for my B.S, M.S., and Ph.D. As part of my graduate program, I completed courses and did research at Duke, U of Penn, Jefferson University, and Rutgers. I completed a specialized post-graduate Harvard program to understand and overcome internal barriers to achieve personal growth. Later in life, I became a UCLA Alum by obtaining my Certificate in Human Resource Management and was selected as the valedictorian for my speciality. This added a capability to enhance my work as a Strategic Human Resource Executive for two large Aerospace companies based in Torrance, CA. I live in beautiful Napa, CA. My practice is virtual using a secured platform. I see adults 18+ yo for individual therapy. For the past 30 plus years, I helped people just like you find ways to get on track with their lives. My goal for you is to understand yourself and be able to take steps to feel the way you want to feel. During our initial sessions, I ask that you share what you feel I need to know about your situation and circumstance, your feelings, about who you are and what you hope to gain through therapy. I take time to get to know you. We will explore your thoughts, feelings, reactions that arise in therapy as these are just as important as what happens outside of therapy. You will design your own unique tools and techniques to use throughout your life in various situations that give you relief and help during difficult times. Compassionate and patient, encouraging you to overcome hurdles you can control and let go of ones you can’t. We will move you towards your best self by holding you accountable for your own growth. We work collaboratively; starting with what’s happening now, breaking things down into manageable areas to work on. We explore ways to increase your awareness and your actions from how you view things to your actual behaviors. I keep up with the latest science on evidenced based approaches, and leverage our current understanding of our whole body. You'll gain resilience to handle life’s challenges. I believe that we are creative, resourceful & whole... and sometimes, we just need a helping hand. We have genetics and learned behaviors that make us who we are. Think about it, if we can learn what we have learned to bring us to where we are today, without even trying, imagine what we can do if we put just a little bit of effort and energy into learning something different that would work better for us today. If we take care of our whole body, eat right, stay active, stimulate our brains, give to and receive from others then we do better dealing with stress and challenges. I do practice the things I talk about. It’s important that I take care of myself. And we’re not prefect so sometimes we stop our best practices and then we realize we need to pick them up again because we notice the negative impact. That’s me too. I love that we have similarities and differences as humans, that’s what makes us so wondrous! If you want to learn more about how I can help, send me a message. Please be sure to share your personal email and your personal cell phone so I can reach you.

Are you struggling with anxiety, stress, or depression? Do these overwhelming emotions seem to be holding you back from living your life to the fullest? If you've tried therapy before without getting the results you were hoping for, I'm here to offer a new path forward. I specialize in a highly effective form of therapy called TEAM-CBT, rooted in evidence-based treatment methods. My goal is to empower you to overcome anxiety, depression, tackle procrastination and improve your relationships.
Picture this: a space where your thoughts and emotions are not just heard, but truly understood; where negative patterns unravel, where there is change and growth in your life, and where therapy is enjoyable and fun. I provide a safe, judgement-free, and easy going environment where you can feel free to be yourself. In treatment, we will work together to collaboratively set goals for change, learn how your self-talk impacts your feelings and behaviors, and learn practical skills to create change. I draw on a model of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), specifically TEAM-CBT. The tools I offer are concrete, step-by-step methods that help you challenge unhelpful thoughts, shift painful emotions, improve relationships, and build new habits. Together, we’ll practice strategies you can use both in and outside of sessions, so progress continues between appointments and beyond. I also have extensive experience working with the ASD population and the families and caregivers, recognizing how important it is to support the entire system, not just the individual. My background in conducting comprehensive assessments allows me to integrate different approaches and tailor therapy to your unique needs. My personal history in athletics has shaped who I am and given me firsthand insight into the pressures athletes face. I bring that perspective into my work by applying cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) strategies that help athletes build resilience, manage stress, and improve performance. Additionally, I have experience working with transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) as well as with clients struggling with depression and anxiety. I’ve seen how these treatments, combined with the right therapeutic support, can lead to meaningful progress and long-lasting change. My goal is for you to feel more empowered with your life. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, life transition, or other concerns, I am here to support you on your new era of personal transformation. Interested in seeing if were a good match?
