Shelby Semino, Ph.D.

New York licensed psychologist with over 20 years of clinical experience. Over the years I have worked with a wide range of clients (older teens & parents, young adults, adults, and couples) looking to work through a diversity of issues in a safe, empowering, and non-judgmental space.

Welcome! Shout out to you for taking this important step toward investing in your mental wellness. Nowadays, there's no shortage of factors that contribute to the stress and angst we carry around with us everyday. If you are here because you feel burdened by issues of self-doubt, past trauma, difficult relationships, challenges at work or school, etc., know that you are in the right place. As a licensed psychologist with over 20 years of clinical experience, I create a warm, judgment-free space where you can safely explore what's weighing on you and find new strategies for managing life's challenges.
Meeting each client where they're at (emotionally), I bring extensive experience and an integrative approach to therapy, tailoring treatment to each client’s needs. I draw from evidence-based modalities (DBT, CBT, & Motivational Interviewing) to help clients feel their feelings, build resilience, and be equipped to manage whatever challenges they face.
I work with adults, young adults, older teens, & parents. My approach is collaborative and encouraging – you're the expert in your life, and I'm here to help you discover your strengths, challenge old patterns, and build the tools you need to thrive. Together, we'll work on practical strategies that fit your life while creating lasting positive change.
