Shelove brings 25 years of experience to her work. She holds an MD and is licensed as an LCSW-C and a LICSW.
How Shelove works
Her approach is warm and compassionate, and she aims to make therapy feel accessible and direct. In sessions she listens for patterns that keep a person stuck. Then she helps people try new ways of responding.
That might mean practicing different communication skills, learning short coping tools for panic and anxiety, or looking at how early relationships shape current reactions. Shelove pays attention to culture and identity when she meets someone. She creates an affirming space where emotions can be named and explored without judgment.
She also works with practical problems like managing stress at home or handling the strain of caregiving. Her style mixes empathy with clear problem-solving. People can expect concrete strategies alongside space to process feelings.
Sessions are offered in English and Haitian Creole and are tailored to each person’s needs and goals.

Online support options
How therapeutic approaches fit into online sessions
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques often focus on changing unhelpful patterns and teaching concrete skills. One common approach emphasizes learning short-term coping tools for anxiety and panic, such as breath work, grounding, and step-by-step exposure to feared situations; these tools help reduce acute symptoms and build confidence. Another approach attends to early attachment and abandonment wounds by exploring relationship patterns and practicing new ways of relating; this helps people understand why they react strongly in close relationships and try different responses.Figuring out which approach will help most is collaborative. The therapist and client review goals, try methods, and adjust over time. That way the plan reflects what actually helps and fits the person's pace and preferences.
Online therapy offers real flexibility. Video calls let people work face to face without traveling. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a lunch break. Live chat or text-based messaging can suit quick check-ins, shorter reflections, or days when typed communication feels easier. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, and daily life.
