Professional statement

Shelby is a Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT) who supports adolescents, young adults, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, self-esteem challenges, relationship stress, and the pressures of day-to-day life. With a Master’s in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University and a background in early childhood education, she brings a grounded, developmentally informed perspective to her work.

Her integrative approach blends CBT, psychodynamic therapy, family-systems work, and attachment-based therapy. Shelby strives to create a space where clients feel genuinely understood—whether they’re managing school or work stress, struggling with confidence or self-worth, navigating conflict at home or with parents, or feeling overwhelmed by comparison and expectations. She values authenticity, collaboration, and a real therapeutic connection, and is committed to helping clients build emotional resilience, confidence, and a deeper sense of self.

Shelby works exclusively online through remote sessions, offering convenient and accessible support across California. She brings a warm, engaged presence to virtual therapy, helping clients connect and grow from the comfort of their own space.
