My Specialties

  • That quiet voice telling you you’re not good enough can be exhausting. Rebuild your self-esteem from the inside out and start feeling confident, capable, and genuinely worthy of who you are.

  • Do you often wonder, “Are they mad at me?” or struggle to say no? Therapy can guide you in setting boundaries and feeling secure in your own needs and values.

  • Perfection doesn’t have to define your worth. Find freedom in imperfection and reconnect with who you are beyond achievements.

  • If social situations leave you overthinking everything you said (or didn’t say), therapy can help ease fear of judgment and build confidence so you can connect more freely.

  • Catching yourself picking apart your reflection or wishing your body looked different? Learn to release harsh self-criticism and cultivate a compassionate, comfortable relationship with your body.

  • If you’re feeling stuck in cycles of restriction, bingeing, or other dysfunctional eating patterns, therapy can help break the cycle, reduce guilt and shame, and foster a balanced relationship with food.

Hi, I’m Shelby! I’m a licensed mental health therapist in Dallas & Plano, Texas. I specialize in therapy for teen girls and young women. I’m passionate about helping clients build self-esteem, improve confidence, and develop a healthy, compassionate relationship with themselves.

My approach focuses on supporting girls and young women in reconnecting with their sense of worth, setting healthy boundaries, and cultivating confidence beyond achievements or the expectations of others. Together, we work to ease fear of judgment, release guilt or shame, and develop a balanced, compassionate relationship with your thoughts, your body, and your life. My counseling sessions are designed to provide a safe, supportive space where you can explore your emotions, overcome anxiety, and build lasting self-confidence.

Healing isn’t about changing who you are; it’s about uncovering and embracing your strengths, finding freedom from the inner critic, and feeling secure in the person you already are. If you’re looking for therapy for self-esteem, confidence building, or support with anxiety, I’m here to help you navigate your journey toward emotional well-being and personal growth.
