Welcome! You have taken the first step, which is quite often the most difficult; you are exploring therapists and reaching out.

I work with adults looking for relief from anxiety, depression, stress, challenging life transitions, and problematic use of alcohol and other substances. Perfectionism, damaged self-esteem/self-worth, guilt, and shame are all confounding factors that commonly drive our painful emotions and self-sabotaging behaviors. Our work together can help you discover ways to effectively manage difficult emotions, expand limiting thoughts and beliefs, and find motivation for behavior change, guiding you toward a more satisfying, serene, and fulfilling life.

Do you feel like you're shouting into the wind, but no one is listening? Is your mind racing a million miles an hour all day (and sometimes all night) long? Does your brain feel like it's stuck in an endless loop, thinking the same useless thoughts on repeat? It doesn't have to be this way! Get out of the echo chamber of your own head and find a safe place to clear your mind. Yes, reaching out for help can be scary, and procrastination so easy to justify - but taking that first step starts paying off right away. When you're clear about what you're thinking and feeling - and why - it's much easier to know what to do next.

You are stuck in a dark maze carrying the crushing pressure of the world to succeed on your chest. While everybody is at the finish line of the race, you are handcuffed to the beginning of the line. The isolation and loneliness feel like a void in the pit of your stomach that is never filled. The emotions are like waves in the ocean, when it comes, it drowns you, and when it's quiet, it's boxed up in a container ready to explode. My post-grad includes the New York School for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy with extensive training in AEDP (focus on here-and-now relational and body - somatic) and EMDR for dating and breakups.

My name is Masha Shapiro, and I am a triple-certified trauma therapist and am also EMDR-certified. Trauma comes in all shapes and sizes. Perhaps it was a single moment in childhood when your life changed forever. Or, a collection of events over an extended period of time. It might even be trauma experienced by a parent or relative that was passed down to you. Whatever your trauma origin story, it is time to rewrite the ending. Unlike traditional trauma therapy, the Trauma Fast-Track approach gets transformational results in as little as 3-6 sessions. Please note, I only accept Aetna and United. Otherwise, all sessions are self-pay.

I am a bilingual clinician, with training both in France and the US. I first practiced in Paris as a clinical psychologist, and I now work as a clinical social worker in New York. I work with children, adolescents and adults who suffer from day to day struggles or severe difficulties. I provide a safe space where patients can explore and work through their emotional and social problems, or in the case of children where they can play them out. Although therapy may be difficult at first, I know from experience that it is well worth the effort.
