Rebecca Shaw is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychodynamic Psychotherapist, and a Maternal Wellness and Menopause specialist serving clients in NYC and Westchester. With over 20 years of experience in private practice, she works with people of diverse backgrounds to alleviate emotional conflicts in individuals across the lifecycle who suffer from depression, anxiety, compulsive disorders, substance dependence histories, and trauma.
Along with her general practice, Rebecca cultivated a specialty in maternal wellness including menopause because she recognized an overwhelming need for support and education in these often neglected and minimized areas. Rebecca supports and counsels women on their journey through infertility and miscarriage, pregnancy, preparing for labor and delivery, and the transition into parenthood. Once women advance past their childbearing years, they are often not prepared for the complex emotional and physical transition that perimenopause and menopause can bring.
Rebecca works with her clients at their pace to uncover the conflicts and interpersonal/relational challenges that prevent them from achieving greater self-fulfillment. They will develop deeper insight and effective coping strategies to form healthier attachments, more satisfying relationships, and an ability to achieve personal and professional goals.
