Hi there! My name is Shira Collings (she/they). I am a feminist, neurodiversity affirming, queer and trans affirming, fat affirming, and disability justice aligned therapist. I am passionate about supporting people in living a life that is aligned with their true values, and healing from both external and internalized oppression that may be impacting their well-being. Some of my areas of specialization include eating disorders and disordered eating, body image, neurodiversity, grief and loss, and trauma. My therapeutic approach is primarily based in person-centered and feminist approaches. This means I strive to create a space in which clients can express their full, authentic selves and share their stories without shame or judgment. I also have training in Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction. Additionally, I regularly incorporate self-compassion, expressive arts, philosophy and pop culture, and self-advocacy skills into my approach. I would be honored to be part of your journey. I look forward to getting to know you and collaborating on the path toward healing and liberation!

Do you find yourself over thinking, feeling on edge, feeling out of control, or thinking that something is wrong with you? Or do you sometimes feel like you are not living life to your full potential and need a guide to empower you towards personal discovery and growth? Well, let me tell you this, you are not alone and change is possible. The information you take in daily, especially through social media, news, reading materials, and the people around you can either nourish you or add to your current discomfort. The good news is that therapy is a tool to guide you through some of life's most difficult challenges and the skills you learn in a safe space with a therapist will help you throughout your life. You are reading this right now, which means you want something different for yourself. I can assure you that therapy is a great start to getting a better understanding of your thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and even your true self. A part of leading a full life is understanding that balance in all aspects of life is necessary for overall well being. I take a holistic mental therapy approach, which views the mind, body, and spirit as interconnected. I utilize an integrative approach that combines therapy methods, such as CBT and DBT, with alternative therapy techniques, such as creating lifestyle changes, cultivating mindfulness, tapping into your creative expression through writing or art, and/or incorporating spiritual practices that are meaningful to you. I obtained a MSW from Columbia University and have worked with ages 8 - 105 years old (although this may shock you!) I have been a compassionate guide for clients who were experiencing anxiety, depression, adjustment disorders, ADHD, OCD, and grief and trauma. I will work with you to create a comprehensive plan so that you can gain the knowledge and skills to reach your desired goals and more. I am proud of your courage to reach out for guidance and support in your journey towards wellbeing. Please feel free to reach out if you would like me to be a guide on this journey with you!

Welcome, I'm Dr. Green. This is a sacred space for women to empower, heal, and rise within individual therapy. As a dedicated Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) since 2004, I've devoted my career to supporting women's wellness.

This is a safe haven for women to share, discover, and thrive – mind, heart, and spirit.
