Rona Shepherd, LCSW
My expertise is in helping people who suffer from anxiety, depression, loneliness and obsessive compulsive disorders. I focus on not only on your current challenges, but themes and patterns that have impacted you throughout your life. My approach is active, collaborative, and relational. I am trained in working with people who have difficulties in either inter-personal or work related relationships. My practice consists of working with individual adults, couples and families in both long and short term therapy as well as with people who identify as LGBT. I have a multi-faceted approach to helping people achieve their life goals.
I have been trained and certified as a psychoanalyst which informs m work; however I also integrate my practice using other therapies such as cognitive, behavioral (CBT), (DBT), and problem solving. I have additional training working with addictive disorders whether related to eating disorders or substance abuse.
Every individual or couple is unique and our work together will be reflective of this. I am trained and certified as a psychoanalyst, couples therapist, and divorce mediator. While divorce mediation differs from therapy, my understanding of the myriad of feeling leading to the decision to divorce as well as its impact can help facilitate the process.

I’ve been seeing Rona for just about 10 years now, and during that time she has substantially bettered my quality of life. Rona is patient, caring, incredibly smart, candid, and a very perceptive listener. She’s the total package, everything you want in a therapist. The thing I most like about Rona is that she has a gift for knowing what you need, even if you don’t know yourself, and she knows how to get you there - be it through coaching, gentle reinforcement, or some good old tough love. I’ve referred several of my friends to Rona already, and I strongly recommend her here as well.

Rona is exceptionally compassionate, kind, supportive, and empathetic. She has helped me effectively navigate many areas of my life and interpersonal relationships, as well as overcoming grief and other traumas. I have learned so much from her, including an array of tools I have at the ready to evaluate what I’m experiencing so that I can successfully handle life’s ups and downs. I feel very fortunate to have such a special person in my corner.

Working with Rona has been one of the most rewarding and life changing decisions I have ever made. She is caring, kind, and compassionate and my time with her has enabled me to understand and work though childhood trauma, fears, and anxieties that were affecting me as an adult. I am now more confident and successful and my relationships with my family have improved as a result of our work together. My only regret is that I didn’t find her sooner!

Rona is a terrific therapist! A few years ago, I experienced an extreme trauma. She has brought me through it extraordinarily well - I simply wouldn't be as recovered and able to face the world as I am today without her guidance and support. Many therapists advocate for specific methods of recovery, none of which I particularly wanted to go through. Rona and I dealt with the problem as one would any other issue - through good old fashioned face to face therapy meetings, and it worked! From that extreme issue to the day to day frustrations of life to problems in-between, Rona has been a wonderful person to turn to for sound and strong advice. She is really an excellent therapist and there's absolutely no one I'd rather see. I'm so glad that I was introduced to Rona and I can't recommend her enough!

Rona is kind, patient, punctual and overall the best mental health professional I have ever worked with. I have recommended her to my friends as well and they all love her too. I’m so grateful to have her as my therapist!

I've been seeing Rhona for 10 years now. She has helped me not only survive but also to thrive through a time of enormous personal upheaval and loss. She continues to guide me through childhood and adult trauma in practical and effective ways while building a strong therapeutic bond. Through our relationship, I am developing a deeper understanding and appreciation of myself, a greater ability to function in the world, and to be more authentic and loving in my relationships.
MMVerified patient
Rona is amazing. I’ve been seeing her for 4 years now after a recommendation from a friend and honestly can’t imagine seeing anyone else. Her office is clean, warm and inviting, and I NEVER have to wait. She sees me immediately at our scheduled time and I can rely on our appointments. There are no subjects I feel we can’t discuss and work through and I never feel judged or scolded. She is able to navigate even the most intense experiences with you while creating a safe environment in which you can explore your thoughts and feelings. She’s been there for me for every major moment of my post-grad life and I have her to thank for keeping me sane in this very insane city. Would recommend to my closest friends and family. Thank you Rona!

Rona is a wonderful therapist who has helped me get through some major anxiety producing life events. It’s good to have someone neutral to talk to in bad (and good) times.
