Getting to know Chase Anderson-Shaw
Hi! I'm Chase, an Associate Marriage & Family Therapist who works with adults and couples navigating relationships, identity, emotional well-being, depression, mood-related concerns, and major life transitions. I believe therapy should help you not only move through difficult periods, but also better understand yourself, recognize your strengths, and create meaningful change.
I earned my master's degree in Clinical Psychology and Marriage & Family Therapy from Pepperdine University. Before becoming a therapist, I spent more than a decade working in theater as an actor, director, improviser, and theater manager—a background that taught me a lot about curiosity, collaboration, empathy, and being present with others.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I believe you are the expert on your own life. My role is to work alongside you with curiosity, compassion, and respect rather than telling you who you should be or how you should live.
My approach is client-centered and integrates emotionally focused, systems-based, CBT, IFS, narrative, and strength-based techniques depending on what fits your needs. I also take a holistic, gender-affirming approach and welcome clients exploring identity, gender, relationships, and the ways larger social systems can influence how we understand ourselves and connect with others.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Our first sessions are an opportunity to get to know each other and understand what brings you to therapy, what you've been experiencing, and what you'd like to be different. We'll explore your history, relationships, current challenges, and goals while beginning to identify patterns that may be affecting how you feel or function.
From there, we'll work together to determine what approaches are most helpful. Depending on your needs, therapy may include exploring relationship patterns, building emotional awareness, challenging unhelpful thoughts, developing greater self-understanding, or identifying strengths and new ways of responding to life's challenges.

More information on payments and coverage
After scheduling your appointment, you will receive an email from Stella Mental Health (formerly BeSpoke Treatment) containing your intake paperwork. Please allow about 30 minutes to complete this form. Your responses will help your provider prepare for your upcoming appointment. All patients are required to complete the intake form 24 business hours before their appointment.
You will receive a phone call from a dedicated Care Advocate who can answer any questions you may have. Please be prepared to provide a credit card to keep on file for co-pays or cancellation fees. Late cancellations and no-shows will be charged the full initial appointment fee.
During your initial appointment, you’ll spend 60 minutes with your provider collaborating on a treatment plan tailored to your needs. If in-person treatments are recommended—such as TMS, Spravato, SGB, or ketamine therapy—our care team will guide you through the process and ensure you feel supported every step of the way.
