Getting to know Masha Shapiro

*Hi, We will be emailing you our intake forms via our system 'Simple Practice'. Please check your email and complete them prior to your appointment. Thank you.* VIRTUAL THERAPY SESSIONS Congratulations on making the decision to reach out to a therapist. My name is Masha Shapiro-Berkovich, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of New York with more than a decade of combined clinical experience. I hold a Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling from Fordham University. I work with adults from all walks of life and am a certified EMDR therapist, as well as a Certified Individual Trauma Specialist (CCTSP-I) and a Certified Complex Trauma Professional (CCTP-II). As such, I work from a relational lens and specialize in autonomic nervous system regulation, somatic experiencing, and brain-spotting approaches. In addition to the treatment of PTSD, my clinical strengths lie in OCD; panic, phobias, and anxiety disorders; perinatal mood disorders; and relationship issues. Together, you and I will explore the innermost layers of any issues you may struggle with and work toward restoring your mind and nervous system responses. I also utilize elements of CBT, EFT, and Baud-Therapy when applicable, which is a rare but leading form of treatment for trauma and a whole host of other anxiety issues. All of my services are offered exclusively online, so you can get the therapy you need, anytime, anywhere! Please do not hesitate to contact me for a free consultation. I look forward to hearing from you and joining you on your path to wellness.

What should a new client know about working with you?

*Hi, We will be emailing you our intake forms via our system 'Simple Practice'. Please check your email and complete them prior to your appointment. Thank you.* I offer a warm, straight-forward, and hands-on approach as your therapist. I work through a somatic lens and focus on the mind-body connection as a whole, via autonomic nervous system regulation. Together, we will explore how your physical body, thoughts, and beliefs work together to shape your personality, and use the concept of neuroplasticity to rewire any maladaptive /outdated patterns that are not working for you. I view being your therapist as a great honor, and thank you for choosing me to join your on your path to healing and wellness.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

** Please verify insurance prior to booking an appointment to make sure deductible is met which cost CAN be higher. Please advise that insurance verification can take up to 48 hours at our office. **

I absolutely love Masha. I have been working with her for years and think that she is not only brilliant but she is also an awesome human being. She is caring compassionate and bright. She has gotten me out of a bad place quickly each and every time. Thank you so much Masha, you are the best!
Found her to be incredibly sharp-she is one of the kindest and most helpful doctors I have ever spoken with. I am so blessed to have found her!
Thank you Masha, I have experienced so much relief from the second we started working together, you changed my life in ways I never knew could even happen for me!!!!
Marsha was straight forward , did listen well , felt a little rushed but seems she has the expertise in her field . It’s only one visit so far , so I may need a little more time to find more about her . I do feel very hopeful !!

Really appreciated my sessions with Masha. She is kind and flexible. She helped me with my ocd issue big time and I have my notes from her as a lifetime lesson to hold on to whenever I am obsessing next time. So grateful to have met her when I needed help the most post quarantine days my ocd spiked and she was there to fix it right away. Thanks again Masha??
So easy to talk to, she changed my perspective on things instantly. Whoever says therapy doesn’t work has never spoken to Masha. Thanks for everything!
This is the most rapid relief I have ever experienced from trauma and I’ve been to so many different therapists throughout the years. Best of the best!
Really knows her stuff, great listener and just caring human being all around. Put it this way I came in a mess and am fully functioning.
Never thought I'd be able to find the help I needed until I spoke to Masha. She's helpful without being pushy, and holds me accountable without being judgemental. She's very accommodating with her schedule and always makes me feel like I'm her number one priority during our sessions. It's been really difficult to find someone to help me through my issues, but she always puts things in a different perspective that makes me want to put the work in for myself. Can't recommend highly enough.
Absolutely love Masha! I came to her during a pretty dark period in my life and I’ll forever be grateful to her for all the help she provided me with! Thank you doc!!!!
Was distracted the whole time. The initial visit seemed rushed. She’s very nice but I need your 100% focus and I didn’t feel that.

Masha was professional and so easy to talk to. She helped me through my most current issues with Panic attacks and major anxiety. She really helped me in such a way that I never thought anyone could. I feel much more in control of my life now and able to stand on my own two feet without fears. I owe her everything for allowing me to take control of my life. She couldn’t have done a better job.
She’s really nice. Scheduling may be an issue. She rescheduled our appointment to an earlier date and time...then wound up canceling. Then I was charged for wanting to reschedule to another time.

My visit with her was amazing!!! She made me feel comfortable to talk to her and open up. I felt a connection with her from the first phone call and that means everything to me.

Masha’s knowledge of trauma is unprecedented! Spectacular and wonderfully brilliant person and professional. I look forward to our sessions every week!
After trying many therapists, I gave it one more try with Masha and instantly felt that it was a safe space for me to begin working on myself with her guidance. She is professional, thorough and detail oriented, while providing guidance, support and empathy regardless of how ridiculous I may have sounded. I def recommend her, especially for all the cynics out there!
Talking to this therapist really helps me to open up in a way that I have never been able to before. After each visit, my concerns seem to melt away, and things become extremely clear. Love her!
Masha is an excellent listener. I felt understood right away. She gave me great advice on how to cope with my particular problem. It is a work in progress but I know because of her I have the tools to move forward. I highly recommend her services.
From the sec I walked in I knew Masha was the right fit her warm and gentle manner was so welcoming. I found her to be really easy to talk to.
Masha is incredible! She is direct, which is exactly what I need. I’ve been seeking advise about an on again, off again relationship I was in for years. To be honest, no one has been able to get through to me until Masha. Since then, I’ve followed what she’s said and I feel myself gaining control not only of my relationship, but also of my emotions. Regardless of the exact outcome, I’m now well on my way to finding clarity and strength.
Let me just begin to say that Masha literally saved my life. I came to see her when I was in a very dark place and lost all sight of hope. She has the best bedside manner of anyone I have ever seen and made me feel so at ease. Thanks to her, I am doing much better now and am living a happy and healthy life.
I started working with Masha after I gave birth to my child, and am so blessed to have met her. I was suffering from a severe case of postpartum depression and anxiety, and I do not know what I would have done if it wasn’t for her warmth and knowledge...she literally put me back on my feet and made me enjoy motherhood again.
Masha is actually a hidden gem. She is just everything I would ever want in a therapist. Smart, knowledgeable, compassionate, and so down to earth! I absolutely love working with her and look forward to our sessions together because she’s the real deal.
Amazing amazing professional. If you have any problematic issue, and I have had the whole gamut, this is the professional to turn to. I had problems with my wife, OCD, trauma, and a whole bunch of other intertwined problems. Masha made me feel totally normal and accepted and helped me with each issue fully and successfully. Will not disappoint!!!!!!!!
When I came to see Masha, I was literally falling apart-not only is she one of the most intelligent, kind, and humble therapists, she is one of the most experienced professionals I have ever met with! Thank you Dr. Berkovich-you saved my life an zapped my panic attacks!
