Getting to know Shana Maltzman

Hi there, I'm Shana! Taking the first step to seek support is a courageous decision, and I want to acknowledge that. I offer a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed by anxiety or depression, or simply unsure of your next step, you're not alone — and I'm here to help. My approach My therapeutic approach is informed by Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and ego-supportive techniques. Together, we’ll focus on practical tools to help manage symptoms, build resilience, and move toward a sense of clarity and peace. My focus I specialize in working with individuals facing grief, aging-related challenges, chronic or terminal illness, caregiver burnout, and relationship stressors. I understand how difficult it can be to carry the emotional weight of these experiences, and I’m committed to walking alongside you as we navigate them together. My communication style I strive to create a safe, supportive space where you can feel comfortable sharing your thoughts and feelings openly. There's no pressure—this is a judgment-free zone where you’re welcome to share as little or as much as you feel ready for. My journey to mental healthcare I have 25 years of experience as a social worker, with a focus on supporting individuals of all ages facing chronic and terminal illnesses. My work has included caring for terminally ill patients in hospice settings and providing a safe, compassionate environment for families who are grieving or experiencing caregiver burnout. I was raised with strong values of empathy, respect, and non-judgment, which guide me in creating a supportive space where others feel truly heard and understood. My goals for you We work together to set goals that feel realistic and achievable. By focusing on small, short-term steps, we build confidence and create a clear path toward the bigger, long-term changes you’re working toward
