More about Shelby Rusk, LCSW

Hi there, I'm Shelby! I am a licensed (34009881A) therapist with a Master's in Social Work from IU Indianapolis. My approach to therapy is client-centered, drawing from a variety of techniques including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness practices, to best support each individual's needs. I focus on helping clients navigate life transitions, manage anxiety, and build emotional resilience while fostering a safe, non-judgmental space for personal growth. My approach My approach to therapy is both empathetic and flexible, recognizing that each child is unique and requires different tools to feel understood and supported. I use a combination of play therapy techniques, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and solution-focused techniques, tailoring my approach to meet the child's individual needs. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where children feel empowered to explore their emotions and develop healthy ways of managing challenges. My focus I typically work with young children, adolescents, and transitioning adults, helping them navigate challenges related to trauma, depression, and anxiety. I am most comfortable treating clients who are dealing with the emotional effects of past trauma, struggles with depression, and anxiety-related concerns. My approach is tailored to each developmental stage, offering age-appropriate strategies and support to foster healing and resilience. My communication style I strive to create a warm, welcoming, and non-judgmental environment in my sessions. My goal is for clients to feel safe, heard, and understood, where they can express themselves freely without fear of criticism. Working with me feels collaborative, as I aim to build a trusting relationship where we can explore challenges together. I focus on creating a space where clients feel supported in their growth, while also encouraging them to take an active role in their healing process.
