Getting to know Shelene Via

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 20 years of experience helping children, adults, and families navigate life's challenges. I support clients facing anxiety, depression, stress, ADHD, anger management, family conflict, and self-esteem concerns. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and client-centered, creating a safe space for growth and healing. I also use play based therapy to help children build coping skills and work closely with families to strengthen relationships and support lasting positive change.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I use a strengths-based, client-centered approach tailored to each person's needs. My practice integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Behavioral Therapy, Problem-Solving Therapy, and Psychoeducational Family Therapy to build coping skills, resilience, and lasting positive change.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Taking the first step toward support can feel difficult, but you don't have to do it alone. I provide a compassionate, supportive space where you can feel heard and understood. Together, we'll build on your strengths, develop practical coping skills, and work toward lasting growth. I look forward to supporting you or your family.
