Getting to know Shereka Shaw
I am Shereka S. Shaw, a Licensed Professional Counselor for the state of Georgia, with a Master's in Community Counseling from Argosy University.
Are you an African American woman who often feels misunderstood while juggling the roles of employee, wife, and mother? Are you overwhelmed by feelings of stress, frustration, and aggravation?
I have over 10 years of experience working with individuals struggling to manage their emotions due to depression, anxiety, or past traumatic events. Using Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, and encouraging greater self-care, I help clients like you develop skills to reduce stress, anxiety, and depression-related symptoms.
Taking the first step is always the hardest, and you've already done that by seeking therapy. Let's work together to create a path toward healing and wholeness!
What should a new client know about working with you?
My goal is always to find and use intriguing and creative ways to assist you in connecting the puzzle pieces of your life as you strive to feel whole. Open and honest dialogue is always encouraged because being honest about hurt and pain is the only way to heal from it. With me, you are guaranteed a safe and comforting place. There may be times you laugh, cry and scream, but in the end, you will find freedom!

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

My experience is great with Shereka. Having someone to talk to about life and assess situations and allows you to process it all to come an action that requires you to think and apply daily. Great therapist!
