Getting to know Shira Pomrantz
***I am not in-network with insurance, so please only book if you are certain you would like to private pay for your sessions.***
Are you a woman looking to develop greater confidence and clarity to improve your quality of life?
If yes, I'm glad you are here.
I am a licensed clinical social worker with a Master's in Social Work from Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey. I provide compassionate and professional mental health care, creating a safe space for you to explore and express your emotions. Together, we will work toward healing, self-confidence, and well-being.
I look forward to working with you and helping you reach your goals!
What should a new client know about working with you?
***I only offer individual therapy to women at this time.***
I empower adult women and teenage girls to navigate life's challenges, through therapy services.
I strive to create an environment where you feel supported, safe, and validated, in order to address any issue on which you choose to focus. Any topic can be addressed during our sessions. I may sometimes gently challenge a thought or behavior which you share but, of course, with the intention of helping you feel better.
Therapy with me will help you blossom into a stronger and more resilient version of you.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
When you are ready, find a time that works for your schedule and book your session.
During our first session, we will discuss what brings you to therapy, your goals for our work together, and we will begin to discuss a plan of how to help you feel better.
I know that the partnership between myself and you is what will help you benefit most from our time together. Therefore, I invite your feedback and will likely check in with you throughout the period of time that we work together.
Out-of-pocket fees and assistance

Shira is everything you’d want in a therapist. She’s warm and smart, patient and kind. From the first time I met her, I knew she was good at what she does. I’ve worked with many therapists over the years and Shira is by far my favorite. Her therapy style is effective and she really cares. She’s had a huge impact on me, and I know she’d never take the credit for it but my life is better because of her. Anyone who gets to work with her is lucky, I just love her.

Meeting Shira Pomrantz and having her guide me through therapy has been a significant factor that helped lead me to where I am today. I was able to talk through my feelings, emotions, and challenges in a way that was healing and productive. Once I was strong enough to move on I was able to have the strength to challenge myself and pursue a new career successfully. Access to therapy and the right therapist is priceless! Having someone that really cares and has the experience to guide and help you is key. Shira was that person to me and I will always cherish and appreciate the sessions we had together. -S.K.

Shira's level of skill and compassion are extraordinary. She guides me in connecting and patiently working with traumas that impact my daily functioning.
The gift of working with her is that I am more connected to myself and others. My life has gone from surviving to some thriving. I look forward to continuing my work with her.
