Getting to know Shukairo Baker

Hi, I’m Shukairo, but please, call me “Shay.” I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with compassion, clarity, and care. I specialize in treating ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, and substance use, and I believe in meeting people exactly where they are—with empathy, respect, and evidence-based support. My approach is holistic and collaborative. Whether we’re working through past trauma, managing mood symptoms, or building healthier coping strategies, I tailor each session to your unique needs and goals. I’m trained in EMDR, CBT, DBT, and other trauma-informed therapies, and I also offer medication management when appropriate. I’m here to walk alongside you as you heal, grow, and rediscover your strength. Therapy is a brave step—and I’m honored to be part of your journey.
