Trauma-Informed Integrative Psychotherapy

NEW YORK | TELEHEALTH | CLINICAL CONSULTATION

Dedicated Care. Lasting Results.

Does it feel like something needs to change?

  • Do you find it difficult to break unhelpful patterns, even when you know they are limiting you?


  • What if you could feel as steady on the inside as you try to look on the outside? 


  • Does your body feel "on alert" even when you are trying to rest?  


___________________________


If any of this feels familiar, you’ve taken a vital step by being here. My practice is dedicated to helping you resolve these patterns and shift from feeling that you're just getting through to feeling calmer from the moment you get up and moving through your life with a real sense of clarity, ease, and the freedom to choose your own way.  


Drawing on nearly 30 years of clinical experience, I synthesize psychodynamic psychotherapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) with evidence-based somatic therapies, including Somatic Experiencing (SEP), Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, and Yoga Nidra. This integrative care is uniquely tailored to help you meet life's challenges with more clarity, confidence, and internal equilibrium.

A Warm Welcome

EMDRIA-Approved Consultant | IFS Level 3 | Somatic Experiencing Practitioner | Former Associate Director, NIP Trauma & EMDR Treatment Service 


I’m Carole Shepherd, LCSW‑R, LMT, RYT, SEP, an integrative psychotherapist, EMDR consultant, and specialist in adult technology overuse. I bring nearly 30 years of clinical experience providing integrative, somatic-informed care for trauma, addiction recovery, and mood disorders; supporting adults with compulsive technology use is a more recent, dedicated focus of the practice. 


My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, including EMDR, IFS, somatic therapy, and psychodynamic psychotherapy. I work collaboratively with you to tailor therapy to your specific needs and goals. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or other challenges, I will meet you where you are.
