A bit about me

Hi, I'm Shira (any pronouns). I'm an LPC-Associate and Nationally Certified Counselor, seeing clients locally in and around Dallas, Texas, and virtually throughout Texas. I am under the supervision of Beck Munsey Ph.D, LPC-S.

I earned my Master's in Counseling from SMU, a Graduate Certificate in Adolescent Development from Texas Tech University, and a B.A. in Psychology from the University of North Texas.

When I'm not working, you'll probably find me playing tennis, practicing yoga, trying a new restaurant or coffee shop, making something with my hands, or hanging out with my wife and our two black labs.

We might work well together if…

You want a therapist who is direct, relational, and actually human.

You don't mind being challenged—but you also want someone who trusts that you are the expert on your own life.

You want a space where you can talk about the complicated stuff without having to explain or defend your identity.

You cuss like a sailor and don’t mind if your therapist does too.

Want to sit on the floor? Let's do it.
Need a fidget? Me too.
Need the lights lower, something to hold, or to move around while we talk? Absolutely.
Need to pace, doodle, stim, bring your emotional support water bottle, or sit in the weirdest position imaginable? Bring it on.

I want you to be comfortable.

No masking needed. No forced eye contact. No sitting perfectly still.

You can just show up as yourself.
