My name is Kiah Shea, and I am relocating back to the Boston Area from the Denver Metro Area. I received my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Pittsburgh where I concentrated my studies in mental health clinical practice with individuals and families. I have worked with the diverse needs of communities on the outskirts of Boston and Denver, and understand how many factors can hinder access to appropriate treatment. I have spent most of my clinical time working with children and families in both urban and suburban communities. My experience includes working in community-based settings, as well as clinic and school-based settings. My areas of expertise include depression, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, navigating school systems, trauma, abuse, health psychology, and pregnancy-related depression/anxiety.
My goal is to help individuals and families begin their journey towards healing. I meet clients “where they are” and value clients’ partnership in the therapeutic relationship. I believe in change and recovery. I offer a compassionate, safe space for clients to share their stories and grow from the struggles of life. I provide an environment that allows for the creation of positive changes. While I specialize in working with children and adolescents, I also enjoy working with adults.
