Ciara Shellman
Therapist
I am a passionate and dedicated clinical therapist and PhD-level social worker, deeply committed to empowering individuals on their journey toward mental health and well-being. My career has been driven by a profound belief in the resilience of the human spirit and the power of therapy to transform lives. With extensive experience in both social work and clinical settings, I have developed a therapeutic approach that is compassionate, evidence-based, and holistic, addressing not only psychological needs but also the social and environmental factors influencing my clients' lives.
My practice is rooted in the principles of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness-based interventions, tailored to meet the unique circumstances of each individual I work with. I am particularly attuned to the complexities of navigating life's challenges in the face of systemic barriers, drawing on my research and professional experiences to offer nuanced support.
I am committed to fostering a therapeutic environment that is safe, inclusive, and non-judgmental, where clients feel heard, understood, and supported in their personal growth. My mission is to provide accessible, high-quality mental health services that encourage healing, resilience, and a deeper understanding of self, leveraging the power of online therapy to reach those in need, wherever they may be.

Sound Mind Sound Body LLC
Psychologist, MPsy, PsyD
The concept of Sound Mind Sound Body LLC is based on an Ancient Greek proverb that in order to be truly healthy, one must be healthy in both mind and body-if there is an imbalance, there is less fulfillment in one’s life. My goal is to help you to achieve that balance. There is an obvious emphasis in attaining physical health, and too often, there is less emphasis on the importance of mental health. In particular, how mental health can be impacted by physical health, and how physical health can impact mental health. Whether you experience chronic illness, trauma, identity issues (sexual orientation, ethnicity, the roles we play)-these are all areas that can affect one’s overall health. As a clinical psychologist, I have years of experience working in all these areas and hope to serve you to improve your well being. As someone who also struggles with chronic illness, specifically Crohn's Disease and PSC, my personal experience can also be helpful in improving understanding and treatment. Asking for help is hard, especially when you are in pain or feeling isolated. It's a brave step to reach out for help. I strive to help you find your healthiest self and to improving your quality of life. Feel free to e-mail: drwells@smsb-llc.com
