Shelby Molloseau is a fully Licensed Masters Social Worker (MSW) with 5 years of experience providing intervention, support, and therapeutic services to individuals in the LGBTQIA+ community, individuals with severe and persistent mental illness, people in crisis and/or with significant trauma history, and people living with HIV. She enjoys working with individuals, couples, and families struggling with identity concerns, navigating trauma history, sex and sexuality concerns, managing depression and anxiety, and coping with life transitions - including career changes, parenthood, and grief and loss. She has worked as a case manager and therapist for people living with HIV, provided therapy and support services to individuals who identify on the LBGTQIA+ spectrum, and worked for many years with individuals, couples, and families as a psychiatric social worker in inpatient mental health units. 

Shelby completed her Bachelors in Clinical/Community Psychology from the University of Michigan-Flint and her Master of Social Work (MSW) from Michigan State University. With years of experience in acute, crisis settings, she utilizes an ability to quickly establish a warm and open connection with clients and employs a number of techniques, focusing on what will best meet that person's individual needs. Shelby's approach is both solution-focused and emotion-focused, pulling on techniques that are strengths-based and rooted in elements of mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT). Shelby's practice is informed by the concept that therapy is a meeting between experts - the therapist brings the expertise of techniques in therapeutic practice, but the client (or clients) bring the expertise of their own experience and what will best work for them. The most effective therapy, in Shelby's opinion, focuses on meeting the client where they want to start and working together to better understand where we are, where we want to go, and how we are going to get there. 

The reality of living is that while all humans experience lovely, beautiful moments - tough times are just as common (and at times can seem to far outweigh the good). Shelby welcomes clients at any stage in life, and recognizes each client may have different reasons for engaging in therapy. Whether seeking to understand themselves, their emotions, and their actions better, or trying to make sense of the world around them and the difficult paths we all must walk at times, or reaching out for support in furthering their goals and enriching their lives, clients can expect kindness, empathy, and compassion in their relationship with Shelby.
