Sheina Schochet is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Midtown, Manhattan who specializes in working with women, especially those dealing with life transitions, including starting a new job or a new relationship. Sheina mainly works with clients who are high-functioning women in their 20s and 30s, including young professionals and young moms. Relationships and self-love seem to be the overall theme in the work she does, including struggling in relationships, not finding the right person, and/or repeating the same negative patterns. She also enjoys short-term therapy that has a goal in sight. Sheina knows how stressful it is to adapt to a “new normal.” But that’s where therapy comes in. She takes a person-centered approach, meaning she believes you are the expert of your own life. She'll work with you to develop skills that will help you become your best self. When working with clients with anxiety surrounding relationships or new situations, Sheina frequently utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness practices. She wants her clients to become more aware of their thoughts and then challenge them. She may suggest books or guided meditations to help clients continue to make progress between appointments. Sheina helps her clients move from who they should be to who they truly are, without societal expectations. She looks forward to meeting you at her office near the 33rd. Street subway station.
