My Approach to Therapy

My approach to therapy is assertive, goal-oriented, and focused on alleviating psychological struggles, not just coping with them. My approach includes homework between sessions, coaching, direction, and sometimes input from family members. Everything is in service of alleviating your concerns.

My practice is all telehealth. In addition to being licensed in Missouri and New Jersey, I have a special license to practice telehealth across the country. This means that people looking for expert help are no longer bound by location.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • No, but I do understand the importance of family relationships and we may address those concerns in your individual therapy.

  • My approach isn’t just about listening to problems. I take a direct, solution-focused, goal-oriented approach. I do not focus on “coping” because coping sets the bar too low. It implies that the problem will always be there. The goal must be elimination of symptoms.

  • The initial session is $350. Follow-up sessions are $225, and in-person ketamine-assisted psychotherapy is $325.

  • All sessions are conducted virtually to provide flexible and accessible care.

Testimonials

  • "I have been working with Dr. Shapiro since 2016. His knowledge and understanding have greatly helped my transition from a decades long career in the military and all that came with it. I highly recommend Dr. Shapiro for his expertise with Combat PTSD. For many years I cycled thru dozens of professionals until finally arriving at his door. He is humble and works well with many other professionals to deliver the best possible outcomes. Be prepared to see a major difference, results are unavoidable."

  • "Dr. Shapiro has been awesome since the first time I had an appointment. His demeanor makes it very easy to talk about things that are normally difficult to discuss. His approach to my issues has been greatly beneficial. I have returned to him recently with an issue and he is guiding me through the healing process. Very highly recommend Dr. Shapiro. Second to none."

  • "Dr. Shapiro saved my life, and my marriage. I was at rock bottom when I walked into his office. I am now 7 years clean, still happily married, and raising my 3 kiddos! As a Marine I thought I could handle any problem... I was wrong. If he can help me get to where I am, please trust that he can help you. Thanks again Doc!"
