Licensed Therapist

Shelby Keyworth, LCSW

Shelby helps people show up as their most authentic selves, partnering with them to build the self-compassion and skills needed for a healthier, fuller life.

What makes therapy work

“Healing becomes possible when we feel safe enough to be fully seen, have the compassion to understand ourselves, and the support to reconnect with the parts that we may have lost touch with. Therapy is a space to honor where we’ve been while creating room for where we want to go.”

Patient Testimonials

We’ve been seeing Shelby on a weekly basis for a few years. She’s always polite, respectful, kind, and very knowledgeable in psychology and relationships. She makes sessions very easy with her lighthearted attitude and calm demeanor. My skills and repetition in emotional intelligence have improved greatly with her help. I’ve learned so much about myself and my relationship in our sessions. I couldn’t possibly recommend a better therapist to literally anyone.

Shelby is an excellent therapist, I cannot recommend her enough. I saw her for a couple of years very recently, and throughout that time she was endlessly supportive, and provided good feedback and advice in order to help me become the best me I could be. I hope to be able to book with her again in the future, for her kindness, professionalism, empathy, and smarts.

For the first time I felt like I made some major breakthroughs with a therapist that was attentive, informative, and insightful. From the intake to the sessions, the practice has been super professional and I've recommended to others numerous times. This was a huge improvement after using online options like Better Help.
