Meet Shalin: Hello and welcome. I am a therapist at Olive Branch Therapy Group and a licensed professional counselor and licensed clinical alcohol and drug counselor in NJ. I received my undergraduate degree from Rutgers University-Newark in management and psychology and my graduate degree from New Jersey City University in clinical mental health counseling. I have been in practice since 2015.

My therapy specialties: I specialize in working with adults and teens of diverse backgrounds struggling with anxiety, depression, relational issues, complex trauma, and alcohol and substance use.

What drew me to this work: I believe that all people can feel valued and affirmed as they are. As a therapist, I accept that often one’s current challenges may have more to do with what has happened to them than what is happening. I am honored to provide a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space for others where they can build self-awareness, heal, and learn to thrive once more.

My style: Warm, relaxed, patient, relational

Services I offer: In-person individual therapy and family therapy
