Shelly Zebedee

Have you been carrying something heavy for a long time? A grief that hasn’t had a place to land, or trauma that shows up in your body before you can even name it? Or maybe something has shifted in your relationship, and you and your partner keep arriving at the same painful place without knowing how to find your way out.

I am a Registered Psychotherapist with over 30 years of experience helping people heal. I work with couples, trauma, grief and loss, anxiety, and phobias.

For couples, I am a Gottman-trained therapist (Level 1 and 2). The Gottman Method is a research-based approach that helps partners rebuild trust, improve communication, and find their way back to each other. I offer couples sessions in person in Belleville.

In our sessions, we slow down and pay attention to what is happening right now, in your body, your feelings, and the patterns that keep showing up. We don’t just talk about the past. We work with what is showing up today.

I am also trained in EMDR for trauma, anxiety, and phobias. EMDR works with the brain and body to help release painful memories and feelings that are stuck. Rather than only talking about your experience, we process it at the level of memory and the nervous system.

If this resonates, please book a free 20-minute consult. I’d love to see if we’re a good fit.
