I have been a clinician for over 15 years working with couples, families and children. I attended the Joint Master of Social Work program at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University and the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. I am licensed in both Maryland and the District of Columbia and I specialize in anxiety, depression, stress management and couples.
Beyond this experience, I also have a certification in Financial Social Work from the University of Maryland at Baltimore as I have found through the years of working with families or couples that money can be a prime issue for marital fights or divorce, so this is something that I add to couples and premarital counseling to develop some tools to navigate unhealthy financial habits.

I would recommend Shiresse to anyone. I always feel optimistic, driven, and motivated to change my circumstances after our sessions. She provides multiple resources and tasks to implement between scheduled sessions to continue to make progress towards goals on your own time. She is relatable and real, and I am so glad I was able to connect with her this year.
