Dr. Shelby Ortega is a clinical psychologist serving the North Shore and Metro Boston areas via Cambridge and Salem office locations.
Presently, I serve as a Teaching Associate in the Department of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School, and as an Assistant Professor and Clinical Director of the Counseling Psychology Graduate Program at Regis College. I have extensive training in multicultural mental health, adult attachment relationship and intimacy, and have also completed two fellowships in psychodynamic psychotherapy at Harvard Medical School.
I offer a myriad of therapeutic and consultative services including individual and couples therapy, clinical supervision and consultation at both of my practice locations.
My approach is one characterized by warmth, humor, and the welcoming of diverse experiences, identities, and perspectives. I believe in tailoring the treatment to the unique needs of my clients and providing a safe space that is equally supportive and challenging.
Please feel free to be in touch should you have additional questions regarding my practice and its offerings.
