Nina Shapiro, LCSW
Licensed in: Oregon
I am deeply committed to helping clients achieve a meaningful and fulfilling balance in life. My passion for this work stems from a desire to be an agent of change for people looking to improve their lives, and I am dedicated to providing guidance and support as they navigate this journey. My goal is to create a space where clients feel empowered to make positive changes at their own pace.
About Me
I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Portland State University in 1996 and have since focused my career on helping individuals with work/life balance, substance use recovery, and mood management. Using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and motivational interviewing, I tailor my therapeutic style to meet each client’s unique needs and goals. My practice offers a compassionate, nonjudgmental environment where clients can explore challenges and find lasting strategies for growth and resilience.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Headlight accept insurance?
Yes, Headlight accepts most major insurances such as Aetna, Kaiser, Magellan, Anthem and more. To confirm we accept your insurance, please call 800-930-0803.
What is the difference between a Therapist and a Prescriber?
Therapy, often provided by psychologists, social workers, or counselors, involves talking through emotional and psychological challenges to gain insight and develop coping strategies. Whereas, psychiatry, typically led by medical doctors, focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of mental health issues using medication alongside therapy when necessary. While therapy emphasizes conversation and behavioral strategies, psychiatry integrates medication management to address biochemical imbalances in mental health conditions.

Do Headlight providers offer telehealth visits?
Absolutely, all our providers offer telehealth visits so that you can get care from the comfort of your own home.
Can I see both a Therapist and Prescriber?
Yes. Seeing both a Therapist and Prescriber is incredibly common and can lead to better results. Talk with your provider and discuss if combining Therapy and Medication Management makes sense for you.
What can I expect in my first appointment?
During your first session you will meet with a licensed professional to discuss your medical history, current feelings and relevant life factors. From there, you and your provider will work together to create a personalized treatment plan. If you don’t feel like your provider is a good fit, please let your provider know. They can help transfer you to a new provider that might be a better fit for you.
