shelby is a preventative mental health professional working in schools. she’s here to pull back the curtain on what’s really happening with today’s teens, why early intervention matters, and how the kids who “look fine” are often the ones slipping through the cracks. from her time as a behavior therapist to now running peer-led support groups across new jersey, shelby gets real about what burnout actually looks like in this field, what conversations she never expected to have with teens, and why prevention is just as important as intervention. if you’ve ever wondered what’s really going on behind the scenes of student support... this one’s for you.
