Dr. Zoe
Dr. Zoe Shaw is a licensed psychotherapist, author, speaker, podcast host, relationship coach, fitness fanatic, mom to five, and a wife.
She is passionate about helping women who struggle in difficult
relationships—especially that sometimes difficult relationship with themselves—overcome shame and co-dependency.
After 15 years in traditional psychotherapy practice, Dr. Zoe jumped off the couch and now helps women using a different modality: a mix of virtual therapy, coaching services, and programs delivered through a lens of psychology, faith, and a dash of feminism.
Dr. Zoe pens the Ask Dr. Zoe column at Grit and Grace Life and is the author of "A Year of Self-Care" and her upcoming book "Stronger in the Difficult Places: Heal Your Relationship with Yourself by Untangling Complex Shame." She has been published in OprahMag.com, Recovery Today magazine, Forbes, and is a frequent contributor to YourTango. She writes about helping women overcome shame and co-dependency.
You can find her in the media on Instagram: @DrZoeShaw and in most social spaces at the handle @DrZoeShaw.
