Noah Shaw

Graduate Intern Counselor

Noah is a graduate student in the Clinical Mental Health Counseling program at SUNY New Paltz and an intern therapist at Infinity Mental Health Counseling. At the heart of his work is a commitment to helping clients develop a deeper understanding of themselves, cultivate greater self-compassion, and connect with their own capacity for growth and healing.

Noah brings a warm, humorous, and gentle presence to therapy. His approach draws from Person-Centered Therapy (PCT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), components of Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, nature-based therapy, and somatic- and movement-oriented practices. Noah believes therapy should be a safe and comfortable space where clients can deepen their awareness, foster curiosity about themselves and the world around them, and develop a greater sense of understanding and self-acceptance.

Noah welcomes clients of all ages and backgrounds and has particular experience working with children and adolescents. He is committed to approaching each client with curiosity, openness, and a genuine desire to understand their individual experiences, identities, and backgrounds. He is particularly interested in supporting clients navigating ADHD, relationship concerns, body image, and relationships with food and exercise. He also has a strong interest in making therapy feel more approachable and comfortable for men, recognizing that stigma and expectations surrounding masculinity can sometimes make it difficult to seek support or openly discuss emotional struggles.

A lifelong lover of nature and movement, Noah values the ways that time outdoors, physical movement, and greater awareness of the body can support emotional well-being. He strives to create a therapeutic space where clients can show up as they are, feel accepted without judgment, and begin to recognize the strengths, resilience, and inner resources they already possess.
