Dr. Sheldon is a well-trained clinician and supervisor who works with integrity, skill, creativity, sincerity and professionalism. As a supervisor, his training was thorough, clear, and sensitive.
Dr. Sheldon has a very good reputation and is appreciated in the Los Angeles mental health community for his work, and for his concern for helping those who could not afford to pay the usual high Los Angeles fees.
I received excellent supervision, training, and guidance, when I was an intern at the Westside Counseling Center …1987-1988.
After many years of being a professional psychologist, I can say that I truly benefited from Dr. Sheldon’s supervision.

James T. Long, M.D. (Psychiatrist, St. John’s Health Center,Santa Monica,California)
In 1984 and 1985 I supervised Dr. Sheldon’s work at St. John’s Health Center in the in-patient psychiatric unit. His diagnostic skills were excellent. His clinical treatment was very effective. I recall that his clinical interactions in the hospital with one particularly suicidal patient were pivotal in resolving the patient’s dangerously suicidal state.
Nancy Angelino, M.A., MFT
Dr. Sheldon’s supervision was excellent in both group and individual supervision. Dr. Sheldon provided clinical supervision at the Westside Counseling Center for both graduate and post-graduate psychology interns from a variety of educational backgrounds, e.g. Clinical, Marriage, Family and Child Therapy, and Social Work. I highly recommend Dr. Sheldon as a supervisor, clinician and person
