Hi there, I’m Shelia Do you feel like the weight of the world is weighing you down? Life’s struggles are becoming unmanageable? Managing family, relationships and job is getting too hard? I help clients find a healthy perception of themselves and strengthen their relationships. We can partner to identify what works and what doesn’t to create a new path that works better. I have experience with individual, family, and group modalities and will use an integrative approach based on your needs. This may include: client-centered, mindfulness, solution focused, and trauma-informed techniques. I truly believe that having a good relationship and feeling comfortable with your therapist is an essential part of therapy. I provide a relaxed casual environment where you'll feel you can express yourself openly without judgement. I will warmly, but honestly guide you through your journey of change, adjustment, and growth. I look forward to talking with you and beginning a process that will lead to greater happiness, less stress, and an overall better quality of life.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, will start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you’re facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow up sessions.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I have experience with individual, family, and group modalities and use an integrative approach based on client needs. This may include: client-centered, mindfulness, solution focused, and trauma-informed techniques.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
