Welcome! I specialize in working with survivors of emotional abuse/narcissistic abuse and women in recovery. Do you feel like you are walking on eggshells with your partner? Are you constantly belittled or humiliated by your partner and are being controlled or manipulated? Prevented from reaching out to family and friends? Together, we can break the isolation and regain your own personal power and self-esteem. I know that reaching out for help can be challenging, and I want to commend you for taking this brave step towards healing. Together, we can work towards creating a brighter, healthier, and a more hopeful future. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!

Hello, my name is Shurla and I am a Board Licensed Clinical Social Worker and the Founder of Restorative Thoughts Counsel. I received a Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Alabama and a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work from Oakwood University. With over a decade of experience in social services and more than seven years dedicated to mental health care, I am deeply committed to fostering healing and growth.

I work with individuals, couples, and families to help gain insight into what is happening in order to move forward and achieve a more fulfilling and productive life. My goal is to help you understand yourself more and assist you with living a more free and conscious life. I use attachment theory to assist people in understanding how their past impacts their present. I specialize in treating addiction, trauma, codependency, relationship issues, and axis II disorders using a holistic trauma informed approach and dialectical behavioral techniques. My approach blends years of experience, education, and professional training with insight, mindfulness, and compassion. I have received ongoing specialized training in Post Induction Therapy to treat developmental trauma and childhood abuse and neglect. I provide a safe space where we can work together to move forward. I do focused work with teenagers around substance abuse, eating disorders, emotion regulation issues, and other axis II traits. I also specialize in treating adults suffering from effects of developmental trauma including codependency, addiction, and co-addicted relational patterns.

I deeply value authenticity and bringing my humanness into every session. Building trust is one of the most critical aspects of therapy—it can truly make or break your experience - a perspective I understand from being both a client and a therapist. I often utilize humor in my sessions, (sometimes dark humor) and we may laugh our way through a mindfulness exercise or a guided meditation. My goal is to create a judgment-free zone where my clients feel validated and supported, fulfilling the most basic of human rights: to be believed and feel seen.

Ever feel like therapy is just…not for you? Perfect! I love working with the therapy-resistant, the therapy-naive, and even the therapy-savvy (yes, even therapists need therapists!). I'm known for my direct, no-nonsense approach. Consider me your co-pilot on this journey of self-discovery. We'll both be putting in the effort—I'll bring the expertise, and you bring…well, you. I'll be right there with you, every step of the way, offering guidance, support, and maybe a few questionable jokes. Let's make this climb worthwhile.

I am a licensed psychologist in Ohio and a graduate of the University of Toledo. I have been serving children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families for over 35 years in a variety of settings. I maintain a part-time outpatient therapy practice while helping to lead a mental health agency in Virginia (where I live). Originally from Toledo, Ohio, I hope to serve clients who are in Toledo and/or the surrounding area. While my practice will be primarily via Telehealth, serving clients from the Toledo area will allow me to occasionally conduct in-person sessions. I love to help clients have a more compassionate understanding of themselves and others, heal through difficult circumstances, improve relationships, and achieve desired changes in their lives.

I have been in practice for over 24 years. I work with clients from very diversified backgrounds, helping clients to identify their issues, helping them to determine what is leading to these issues, and determining the best steps to address such issues. We will take a look at how your past is potentially affecting your current day and further attempt to work through any issues from your past that are stopping you from getting to where you want to be in life. I provide a nurturing, supportive and motivating environment.

Greetings! I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) and have worked with offenders, anger management clients, couples, teens and adults struggling with ADHD, anxiety and depression. Through a strengths based approach, my clients learn more about themselves thus improving self-confidence, communication, mood and overall outlook on life. I love serving my teen and couples clients via the Gallup strengths test. This test helps individuals understand where their energy is highest and what they value most. It's not about "strengths", but values. I believe one of the best things we can do for ourselves is take the time to truly understand ourselves as this helps us learn to communicate effectively, be productive, overcome procrastination and more. This is one tool of many I enjoy using to help my clients.

If you are reading this right now, you are probably feeling alone or in crisis. Time does not heal all wounds; it just gives them space to sink into the subconscious, where they continue to impact your emotions and behavior. “What heals is going inward, loving yourself, accepting yourself, listening to your needs, addressing your attachments and emotional history and following your intuition" (Yung Pueblo). I aim to create an alliance with you to help you find your voice, tell your story, re-engage your strengths and cultivate new ways to stay mindful and grounded—no matter what life throws at you. I work with adults suffering from childhood trauma, sibling violence, emotional abuse, narcissistic parents, emotional neglect, relationship issues, and PTSD. I am passionate about supporting non-binary and transgender individuals, especially those who have experienced childhood trauma. My approach centers on creating a safe, affirming, and empathetic space where clients can explore their identities, heal from past wounds, and build resilience. I understand the unique challenges that come with navigating both gender identity and the impacts of trauma, and I use a blend of trauma-informed therapies to help clients reclaim their sense of self and move forward with confidence. Whether you're working through struggles with self-acceptance or the lasting effects of past trauma, I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space to process, heal, and grow. Together, we will work to empower you to embrace your authentic self and find peace in your journey. I am deeply committed to supporting the non-binary and transgender community and believe that every person deserves to live fully, authentically, and without the weight of past traumas holding them back.
