I really appreciate Shayna's care and perspective---she has been able to help me better understand myself and my situation and guide me to solutions.

Absolutely loved working with Sheyna these past few months! Made me feel comfortable right away, also to mention, safe. I often get in my head about sharing what I feel, or if my thoughts are going not going to make sense. Shayna would listen carefully to as what I was saying and gave me her full attention. She helped me reshape and strengthen a close relationship that I was struggling with. Along with, that I was struggling with myself mentally and feeling stuck in a rut. Shayna gave me that push that I needed, and in which has helped me, a lot. And for that, I’ll always be/feel thankful for her. For giving me her input and words that will stick with me for a long time.
