Peace of Mind...You deserve it!
Many people say they want to feel content and in control of their lives. I work with individuals who want to make changes and experience more enrichment and satisfaction. Therapy is a relationship that is safe, non-judgmental, warm, and rewarding; a way to find peace. Therapy can provide insight and new perspectives into life's challenges and can help open up new possibilities and options for approaching difficult situations. Some of the benefits available from therapy include:
* Developing new skills for handling stress and anxiety
* Modifying unhealthy behaviors and self-defeating patterns
* Increasing confidence and overall quality of life
* Enhancing new ways to manage anger, depression and moods.
I am a licensed professional counselor and board certified art therapist working for the past 25 years with individuals of all ages. I primarily use evidence based techniques including cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, solution-focused, trauma focused CBT or a combination depending on the need of the individual. Being an art therapist, I also use the creative therapies to gain insight in a non-verbal way as images are sometimes easier than words. I have experience in Play Therapy, Sand Tray and Theraplay. In essence, I begin where you are and tailor the treatment approach to your need. I am will be sensitive to how your individual life experiences impact your decisions and beliefs. This is a journey we will take together to increase your quality of life!

Shelley has been an excellent therapist. She has the ability to bring me back around to important topics when I get distracted. She has great insights and observations. I am feeling so much more prepared for retirement based on the personal and professional steps she has been having me take and guiding me through. I highly recommend her. She is very good at helping you navigate life’s concerns with great insight and moments of humor, which also help to relax me and that helps me to focus and learn from each of our sessions.
