About My Clients

You are already perfect, whole, and complete now. This is already set by Divine. You just get to remember. You get to understand and feel these words deeply. Inspired action from this honorable space leads to fruit of aligned actions. Therapy will not do the work for you. Yet, it could crystallize your clarity, awareness, calm, integrity, and drive so that you expand.

My Background and Approach

I've always shown to love social services with over 20 years experience on hotlines, in hospitals & clinics, all levels of treatment centers, palliative & hospice home care starting before licensure and degree in volunteer and work, extending to leadership roles after licensure. Populations I'm most experienced with are first responders, service members, aviation professionals, teachers, survivors of domestic violence & sexual assault, elderly, and overwhelmed care givers, though I love growing with many. Specializations are trauma/PTSD, anxiety/depression, grief/bereavement, addiction/codependency, relationship/attachment issues, health/wellness, and cultural humility/awareness. While the primary modality used is transformational EMDR, I also weave techniques of IFS, ACT, CBT, MI, EFT, Trauma-Informed Yoga, Strength's Based, and Solution-Focused when fitting. Steadily, I stand by the ethics of the National Association of Social Work.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Values personally and professionally followed are authenticity, courage, integrity, and compassion. Top 5 tested Clifton Strengths character traits fittingly were Empathy, Positivity, Input, Activator, and Achiever. Lol. Living in South America for two years, leaning Spanish & Latin dances there, obtaining a yoga teacher training in Greece, traveling all the Americas as a flight attendant- I adamantly love learning of other cultures and people. I also always love & appreciate my dear family, friends, dogs, cats, ducks, chickens, green yard, yoga mat, and motorcycle at home. Hehe. :) Now, all the rest is... Who are you? Let's clear who you're not, flow to find your truth, align to build it, and create. Let therapy with Shells unwind to spring forward towards a true new journey to you. You're worth it.
