About SHELLY
Have a child struggling with behavioral problems or a teen not acting like their normal self? Trained in EMDR, my heart and speciality as a therapist is in working with children, pre-teens and teenagers aged 10-17 struggling with Divorce, Blended Families, School, Bullying, and Anxiety/Depression.
I enjoy providing the child and parents with tools and resources to better improve the health of the child and the overall family system. I also work with teen and adult individuals with trauma, identity issues, and difficult life transitions.
I believe in coming alongside clients experiencing current pain, struggles, and feelings of being stuck to help foster increased self-esteem, and the healing of past wounds. I want clients to experience the freedom and acceptance of recognizing their own unique potential and learning new skills/tools to better cope with lives unplanned curve balls.
