To someone who goes above and beyond and helping and caring about my needs would be an understatement. She is not just attentive but also understanding about all in any situations. Most importantly, I do not feel like I am judged for what is brought up in therapy and for her to come into my life, I will be forever grateful. She is just amazing.

Shelly and I have worked on so many things, I feel a night and day difference with talking through things with her as well as her offering suggestions and ways to handle/cope with situations outside of my control. We discuss intimate things that are confidential that I would not want to focus on with family, but want to be able to talk to a 3rd party about to gain perspective. I appreciate her so much!

Shelly is an amazing therapist. She checks in on me frequently if we haven’t had time to speak in a while and she’s very flexible if I need to cancel or schedule a different time.

Shellys attention and care has been a support I have leaned on heavily in the past few weeks/months. I relate to her and find it easy to discuss any and all topics of struggle or triumph, this transparency has given me a dependable platform for her advice/encouragement/wisdom as well as my own reflection/self-understanding/growth. My substance abuse past and other issues aligned with her experience as a therapist and I emplor you to give Shelly a chance to better help your honest growth.

Shelly is incredible. She’s flexible, friendly, approachable, and knowledgable. She knows how to make you feel heard, and understood. When I began therapy, I had crippling anxiety about opening up about my struggles, and Shelly knew how to patiently make me feel comfortable enough to begin those discussions. My experience with her is one that I’m thankful for.
