I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor who has been in the helping profession for over 18 years. I received my licenses to practice in 2011 prior to that I was a case manager for at risk youth ad individuals with developmental disabilities. I have always enjoyed helping people realize their best self. My personal theoretical orientation to counseling is an integrative approach based on person-centered view that the relationship between the counselor and client is important for healthy change. I will try to enable the client to become more fully and creatively alive and to become free from the blocks and unfinished business that may diminish satisfaction, fulfillment, and growth, and to experiment with new ways of being. I also use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which is an effective approach for many clients. I also believe that a Cognitive (thought process) approach coupled with behavior changes is effective for many clients. I also acknowledge the importance of the client’s spiritual orientation and incorporate their belief system as a part of the therapeutic process. I am always striving to be my best self and I enjoy assisting others in discovering the positional that they have within. We have the ability to have total wellness, I want to assist you in attaining total wellness. It takes courage and bravery to take that first step towards change, if you are ready to take that first step I am happy to help guide, support and encourage along the way. I look forward to working with you and helping you create a life full of happiness.

4 years offering treatment
As a little girl, I always wanted to help people. As I grew up, that desire became even stronger until I decided a career in mental health was the best way to fulfill that desire. That desire was further cemented when I became a Christian and saw how people were hurting. Throughout life's circumstances, I developed a passion for marriages and families although I do see clients on an individual basis. I view every client as unique and will treat each client as such. My personal belief is that counseling should be a safe and productive place to share, and I make every attempt to make every effort to make each client feel that way. My degree is in marriage, couples and family counseling, but I have experience in trauma and substance abuse. I do marriage counseling, premarital counseling and divorce care. You should never feel ashamed to get therapy. Life can sometimes throw curveballs that require you to seek assistance; let me be there for you. I want to see you overcome your issues and find peace in your freedom. If you have gotten this far, you are one step closer to making a decision that will impact your life for the better. I am licensed in North Carolina and Arizona with licenses pending in other states.

My name is Sheila Davis. I have been married for 29 years and have four children. My youngest is 17 and still lives at home but the other three have moved out and are working and building a life for themselves. I was a stay at home mom for 13 years and when my youngest went to kindergarten, I went to college. I went to school for seven years straight, obtaining my bachelor's degree in psychology and my master's degree in counseling. Upon completion of my required supervision hours, I obtained my full license and opened up a private practice. I taught myself everything I needed to know about business, taxes, book keeping, billing and coding and was a one man show for the first year. By the end of my first year, my practice had grown so large, I was overwhelmed with client and brought on another counselor and receptionist. This past summer, I added a third counselor to our group. I will be selling my practice this January and will be moving with my family across the country to North Carolina, where I am in the process of obtaining my license. I am excited to have this opportunity to help supplement my income after I sell my business and get settled in my new home. I work with a wide variety of individuals with a wide variety of problems. I specialize in domestic violence and couples counseling, conflict resolution, grief counseling as well as so many other issues that many people face. I primarily approach with a CBT modality but am able to adjust to whatever the needs of each individual client.
