Shelby Schrader, LMHC, LPC

In over 14.5 years of experience; I have come to understand that we must treat individuals as a whole -- true well being is found in addressing issues in emotional; environmental; financial; intellectual; occupational; physical; social; and spiritual wellness. I work diligently to integrate physical; emotional; and spiritual approaches. I strive to help individuals address cognitive distortions and irrational thought patterns while finding new self-acceptance and self-affirmation. Life is best lived when we love ourselves; and are able to have a positive outlook on the future. I am excited to connect with you!

Christine Sibilla, LPC

Self-care and the health of our minds is incredibly important; especially when it doesn't feel like there is a path forward. Healing and understanding comes from within; by forming a connection to your body and your self.Sessions are targeted to what can help to break through the confusion and help you find a new way to cope. As an EMDR trained therapist; I know how imperative it is to allow the healing to come from within to gain a new strength and understanding. It's time to feel empowered and confident in your own skin; so you can live the life you deserve.
