Testimonials

  • "Exploring values was so helpful for me in addressing personal relationships and decision making. It’s something I had thought about vaguely but gaining an understanding of myself and what’s important to me, and creating concrete goals/ideals to work towards, is so helpful.”

  • “I took a workshop with Shelly, and it was wonderful! It provided a space for me to acknowledge a lot of progress I have made in my life, as well as consider areas of need that I tend to overlook or ignore. Shelly is smart, intuitive, and empathetic, and she explains things in a way that is both relatable and nuanced. I would absolutely recommend working with her if you have the opportunity!”

  • “Shelly was a wonderful guide. She knew what she was doing but never seemed “better than” the participants. I like how clearly she explained the process and concepts. This left us time to engage with the material and our thoughts and not worry about what to do or how to do it. She was very inviting and normalized the need for this work. Will definitely take another course with her.”

  • “Shelly brings her intelligence and compassion to her coaching. In our life balance workshop, she expertly guided the group while giving us the time and space to learn on our own. Shelly's wisdom and her genuine care for people is evident in her leadership style. The workshop was very valuable and I'd recommend it for anyone looking to explore ways to create and keep balance. Shelly is amazing to work with!”

    -Workshop participant exploring career change and family planning

  • “Our sessions allowed me to understand why I have had difficult times enjoying my previous jobs despite my passion for the work and population I worked with. The activities challenged me to analyze my relationships with not only my supervisors but with my clients and family as well. While completing these sessions I was also unemployed. Not only did I feel burnt out but I also realized I was not enjoying the smallest things that made me happy. I learned on practicing different techniques and methods to help me have a smoother transition and now I walk into my office space laughing and sharing jokes with my colleagues. Lastly, you opened my eyes about allowing others to figure stuff out on their own and not allow everyone to depend on you. This friendly reminder helped remove thoughts and worries I have about others.”
