Specializes in: Betrayal, Depression/Anxiety, Loss & Grief, Significant Life Changes, Trauma Resolution

Introduction

I’m Andrea Shirley, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and founder of Empowered Resilience Counseling. Throughout the process of acquiring my Master’s degree, I was an advocate/trauma specialist and provided leadership in programs designed for survivors of trauma and abuse. I specialize in supporting adults of all ages as they overcome and transform the impacts of betrayal, depression, anxiety, loss & grief, trauma, and significant life changes. I use a blend of compassion focused and person-centered cognitive processing, DBT, experiential, and mindfulness-based therapy. If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or maybe even knocked down by people or events in your life, you do not have to make sense of things all on your own. Working together to combine your inner strengths with community supports, we can identify your risk factors, confirm and build up your strengths, and co-create new possibilities that will amplify your capacity to address life’s challenges, re-center, and become even stronger.
