Sheila’s focus is to build a foundational framework to examine your multifaceted and complex life experiences through a trauma-informed lens. With many people experiencing at least one traumatic event in their life, the imprints of trauma can feel insurmountable. Her goal is to offer support and resources to recognize and address how emotions affect the mind-body. Carrying the weight of painful life experiences along with intersecting identities can feel heavy, isolating and overwhelming. Societal and cultural expectations, oppression, family dynamics, perfectionism, and simply not having a sense of belonging can ignite painful feelings of fear, shame, self-blame, guilt, grief, and anger. These feelings overtly and covertly affect how we function at work, school, and in relationships with ourselves and others. Healing is a nonlinear process, it’s an ongoing life journey that takes patience, courage and compassion. As we examine the layers of your experiences, we’ll build accessible skills tailored to your unique needs and goals to help reach your highest potential. Your feelings and lived experiences are valid, you are the expert of your life.
