Finding the right therapist can feel like dating - not everyone is the right fit. I am so glad that after years of searching, I found Shaye! I've been going to her for about five years and she has made a huge impact on my life. Without Shaye, I wouldn't have the tools to navigate my anxiety or depression the way I do now and I certainly wouldn't have the confidence I have now when it comes to making decisions. Life is hectic. For me, Shaye was the stability I didn't have growing up and a safe space to flourish. She's so relatable and approachable that I never felt judged and she challenges me in a positive way. Shaye was my cheerleader and when I doubted myself, she pushed me every day to be empowered in my choices, thoughts, victories and fears. She goes above and beyond to help you on your healing journey - and it's not just within sessions but outside of it too! She has always given me resources to check out (personally I love podcasts and books so she always has great recommendations) and when I needed to take a leave of absence from work, she didn't hesitate to go to bat for me to make sure I felt supported and uplifted. If you need a therapist, I highly recommend Shaye!

I met Shaye over a year ago in search of guidance as I was struggling in my romantic relationship with my boyfriend as well as my personal growth as a young woman. Since my individual therapy sessions with Shaye, I have been able to discover strength and confidence while still staying true to myself. Although Shaye is my therapist, she feels more like a friend that I can lean on and trust. Shaye has the ability to sense when I am struggling on my path to growth and offers kind and gentle feedback. Whether it’s a book or podcast suggestion, an activity in session, or simply listening and letting me know I’m understood, she reminds me that I’m not alone. Shaye has led me from discovering my enneagram and love languages, to learning to be vulnerable and stepping out of my comfort zone. Instead of judging my feelings and decisions, Shaye has taught me to be curious about them which is a transition that I believe has helped my mental health and personal growth. Since I have felt so much success during these therapy sessions, I would recommend Shaye to anyone, especially a woman who would like to feel empowered and confident. I’m so happy Shaye has been a part of my journey to discovering self-love and I am excited for more growth with her.

Shaye was my first experience in therapy. When we met, I had recently escaped an abusive relationship and was in desperate need of help navigating through the aftermath of that. I am quite possibly the least emotional person on the planet, so expressing any kind of emotion rather than “pick yourself up and figure it out” is very very difficult for me. From my first session throughout the duration of my time with Shaye, she instantly made me feel at ease. Since my time with her, I have learned how to allow myself to express emotions. I have learned how to send myself some grace. I have learned the importance of boundaries. I have learned how to listen to myself. I have learned how to process emotions and help figure out the root of why they are there in the first place. If there was an option to give 5 stars for my experience with Shaye, I’d attempt to give 6. I can’t thank her enough for the light she has shed on my life and I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone in need of a therapist.

When I first reached out to [Shaye], I was so scared. I felt unable to control my emotions… The emotions were so overwhelming that I actually avoided therapy and continued to live in fear. I was worried that these emotions meant I was the person that I was convinced I was - a bad one. My initial goal of therapy was to prevent extreme lows and have a safe space to process my past. However, through therapy, I realized that the extremes of my emotions were simply a side effect of trauma. I learned that I needed to heal my inner child and be the caring and loving person my soul craved. I needed to be the safe space for myself to heal and accept. Once I began to care for my soul, heart, and brain, I began to ride the waves of life more gracefully because I learned to give myself grace. [Shaye] has helped give me words and tools to express the feelings I was afraid to name. She helped me learn to not hide or resent the dark times, but a way to process so I could see the lightness again. Each day, I am still working at taking care of myself, but I now have the tools to consistently create a safe space for myself even when my circumstances try to take that security away. I am now the main advocate of myself and needs.

Life can get hard and clustered sometimes and with so much transition and unknown, especially as a college student. I am thankful for individuals like Shaye who are able to help sort through these feelings. My time with Shaye challenged me to set and reach goals I hadn’t felt like I was able to obtain before. She helped me shed light on relationships that were not beneficial to me and were contributing to the confusion and anguish I was already feeling. She was a non-biased voice in my life that was pivotal to the woman I am today. She walked through happy times as well as major loss in my life - supporting and encouraging me in many crucial decisions.

I found Shaye at the height of my anxiety. I truly felt hopeless, but in just a few months I was able to feel somewhat normal again! Shaye is the most compassionate therapist I have ever had; I feel genuinely cared for and heard every session. She does an amazing job at guiding you through problems deeply and efficiently feeling through every emotion in a healthy way. I’m able to ask questions and have her give practical tips instead of opinionated advice. I highly recommend meeting with her!

I can’t thank Shaye enough for the impact she had on my life during the time I was in therapy with her. I was truly blessed that she was my therapist during the most difficult year in my life. I felt incredibly understood by her and was grateful for all she taught me. Healing through trauma can feel incredibly lonely at times, yet with the help of Shaye, I knew I was never alone. I recognized my inner strength and worked towards a healthier self. I encourage anyone wanting to start their own journey of healing to reach out to Shaye!
