The Mental Health
Therapist and Holistic Coach at Your Service!
Hello All!
Welcome to the page that tells you more about the mental health
therapist and holistic coach behind the scenes.
I received my
Masters of Clinical Psychology in 2005 and I'm in the process of
receiving
my license to practice as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor
(LCPC).
I am also
currently
enrolled at the The
University of
Metaphysical Sciences to obtain
my Ph.D in holistic life coaching and D.D. (Doctor of Divinity) in
Spiritual Counseling.
At this time, I
offer coaching
services online, but please
note, this is not therapy. I will not diagnose or treat psychological
illnesses; however, if this shall come up during coaching, I will refer
you to a licensed therapist.
My Professional
Experience..
As a mental health
therapist, I've had the
opportunity to work
with children, individuals, couples, families, and the elderly. In
addition, I have facilitated a Family Violence Intervention Program
geared towards helping domestic violence perpetrators choose healthier,
alternative methods to violent behavior.
I have treated
clientele with generalized anxiety disorder,
obsessive-compulsive disorder, major depression, bi-polar, adjustment
disorders, schizophrenia, personality disorders, and post traumatic
stress disorder(PTSD).
My Beliefs...
Aside from my
experience as a mental health therapist, I am on a journey of building
a
relationship with God.
Through this
journey, I am learning about healing not only the mind, but the body
and spirit as well. I believe that our spirit (the part of our being
that's most connected to God) wants us to have a
loving relationship with ourselves.
I also believe
that putting ourselves
first is not selfish. Actually, loving yourself in a healthy way
releases all
feelings of anger, resentment, jealousy, depression, and anxiety.
Self-love
sets us
free from pretending to be someone we are not.
My Hope for You...
Overall, my hope is
that you will take what you can from this site and apply it to living a
life of self-love. Give this gift to yourself, and watch your life
change for the better!
I hope this website
brings comfort in
knowing that you are encouraged to be yourself and to carry this
encouragement into all areas of your life.
I wish you well and
many blessings on your journey of loving yourself.
With Love,
Brandy Shirley, M.A. |
