Kirk Shelton
I endeavor to create a context of genuine connection and understanding, where we can explore your unique experience and work towards a more fulfilled life. Together, we can examine your values, beliefs, and patterns, and find ways to align them with your deepest desires. My approach is collaborative, empathetic, and rooted in a belief in your innate resilience and potential. I hope to help you develop greater acceptance of yourself and find meaning in your position in life.
My approach blends humanistic values with evidence-based approaches, including EMDR when appropriate. Sometimes this means excavating traumas, to help make it possible to work with and to integrate into a whole narrative conducive to your own goals. Together, we'll flesh out your story and work to transform sadness or pain into peace and purpose.
