Deep healing is within your reach....

Picture
Specializing in Attachment & Trauma-Informed Psychotherapy 
Trained in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy
Informed by the works of Pete Walker (Complex PTSD),
David Wallin (Attachment), ​Bessel van der Kolk
(Trauma, Neuroscience and Psychotherapy) and
Janina Fisher (Structural Dissociation).

My practice is full and I'm unable to accept new therapy clients ​
at this time. For therapists seeking clinical, professional identity development,
practice-building or attachment/trauma treatment consultation, 
please email me at cshawlicsw@gmail.com.

I am very pleased to announce having recently joined
RAIN CITY THERAPY ASSOCIATES PLLC as a partner
in their group practice. We have enjoyed sharing space and collaborating clinically for several years, and formalizing our working relationship is both a professionally rewarding development for me
                                                                                and one that ultimately benefits clients with whom I work.       

I genuinely believe deep healing is within your reach, and that solutions
are waiting to be found within your own strengths and insights. 

    People with whom I work have experienced dramatic or unexpected life change,
job separation, relationship loss--including the traumatic death of a loved one--
complex grief, mental health distress, family substance abuse,
or physical, sexual or psychological trauma.

A compassionate collaborator, my purpose is to accompany
and guide you on your journey toward self-discovery
and the restoration of hope and wholeness. 

    Based on a humanistic framework, my therapeutic approaches include
Attachment-Informed Trauma Treatment, Family Systems, Gestalt, Existential,
Mindfulness-based CBT, Psychodynamic, Motivational Enhancement, 
Narrative Therapy, Psycho-Education, and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. 

I continually re-assess my work through the lens of cultural relevancy
and social justice, both values I cherish.

    Trust and emotional, psychological, physical and spiritual safety
are essential to our work together.  I welcome your feedback.
