Recovery * Creativity * Play * Transparency * Excellence *
These values are more than words—they guide every workshop, consultation, and training.
Sheila and her team believes:
Recovery is possible when people feel safe, seen, and supported.
Creativity is a healing force in leadership and therapy alike.
Play invites flexibility, curiosity, and movement.
Transparency builds trust—and trust changes everything.
Excellence means grounding bold ideas in clinical integrity.
Whether in a boardroom or therapy room, we bring these values to life.
Sheila’s Approach:
Experiential, Systemic, and Rooted in Connection
At the heart of Sheila’s work is a belief that healing is not just personal—it’s relational and embodied. Whether training therapists or consulting with professionals, Sheila integrates experiential therapy with systemic thinking to help people move beyond insight into true transformation.
Why Experiential Therapy?
Experiential Therapy is a powerful, action-oriented modality that helps clients and clinicians move past cognitive understanding and into embodied change. Through role play, guided imagery, expressive arts, somatic practices, and even outdoor activities, participants engage in real-time emotional and relational experiences that lead to deep integration and healing.
These dynamic methods create new neural pathways—not just talking about trauma, but processing it through the body, the nervous system, and the relational field.
The Systemic Lens
Sheila works from a systems-based perspective—because trauma doesn’t exist in a vacuum. When one person in a family, couple, or team is impacted, the ripple effect is felt throughout the system. Her approach teaches clinicians and leaders how to identify these patterns, map relational dynamics, and guide change that sticks.
"We are all connected, together we can do what i could never do alone."
Sheila’s approach honors the interconnectedness of individuals, systems, and healing processes. Whether working with an executive team or a trauma-affected family system, she invites participants into deeper awareness, movement, and integration.
