A Safe Space for the Strong-Willed and Tender-Hearted
Who I Work With
I specialize in therapy for adults (18+) ready to create meaningful change. If you feel stuck in old patterns, overwhelmed by emotions, or unsure how to move forward—this is a space to land, breathe, and begin.
You’re Not Alone
You don’t have to carry it alone. You never did. And now? You don’t even have to feel like you are.
If you’re ready to begin, I offer free consultations to explore whether we’re a good fit.
"Resilience, it comes from working your way through layers of pain, fatigue, and reason. Ignoring the ever presenting temptation to quit until you strike a source of fuel you didn't even know existed. One that eliminates all doubt, makes you certain of your strength, and the fact that eventually you will prevail as long as you keep moving forward."
— David Goggins

this is your turning point
Hi, I’m Shaina, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Vermont trauma therapist, and believer in the quiet power of healing.
I specialize in trauma recovery, anxiety, and life transitions. While my training is extensive, what truly defines my work is presence. I bring a calm, intuition, and groundedness that lets you exhale and feel safe.
Clients often say I carry wisdom beyond my years. To me, that means honoring every story with compassion, honesty, and deep respect for your pace and process.
