“Shelley Tom is one of the most incredible therapists I have ever encountered. She creates a healing space with deep, attuned presence. Shelley is brilliant at supporting her clients with looking at the big picture. If you work with Shelley, she will lovingly support you to get out of your own way and step into your power. Shelley has many tools and therapeutic interventions she uses to engage clients and support transformation. The most healing part of working with Shelley is the presence she offers, and the way this presence helps you feel both seen and validated, and interrupts the patterns that keep you stuck. I highly recommend working with Shelley.”

“While working with Shelley, I have found that she creates a safe container for me to freely express my feelings and emotions allowing me to feel comfortable being vulnerable. She meets me where I’m at while also supporting me in accessing my growth mindset to work through triggers and issues. Shelley also provides resource to support my process as well as emotional regulation. She is someone I can trust and rely on to bring me back to myself and supports my healing process.”

“Holding space is far more than just a presence or a feeling of being with someone free of judgment, worry, or concern. It took meeting Shelley to truly understand what happens when someone not only holds space, but is a catalyst for space to be created between self and thought. I was able to rest in my humanity while being anchored in the one thing I desired, love and belonging, while I discovered my truth, for myself, free of fear.”

“I came to see Shelley to work a very traumatic event that I repressed for several months. She has an incredible way of holding space that allowed me to process my experience in a safe and loving manner. I never once felt overwhelmed and the tools that she provided me helped me integrate these concepts effectively. Because of her guidance I know without a doubt that I am going to be able to stand up to my perpetrator in a more empowered way.”
