Life is Limitless! It can be challenging, and at times, difficult. Sometimes, recent and old traumas might be the source of triggering issues in the present. With individual, group, couples, or family therapy sessions, you can consider making changes in the present. This will allow you to gain new insight about the past, and open doors for exploring your future plans. Self-inquiry through individual, group, couples, or family therapy sessions can be frustrating or “feel” unsettling or uncomfortable. However, such experiences are a part of the stages of change and transformation. Additionally, body based therapies, such as CBT, EMDR, DBT, EFT, mental imagery, or yoga, can by utilized to complete your therapy experience and are available at my Jupiter, Florida office.
Since 1988, Dr. Kathryn Shafer has been the leader in therapy and counseling for individuals, families, couples, children, teens, groups, and older adults. Located in Jupiter, Florida, her private practice approach to psychotherapy is unique and useful for diverse populations and age groups. Additionally, she is an author, professor, conducts workshops, and continuing education seminars.
Dr. Shafer is also the creator of the YogaFun™ program. The practice of YogaFun™ therapy helps relieve suffering and obtain a healthy body and calm mind. As long as you can breathe, you can do yoga! Every “body” is different. YogaFun™ offers choices and alternatives in every session. Moreover, it is meant to examine and explore habitual ways of responding to stress through movement, standing and balancing postures, and breathing exercises to calm the mind and relax the body. The YogaFun™ group and private classes offer individually "prescribed" practices for everyone. The type of postures, use of props, and what to practice is prescribed for each individual person. Age, lifestyle, diet, and fitness history, are all considered for safety, user-friendliness (FUN!).
Her career, as a therapist, has won her the reputation of solid scholarship and as the “go to” therapist for Palm Beach County. Dr. Shafer is internationally renowned as a dynamic speaker and conference presenter. She also provides supervision for mental health and addiction professionals seeking licensure.
