🌟 Exciting News! 🌟

Please join us in giving a warm welcome to Shelley, who has officially transitioned from intern to full-time therapist here at Memphis Center for Mindful Living! 💚

Shelley is passionate about walking alongside individuals and families as they seek growth, healing, and connection. Her own journey of personal transformation inspired her to pursue counseling and now she’s honored to support others in finding hope and new possibilities.

She especially loves working with children, teens, and adults navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, and life’s ups and downs. Drawing from approaches like CBT and mindfulness, Shelley creates a safe, supportive space where clients can grow and thrive.

A longtime Memphian (originally from Alabama!), Shelley enjoys spending time with her husband, teenage daughter, and their German Shorthaired Pointer often exploring the outdoors or discovering hidden gems around town.

We’re so proud of Shelley and thrilled to have her continue serving our community in this new role! 💫
