Testimonials
"Before beginning my work with Shan, I rarely made time for me. That's not to say I didn't take care of myself, eat well and exercise, but I felt consumed by work and disengaged from my life. And I felt dissatisfied and stuck.
Six months later, I'm able to see the bigger picture and how my action or inaction affects it. Shan has helped me enormously. She has helped me to set goals, be mindful and stay the course."

“My wife and I have worked with several different counselors in the past, but my wife did not sense a connection or a feeling of being understood, which was very disconcerting to me.
Shan made an instant connection, and my wife told me she felt truly understood. Shan has the ability to deeply listen, genuinely empathize and empower women to honestly examine what they would like to change in their lives without being defensive. She became more approachable, loving and engaged as a result. Shan helped us start a change in direction for our Marriage that was truly needed.
We are thankful for Shan's generosity and interest in our lives.”

"I would like to share with you this life changing experience… I always had problems in my relationships…confusion, lack of vision & low self-esteem used to appear like a shadow that I’ve been carrying for my whole life. Then, I met Shan White, she said that she could help me get over that shadow. We had 4 sessions of coaching & she helped me see things from my past and key decisions of my life... During one of the sessions I had this breakthrough about my past, specifically about my father, I believe that my feelings got mixed up when my parents divorced and my father disappeared. But she helped me realize that I didn’t have to live my future based on my past. She broke it down into tangible pieces for me to be able to move on with my life. That was really liberating. I do know the shadow is gone, I do not need to be bound to my past experiences, and I can have a beautiful future with a decent man that loves me as I am. Thank you so much Shan for your patience and care for me, you made me see that I am worthy."

“Even though I am still young in my career, Shan did an impeccable job of helping me uncover factors that were keeping me from fully engaging in my job. She assisted me in identifying ways to improve my performance with attainable goals and resources that have already impacted my career outlook. I would highly recommend people of any tenure to Shan. She is welcoming and understanding, and truly effective at what she does.”
