Her\ngoal is to guide clients to regain their freedom and achieve a fulfilling life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shirley graduated from the University of Louisville, Kentucky with a Master degree in Social Work. She received certification from International Institute for Trauma and Addiction Professionals (IITAP) and is a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT). She has worked with sexual offenders, survivors of many different types of abuse, and those with addictive behaviors and low self-esteem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You will find Shirley utilizes various therapeutic strategies throughout the problem-solving process. These include, but are not limited to, Motivational Interviewing (MI) (skills that empower the client to express their concern(s) from their own perspective), Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) (techniques used simultaneously that serve to educate the client, guide him\/her to discover their own comfortable resolution(s), and acknowledge and accept past hurts, disappointments, and uncomfortable feelings.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shirley is licensed in the state of Maryland
